What's On Dubai|October 2020
We’re spoilt for choice when it comes to decadent afternoon teas and fancy desserts, but sometimes all it takes is a slice of cake and a good cuppa to make us feel all warm and glowy. Here are eight of the most delicious arrangements of sponge, jam and icing and their perfect partner brews

Let Them Eat Cake!
Tuscan olive oil cake

(DHS130 FOR A WHOLE CAKE)

Where: London Dairy Café

This dessert has garnered a range of diehard fans all over the world and for good reason. The revolutionary olive oil cake is light and incredibly moist with a sweet, soft base and a surprise sour twist. We love the flavours of zesty Valencia orange and Greek extra virgin olive oil. It really is a melt in your mouth delight.

London Dairy Café, La Mer North, Sat to Thur 9am to 1am and Thur to Fri 9am to 2am. Tel: (04) 349 4584, londondairycafe.com

Aseeda Terrine cake

(DHS45)

Where: Mirzam

An homage to the chocolate terrine cake, which was originally developed by pastry chefs in Tokyo, Mirzam’s version is made with a generous amount of caramelised white Aseeda chocolate and is infused with warming cardamom. It’s creamy and gooey texture makes it perfect to eat slightly warm with a scoop of saffron ice cream on the side. Wash it down with a relaxing cup of Shan Lin Xi Winter Sprout tea (Dhs25).

Mirzam Chocolate Factory, Al Quoz 3, 4th Street, daily 9am to 9pm. Tel: (04) 335 9988, mirzam.com

Carrot cake

(DHS28)

Where: Roseleaf Café

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.
