My friend K brought me to a bar in Opera first but we found the supposedly “hip” bar a total bore so we went to Bastille instead and tried our luck there. Bastille reminded me of Malate in Manila – lots of bars, clubs, restaurants, cafes, bistros lining up the streets of Bastille. K told … Continue reading »

Kitakits : Never again
There’s this one club which my friends have tried to drag me to numerous times but I have always held my ground and declined these invites. So I wasn’t so sure why I had to let down my guard and agreed to go there a couple of weeks ago. It’s probably because I have nothing … Continue reading »
Photo Dump: Nasimi Beach
If I were to choose which place I will bring a visiting guest in Dubai to spend the afternoon in, Nasimi Beach will be one of the top 3. It gives you a different vibe like you’re totally outside of the Middle East with its very laxed environment. The rates are a bit on the … Continue reading »
White X Beach and Lounge
The boyfriend and I were feeling adventurous the other day and went to find a place called White X Beach and Lounge located at the Rixos The Palm at the very end of the crescent of the Palm Jumeirah. We actually didn’t mind the long drive as it was a scenic one, however the place … Continue reading »
The Underground Pub.
I like going to pubs than clubs/bars these days. Why? Because one, I don’t have to dress up. Two, the menu is straightforward with no pretensions and won’t be served in a huge plate with things to prettify it which you can’t really eat or let alone need. Lastly, the crowd is normal most of … Continue reading »
Day 109 of 363 blog post challenge: Making up for the lost times.
I skipped two days of the blog challenge, yes. I was so preoccupied with the weekend that I was unable to shoot a short post not even to just post a photo of what I might be doing. Yesterday, when I came home at 7pm I felt like I just arrived from a year-long war … Continue reading »
Day 47 of 363 blog post challenge: Skipping the meme once again.
The Photo-A-Day subject for today is quite boring so I’ll probably just skip it once again. Instead I’ll talk about another discovery in Dubai: The Terrace at Media Rotana. We went there last weekend and it was awesome! It was quite a chilly night but not windy, so the weather was perfect to sit outside. … Continue reading »
Day 32 of 363 blog post challenge: Lazy days
I missed the 31st day yesterday so I’m doing 2 entries today. Better late than never hey! Anyway, so we had a team building dinner last night with some of my colleagues at an Indian/Italian restaurant in Uptown Mirdiff called Mirchi. Indian and Italian cuisine in one restaurant, you probably already guessed it right that … Continue reading »
Day 25 of 363 blog post challenge: THE weekend.
This is THE weekend when I become debt free (paid off all my credit card bills as soon as the salary came into my account). And at this point in time, my credit cards are nowhere to be found inside my wallet and I cannot let myself get access to it unless, otherwise there’s an … Continue reading »
Day 14 of 363 blog post challenge: The Koubba Bar Experience
After the very filling dinner at Al Hambra, we then went to the bar inside the same Al Qasr Hotel called Koubba Bar. I’ve been meaning to bring the boyfriend there for a long time but never had the chance. Again, we were ushered by a very friendly receptionist and then a waiter gave us … Continue reading »
