La Petite Maison Restaurant in Dubai

Grilled rib Eye Steak

I just got back from Dubai after a 4-day visit. I went to La Petite Maison restaurant TWICE in four days.  It specializes in French Mediterranean cuisine. The restaurant is located in Dubai International Financial Center (DIFC), Gate Village 8. If you are renting a car, there is a 3-hour complimentary valet service so you don’t have to worry about parking your car & if you are going & leaving by a taxi, you don’t have to worry as there are lots of Taxis passing in front of DIFC. Anyway, after trying several dishes, here is what I recommend you should order:

For Appetizers:

  • White Beans with Truffle Vinaigrette
  • Marinated Beetroot
  • Salad of Green Lintel

For main Course:

Rigatoni With Mushrooms

  • Order the Grilled Rib eye steak, if you are a meat person as it is 400 gram. Since I am not a meat person & the portion is kind of big for me, I like to share the steak.
  • French Fried Potato
  • Rigatoni with Mushrooms: We got this as complimentary as the steaks took a while . You might want to check the price as it doesn’t list the price in the menu.. it says at market’s price. :P

For Dessert:

French Toast with Spice Ice Cream

Don’t waste your time with any of the other desserts. Just order French Toast with Spice Ice-Cream and DO NOT even think about SHARING it with anybody. It’s that yummy. :P On the day of my departure, I went to their restaurant AGAIN with my luggage so I can eat that dessert.  I told them I had a flight to catch & I wanted to leave my luggage with them. They were happy to oblige. I ate appetizers and dessert and quickly left :) It was a risky move on my part as I arrived at the restaurant less than 3 hours before my flight and I left 40 minutes before the closing of the check in. If I had missed my flight, it would have been worth it. *lol* :P

I went to this restaurant 3 times & the average cost per person was between 300-500 AED.

If you plan to go, I suggest calling to reserve as at dinners, the place is quite busy: +971 (0) 4439 0505

Malaysia Trip:Kuala Lumpur Agricultural Heritage Park (Day 5 Part 2)

Pineapple Plants

After we went to Putrajaya, we stopped at Agricultural Heritage Park to view Malaysian agricultural products. It was fun looking at different kinds of trees and plants such as pineapple, Rose Apple, Black Pepper, Cocoa, Coffee, Dragon Fruit, Palm trees, Rubber Trees, etc. Our tour guide arranged for us a gulf cart as the weather was sunny and hot. The tour was educational and entertaining. I highly recommend visiting the park.  Enjoy the pictures below:
