Ciao amici! Fancy to have a taste of Italian food in City Walk? Then, grab your phone, wallet, keys and go to Sapori di Bice!
If your friends are asking you where to have a brunch, lunch or dinner, Sapori’s doors are open from 12 noon to 12:30 in the evening and the usual cost to taste their exquisite dishes of Italian cuisine is 240 AED. But, if you’re under house arrest, too tired to drive and deal with traffic, or far from City Walk, they can also deliver the food! What a good news for introverts and on-the-go yuppy, right?
If your tongue is adventurous to try Turkish food and desserts, then head down to City Walk and look for Simit Sarayi!

Winter is coming but it’s not too late to obey your thirst and get some frozen drinks in Enab Beirut (City Walk).
Last week, we went to Citywalk just to chill and catch up with some friends. I mean, cmon, after five days of work, we needed to unwind for an hour or two at least, right? You don’t need alcohol to relieve your stress. Sometimes, you just need good camaraderie and refreshing drinks!
We didn’t come inside the restaurant, for two reasons: good weather and unbearable laugh. Anyway, here’s our review of the frozen drinks in the restaurant. We ordered frozen strawberry, mango, and watermelon rosemary. Each drink costs 25 AED and it’s one of the best frozen drinks that we’ve ever tasted! It’s not too sweet and it has the right amount of ice.
