Salaam and welcome!
I think I will skip watering the plants today. Something tells me they’re good for a while.
Today, we’re delving into a spot I keep hearing about, despite it being pretty new to town. Apparently, there are queues to get in the door.
Here are your plans for the weekend.
🍽 Eat This
El Primo Taqueira, Al Wasl Road
Their tacos are well-priced (starting at 20 AED) and look absolutely incredible. Personally, I can’t wait to try the beef cheek tacos.
☕ Drink This
Bocasu Specialty Coffee, Al Quoz
Coffee with a Japanese twist. All your favourites, plus a Charcoal latte and a dirty Matcha. Whatever that means. You can grab (some very fancy) food and desserts here, too.
🙂 Explore This
Off-road History Museum, Sharjah Desert
Off-roading is a big part of UAE’s history and culture, for obvious reasons. It’s closely linked to the traditional nomadic lifestyle, camping, hunting, and just enjoying a good old sand dune bashing session. If you love cars and off-roading, this museum is for you.

❤️ Take the Kids Here
Dino Odyssey, Dubai Festival City
Last chance to catch this kid’s attraction, as it ends on March 31st. You can explore a route around animatronic dinosaurs, step into a 360-degree VR experience, and get scientific in the discovery zones
