3Fils: Innovative desserts & new dessert bar opening soon!
It’s my Mama’s birthday week! And boy, were we fed with such goodfood for the past few days.
This week’s dessert highlights goes to 3Fils!
They are an award-winning Modern Asian restaurant in Dubai, lead by Singaporean Chef Akmal Anuar, and are always delivering high quality dishes with quality ingredients.
Currently, he is working on a new addition to the 3Fils family, ‘Brix’ which is going to be a dessert bar, right next door to 3Fils at the Jumeirah Fishing Harbour.
We always come here for special occasions or just to have a bit of relax time near the fishing harbour, while sipping their signature cold drinks and devouring their mouth-watering desserts.
Below are three desserts we tried from 3Fils; unfortunately my Dad’s favourite - African Powerhouse: Ghana Dark Chocolate & Madagascar Vanilla Ice Cream was sold out by the time we got there (must try!)
Karak Ice Cream: Karak tea ice cream, butterscotch, tea crumbs and milk foam. Karak tea is traditionally a hot drink or chai made from strong black tea leaves, spices such as cardamom or saffron and milk. 3Fils has reconstructed it to make it a signature cold dessert of theirs. Makes you want to have a whole tub of just the karak ice cream and tea crumbs!
(also, there’s a bit of theatrics as well, so best to go there as soon as you can!)
Tooth Fairy: Saffron meringue, sour violet curd and blackberries. My personal favourite. I love saffron and I love berries so I usually fight over this dish with my sister. The crunchy and sweet aromatic meringue with the smooth and sour violet curd really balances each other’s flavor profiles so well. Crack a spoon on top of the meringues and make sure you get a spoon of everything together!
Matcha Chocolate: with tea crumbs and milk foam. Another addition to the desserts menu. The tea crumbs (slightly sweetened) really added texture and an overall nice balance to the smoothness of the matcha chocolate. If you’re a fan of green tea, this is the one for you!
Other than the desserts, 3Fils also specialize in sushi (no soya sauce required!), various get-your-hands-dirty kind of food such as their chicken wings and spiced lamb ribs which are literally fall-off-bone goodness! And if you love your Indomie, you’ll love 3Fils’ version of Indomie.
Keep your eyes out for news about Brix soon as they’re still working on new menu items before their opening. I can’t wait and I’m super excited to see what they have in store for us sweet tooths!
Literally, everything is just so good. You will not and never be disappointed.
