During my Paris trip last week I passed the Shakespeare & Co bookstore but the queue was too long (and it was so hot) so that I spent my time instead with the starlings in the park next to it

My 5 Favorites Restaurants in UAE

Isn't it a great feeling when you go to a new restaurant and everything there is just great? The food, the service, the price? I quickly become a loyal customer when I find these gems in UAE. I have tried many restaurants across the United Arab Emirates, because I enjoy trying new restaurants. But there were many that I thought were just either bad service, or bad food. So instead of talking to you about those experiences, I'm going to tell you about my 5 favorite restaurants!

1. Shakespeare and Co, in Ibn Battuta Mall, Dubai

This is by far the best restaurant I've ever been to. The food is great, and they can accommodate any request you have to ensure you enjoy the experience. They also serve shisha if you're a fan of it, and can do any flavors, and any mix you want. 

But that's not the reason I love going there. I love this particular branch because of the staff there. The kind, funny, sweet people that work there who treat us like friends instead of customers. 

Yesterday, September 7 2016, at 11:55pm, my friend let it slip that my birthday would be in 5 minutes. The manager wished me happy birthday and went to the kitchen. All I see 5 minutes later is the entire staff walking up to me with a cake in hand singing me happy birthday, on the house! These amazing people make me feel like going there is like going home. Their genuine kind wishes make me feel blessed. They get concerned when we're sick, and they're happy when we're smiling, and worry when we're tired.  It's like another family in Shakespeare and if you haven't been to it, I would recommend you go try it out! Tell them Rona sent you and they'll definitely take care of you!

2. Chilli's in Jumeirah Beach Road, Dubai

For two reasons, and two reasons only.

Their delicious Buffalo Chicken Wings, and their Classic Nachos!

I'm a huge wings fan and they're by far my favorite of all the others I've tried!!

3. iHop in Dubai Mall, Dubai

My all-time favorite, covered in cinnamon, weighing at 4 pancakes on a plate, the one, the only .... Cinna-stack!!!!

Yum yum yum! It has got to me one of my favorites cheat meals! 

Not the blueberry pancakes, not their original. Their Cinnastack (without the whipped cream).. this has got to be the best I've ever tried!

Their Buffalo chicken wings are also very good. And as I said, I'm a huge fan of chicken wings, so going there and having both is my perfect cheat meal!

4. Texas Roadhouse, in Yas Mall, Abu Dhabi

The cinnamon butter that they bring out with the yummy bread.... one of the reasons I love going there! And their food!!

Their staff is also unbelievably sweet. Especially Sonam, kind-hearted, sweet and funny!

5. Scoozi, in Jumeirah Beach Road, Dubai

Sushi!! I could literally have sushi every day and not complain.

I've tried many places, but Scoozi has got to me the only place that has more variety than the other places. And I love their crab salad!

These are some of my favorites restaurants in UAE that have made it to my top 5. I love trying different cuisines and going to new restaurants, but I'd rather go to a restaurant with good people around. It's a whole different experience like that!

So instead of chatting on and on, today is my birthday. So I'm off to celebrate! Let me know what restaurants are your favorite and I'll definitely try them out!

Have a great weekend everybody!

I'm just trying to change the world. #payingitforward
