WHAT’S ON

Shopping for new shades at… Vision Industry

There’s a new home for eyewear in Mall of the Emirates. You have all the big fashion brands, luxury brands, lesser-known niche brands and you can even create your own pair at The Design Hub. Vision Industry also has a mini museum displaying iconic pairs of sunglasses worn by celebrities, including Elton John, Madonna and Elvis Presley. @vision_industry_

Enjoying after-work drinks at… Salmon Guru

Dubai

There’s a reason why the original Salmon Guru has been ranked within the World’s 50 Best Bars for several years running. I went recently to try the cocktail menu and I’m already planning what I’ll order on my return.

Getting my sweat on at… Crank

Risen is one of my favourite cafés. Not only are the interiors absolutely beautiful, light and airy – but the food never disappoints. I recently enjoyed the Risen smoked salmon pancakes, which can be compared to a Yorkshire pudding, stuffed with cream cheese, capers, pickled onions and smoked salmon.

My Tuesdays would not be complete without a 6am trip to Crank, kickstarting my day with nothing but good vibes. My trusted instructor, Nelson Sequeira, always serves the best Brazilian hits and positive energy, that has me pushing myself to new heights in the club-like spinning room. Never have I ever not left dripping with sweat but always feeling on top of the world, and absolutely ready to conquer the day ahead.
