Soho Grill in Lamcy Plaza is the one of the best Grill in the entire Mall. We were impressed beyond words with the food, service, ambiance and the over-all experience that we decided to go there again. The Food For starters we ordered a sharing platter which included TNT Shrimps, Soho wings, Fried mac and cheese, corn on cob and their signature dips. We also tried their Quinoa salad which was garden fresh and scrumptious. The Soho wings looked tempting and being my all-time favorite dish, that’s the first thing I dug my fork into. It tasted as amazing as it looked. The TNT shrimps were succulent and luscious. It came layered in a very delicate coating of sticky Korean sauce. Fried mac and cheese preserved all the ‘cheesy’ goodness inside while having the perfect crunchiness outside. It was absolute delight in every bite.Finally chargrilled corn on cob was super soft and tasty.  It was layered with generous amounts of Mexican feta sauce, chilli, lime and coriander. Nothin...

A review of Matto Dubai When it comes to Italian food in Dubai, there's no dearth of them. Contenders are many, winners are clearly few. While I've tried Italian food in a variety of restaurants, here's one place that I'd never tried before. M A T T O. After a recent visit to this vibrant hotspot at Oberoi Hotel, I can tell that this ristorante is undoubtedly one of the BEST Italian restaurants in the Bay side of town. The Ambiance In a world of copycats, here’s one restaurant that dares to be different.  One of the first things you'll notice as you enter is the yellow Vespa. And no ordinary vespa this! It has a DJ console built over it. Gyrating near it is the restaurant's in-house DJ, whipping out progressive party beats to sets spirits on fire. When you see a restaurant using a prop of one of most powerful symbols of Italian lifestyle, it tells you something!  So, when the wall sign shouts out - “Feel Italian”, don't be surprised. Matto is al...
