Can a famous brand recreate its celebrated Tuscan fare outside Italy?
l Borro’s famous Tuscan estate has more than 1,000 years of rich history, and is set amongst a sprawling 700-hectare estate. Il Borro Tuscan Bistro Dubai has opened in a one-month-old hotel sitting behind a turtle rehabilitation lagoon. While their locations may be worlds apart, there’s one element that remains constant: the use of authentic Tuscan cooking methods to create fine Italian fare.
Everything is homemade. We’re told that not a single canned item is used in cooking, and everything from the olive oil to the grape is made organically on the Il Borro estate. Even the vegetables come from the farm, and arrive in shipments to Dubai every three days.

HOW NOT TO LOSE YOUR COOL THIS SUMMER
This is a city that works hard, plays hard, but, on a boiling hot day, can feel like hard work. So look at this month’s magazine as a little cooling comfort pack to see you through the summer season. Let yourself be whisked off to our favourite indoor bars and hideaways – with AC, summery feels and maybe an ice-cold drink to keep you chill. Then dream of refreshing dishes to fill your belly. You’ve never had it so cool.
