Calzone Pizza - Dhs 40, Carluccios Deira City Center

Calzone Pizza - Dhs 40 
Calzone Pizza - A folded pizza stuffed with tomato sauce, stuffed turkey ham, spinach, roasted peppers, ricotta and mozzarella. 

When I ordered the pizza, I had no clue the pizza was coming folded. Surprised to see the shape and the suspense hidden inside made my dinner interesting. It's a good one but lot of cheese. So you need to love cheese to love it more. The locked side of the pizza is a bit thick and some might not eat it. 
Good to try, something different!

Cajun Ribeye - Dhs 76, Chilis Dubai

Cajun Ribeye Steak - Dhs 76
 Cajun Ribeye - 12 oz. grilled ribeye seasoned with Cajun spices and topped with Cajun butter.

One of those nights where we enter with high expectation and end up low. Honestly could have been better. It was a steak that i wouldn't order again. The steak was more of gum and the Cajun spices on top of steak made it worse. The sides were more fun to eat. The corn and those sweet potato fries was good.

Bagel B.E.L.T - Dhs 18, Tim Hortons - City Centre, Dubai


Bagel Belt - Dhs 18

Bagel Belt: turkey sausage, a seasoned egg patty, fresh lettuce, ripe tomato and processed cheese

You could opt for beef instead of turkey. My first breakfast at Tim Hortons. Bagel Belt is supposed to be a top order in their breakfast menu. It was good but not sure if it's worth Dhs 18.  
Grilled Panini was boring next to Bagel Belt. 
five layers of Bagel Belt

Grilled Turkey Pannini - Dhs 16

Grilled Panini - Smoked turkey, tomatoes, red onions and processed mozzarella cheese and chipotle sauce in whole wheat bread.
Strawberry Banana and Mixed Berry Fruit smoothies - Dhs 17 each

Made with a full serving of fruit and available in two flavors. Strawberry Banana and Mixed Berry real Fruit Smoothies. You can add yoghurt to your smoothie for Dhs 3.

Mushroom Risotto - Dhs 49, Cafe Bateel - Dubai Mall

Mushroom Risotto - Dhs 49
Mushroom Risotto - Farro wild wheat risotto with sauteed wild mushrooms, onions, garlic, parsley, labneh and parmesan cheese.

Love it and will have it again. Once again, their portion is less. Don't expect your stomach to be full. You need to have desserts to fill in that incomplete ;)  That wafer you see on top of Mushroom Risotto is actually cheese.

Chicken Fusilli - Dhs 52, Bateel Cafe - Dubai Mall











Chicken Fusilli - Dhs 52Chicken Fusilli - Spiral shaped pasta with chicken, mushrooms, garlic and parsley in a labneh sauce.

My first main course at Bateel Cafe. Chicken Fusilli was lovely. It was presented well, tasted well too. The labneh sauce was top notch and was the main ingredient that pulled up the taste on this dish. The only complaint i have portion is tiny. You will have to order something more to fill your stomach. The date bread was my favourite among the breads they provided.
