Father's Day, in the UAE, is celebrated on the third Sunday of June. It's upon us, so what are we waiting for? We had a discussion about why mothers (all power to them!) seem to have hijacked the parenting baton, while fathers invariably play second fiddle.

Le Cirque in New York was famously known for having leapfrogged the careers of chefs such as Daniel Boulud. The interiors - built around the circus theme (la cirque in French translates to 'the circus' in English) - were larger than life, much like its committed clientele: Andy Warhol, the Reagans, Jackie Onassis, Henry Kissinger, Donald Trump and so on. The Dubai chapter of the iconic restaurant is way more genteel... Discreet splashes of colour on a lot of white. There's a Mediterranean feel to it, interspersed with upscale Big Apple vibes. The French food has Italian twists - so it's basically fine dining with a touch of rusticity... best combo on a gentle pre-winter evening in the sand pit!
