Coya

Planning to visit London anytime soon? You must try Coya for dinner, that is if you haven't already! Coya is a Peruvian restaurant in Piccadilly. The food was finger-licking good! I especially loved the potatoes cookies with black truffles (shown in this photo). I must say it is one of the best dinner I have ever had in London, that said, I felt the staff were a little too keen to get us out of the restaurant, and then I found out that they have a 2-hours turnaround tables policy, which explained why the food (and ourselves) were rushed in! And I'm not sure if it was me or my imagination, but I felt that they seated the guests by their race! Coz all the Arabs were seated at the far corner of the basement. I hope I'm wrong though!

I forgot to mention that Coya is also available in Dubai, I haven't been to it yet but I've heard that it's just as great if not better.

you're not wrong at all, popular places in london have this unwritten policy of seating all the arabs in the far end corner where they aren't seen. and if you're a khaleeji showered in perfume god help you they may make you sit in the toilet.

and again you're right with coya's 2 hr seating policy its applied to the dubai branch as well which i think is very rude especially if you changed your mind and wanted to order more items or dessert.

but i have to disagree with you over the food its good but forgetable, next time you're in london check out chotto matte

Saks In Bahrain

I went to Saks Fifth Avenue store in Bahrain. The two-level store is located in City Centre Mall and has a collection of American and international clothes designers for Men and Women as well as jewelry, accessories, handbags, fragrances, cosmetics, intimate apparel, bridal, and children's apparel. However, I was slightly disappointed by the small selection, maybe because all items were on sale? Or the number and variety of brands were limited? Anyhow, my favourite section at Saks - Bahrain was Saks's world-famous 10022-SHOE salon (shown in the photo below). It had the same look & feel of the NY's shoe salon but of course not the same space. The Shoe Salon had really nice selection and they were all on sale! I have been told by Saks Sales Assistant that they will be hosting numerous special events throughout the year such as fashion shows and personal appearances by designers. Now that's something I'd be interested in! In addition, they currently offer in-st
