Dinner a few nights ago at @kigo.dubai, the new Japanese restaurant at the @fsdubaidifc. The setting is calm and considered, without feeling too formal. The space feels thoughtful and minimal, with just the right amount of atmosphere.

They do two set menus — sushi or kaiseki — and we went for the kaiseki, which was a mix of seasonal dishes, some really delicate, some super rich and satisfying. It’s the kind of meal that flows nicely, course by course, and keeps you curious about what’s coming next. The menu comes from Head @chef_akinori — he’s got decades of kaiseki experience and clearly cares about every detail, from ingredient quality to plating.

Definitely not your average dinner out, but still relaxed and not over the top. Just good food, done right. Thank you to the entire team for a wonderful evening!

The two ⭐️⭐️ @michelinguide - @rowon45duba

The two ⭐️⭐️ @michelinguide - @rowon45dubai by @_jasonatherton has unveiled a new menu, and it’s a clear reminder of why it remains one of Dubai’s exceptional dining experiences. Here, ingredients take center stage—pure, precise, and treated with the kind of respect that lets them shine.

Every course feels thoughtful and deliberate, from the first bite to the final flourish, striking that balance between elevated and effortless. The service is as polished as the cooking—warm, intuitive, and never overbearing—while the wine pairings are spot-on, adding just the right note to each dish. A great playlist runs through the night, perfectly in sync with the rhythm of the evening and adding a touch of personality to the experience.

It’s a dining experience that’s refined yet relaxed! Simply put: Row on 45 reminds you what fine dining can be when everything just clicks. Thank you to the entire team for a fabulous evening!

At @dara.dining in Amman, @chef_sara.aqel has created more than just a restaurant—it’s a garden-like retreat where incredible food meets one of the city’s most inviting settings. The venue feels alive with greenery and natural touches, blending elegance with the ease of a dinner among friends.

The wine list is one of the strongest in Jordan, thoughtfully curated to pair with a menu that celebrates bold flavors, impeccable technique, and Sara’s unmistakable touch. From the first plate to the last, every dish feels crafted with both precision and heart, and it’s matched by hospitality that radiates warmth and generosity.

It’s no surprise that Dara Dining entered the Middle East & North Africa’s 50 Best Restaurants 2025 at No.18, taking home the Highest New Entry Award. With its blend of setting, cuisine, and soul, this is one of those restaurants that reminds you why dining out can feel so special.

@moonrise.xyz has just flipped the script again with its new 12-course tasting menu. Helmed by Chef @solemann.xyz, the intimate rooftop chef’s table has had a sleek new fit-out. The makeover is subtle but smart—refreshed lighting, thoughtful tableware, and those striking new countertops.

Haddad leans into stories of growing up in ’90s Dubai: food memories, flavor clashes, and cultural mash-ups. The refreshed menu delivers dish after dish that surprise and delight. Standouts include the new grilled cheese (but naturally), the dynamite 65 (we got two portions of this!), and the fattoush nam jim. And the Moonrise khubz, served with addictive butter on the side, will forever be a favorite.

The experience carries that mix of comfort, nostalgia, and precision—twelve courses of Dubai on a plate. Don’t miss it.

Thank you to the entire team @moonrise.xyz for a truly wonderful evening!

Back at @maisondali_dubai by @tristinfarmer and the new menu is a whole experience. The table-side steak is the star — all the drama, all the flavor, and even better with the crispy fried onion and mash potato on the side (trust me, don’t skip those). The scallop carpaccio is bright and delicate, the king crab is indulgent, and together they set the tone before the main event. Even the simple salad is addictive! For dessert, the peach Melba and the honey toast flambé are both gorgeously indulgent finales. The vibe ties it all together with a refined elegance! Thank you to the entire team for a wonderful evening!

Dubai’s @tresindstudio isn’t just rewriting the script for Indian fine dining—it’s making history as the only Indian restaurant in the world with three @michelinguide stars. At the helm is @chefhimanshusaini, whose imagination and precision have turned each menu into a performance of flavour, storytelling, and sheer technical brilliance. Alongside his talented team, he’s racked up accolades from @theworlds50best to @gaultmillauuae, and every one of them feels earned the moment you sit down.

The experience is as much about the setting as the food: an intimate dining room where just a handful of guests watch each course come alive with theatre and detail. The latest menu is no exception—playful, boundary-pushing, and deeply rooted in India’s culinary heritage, it keeps guests leaning forward in their seats, wondering what twist will come next. If it isn’t already on your radar, make room for it at the very top of your dining list!

Thank you to the entire team for a FABULOUS evening!
