Drop Dubai

We're always on the lookout for a good coffee place, and after looking for some new places online, the name 'Drop' seemed really catchy, so we decided to check it out. 
You get the aroma of coffee even before you enter the cafe, and the feeling is heavenly.

 Their speciality is the slow brewed coffe, and so we ordered the cold chemex pour over. This one was really good. Poured over ice, I really enjoyed it.

 In the mood for some regular hot coffee, my friend ordered a cappuccino. This one wasn't all that good, and we didn't quite like it.

 Wanting something sweet, we decided to order a brownie too; chose the fudge brownie. It tasted okay. It was just a tiny piece, and priced at AED 12, which we did not find worth it at all.

 The ambiance though was good. I think it was the aroma that I really liked. Also, the seating is innovative. They've got tables for two like the one pictured below, and stools too.

 The place was a bit crowded and felt understaffed as we waited patiently to order. Also, parking was a bit hard to find even on a weekday evening.
You can go there for the aroma of the coffee and a slow brew if you like that; otherwise it is a bit of a let down.

 The way they wrote their wifi password was really cool. It was among the list of items that they serve. Can you spot it in the picture below?

Baku food : What did I eat in Azerbaijan?

Image
Azerbaijani food has a lot of Middle Eastern influence, and a lot of dishes are variations of those you get in the Middle East. There were a few good local restaurants I visited, and a few others too. I'm going to talk about all of these in this post.  The name of the dishes may be a bit different in Azeri (language), and some might just be a translation / description of the dish. You can click on the name of the restaurant to get the exact location.   Burc Qala [well known for Azeri cuisine]:- This is located in the heart of the city - Icheri Shehr (which means Old City). While walking through the old forts in this area, we came across this restaurant. The interiors feel really traditional. Also, a lot of shades of red are used. Here, I had the qutab , which is a very famous local dish; more of a snack. It is made from thinly rolled dough, and has filling inside. It usually has two variants - minced meat, and mixed greens. I had both and they were delicious. Both felt r

Indo-Arab menu at Ashiana

Image
Ashiana is an Indian restaurant located in Sheraton beside Dubai Creek. Recently it has got a new head chef - Joseph Yohanna - and has started its Indo-Arab menu; and we were among the first ones invited to try it out.  This was my first time visiting this outlet, and as soon as I entered, the ambiance felt classy. They've got live Indian music too (bollywood, and ghazals), so if you're a fan, you'll love it, otherwise it might be a bit too loud.  We started off with some pani-puri fruit juice shots . In this, instead of the regular pani, there was a mango-based fruit juice. The taste wasn't bad by itself, but if you're in the mood for pani-puri, then this doesn't quite hit the spot.  After this, all the items were Indian, with an Arabic twist to it.  We had a soup which was called dejaj (chicken) shorba . In a bowl were small pieces of chicken, and a bread-stick tempered with cumin, over which we poured the broth that was served separately. It

Oakberry Acai Bowls

Image
This is a Brazilian brand which has 200 outlets worldwide and has recently started in Dubai with 8 outlets. They invited me to try out their outlet in Citywalk. Most of their outlets here are kiosks but this is a comparatively bigger one. The ambience is nice and they've used a green and purple colour scheme which gives a bit of a earthy vibe.  You can customize your acai bowl or smoothie with the various ingredients that they have.  We took one with Acai, chia seeds, almonds, hazelnut, and strawberry. It was nice and healthy, although colder than usual. If you have it quickly, you might get a brain-freeze.  In the other one we had acai with condensed milk, strawberry, almonds and chia seeds. I liked the flavour of the condensed milk in this one.  It's a good place especially if you like to have something healthy.  Click here to salivate
