Willie's Cacao makes its way to the UAE

-
Willie Harcourt-Cooze has redefined how millions of people worldwide think about chocolate. He is a chocolate romantic with a passion for the world’s great cacaos, a flair for all things chocolate and an obsession with antique machines. He shares these passions via his own television shows, cookbooks, cookery demonstrations, talks and of course his ever expanding range of chocolate. Which is now is available in the UAE!

William Harcourt-Cooze himself hosted a special evening for a select group of people where I had the opportunity to talk to him and taste even the raw beans and learn how he makes his chocolate truffles

Want to get your hand on some of these amazing chocolates? You can! Willie’s Cacao collection is available exclusively at Candylicious in the UAE. The new range includes a variety of flavours, making "Real" cacao available to "Real" chocolatiers. Willie's secret ingredient has been widely speculated to be in his cacao beans. By controlling every step of the journey from ‘bean to bar’, Willie creates chocolate with his own distinct style that is all about maintaining the absolute purity of flavour of the bean.

Some of the flavours that you have to tatse is the white chocolate called El Blanco and I'm generally not a fan of white chocolate but this is really good. The sea salt, dark chocolate and orange, and ginger lime are some interesting flavours yo should give a try.

Hair washing and blow drying aren’t the only culprits behind those stray hairs in the sink; breakage can lead to excessive hair loss in damaged hair.

Hair will then grow long and strong again, boasting its usual natural shine and manageable texture.  The Science The new Syoss Anti-Hair Fall* Fiber Resist 95 strengthens the hair from root to tip. It does this with help from a phyto stem cell extract derived from botanical stem cells, which stimulates the hair’s energy metabolism in the roots where the hair grows.

Food Review - Circle Café

Circle Café has proudly joined the re-invention club and launched a new menu recently and I'm going to give you a low down on how well they scored. Tucked away into the quite Business Bay square in downtown Dubai, Circle Café is a cosy hidden gem. The simple and elegant interiors give a very relaxed home feel which makes the food more enjoyable. Let's get down to business then..First up were the Bagel chips. As the name suggests they were thinly sliced baked Bagel chips served with a Tarama Truffle dip. From the first bite I knew this dish was going to be in my top three for the night. They were so crisp and light that I couldn't stop munching. The zatar type seasoning gave it the perfect amount of subtle flavour. For those with a preference for stronger taste, the dipping sauce gives it a unexpected punch which grows on you with every bite. Next was the Whole Wheat Salmon Pasta followed by the Circle Greek Salad, both of which are healthy options but low on the seas

Food Review - Carluccio's and Bloomsbury Review

 The Dubai Mall has numerous hidden gems and every time I go there I stumble upon something new. A little pop up shop or cafe situated in some corner of the mall can always surprise. The places I tried this week aren't very hidden, but this was the first time I tried them. I did come across a new home store where I've never been before, but today we'll stick to Carluccio's and Bloomsbury. Carluccio's as the name suggest is Italian. You have two seating options, one facing the fountain and the other facing the mall (see image below). The service was friendly and quick considering the fact that it was a Thursday. We ordered two pizzas, a pasta and a salad. The margarita was thin crust, soft, chewy and pretty good. They did not have any options in chicken pizza's so we ordered for grilled chicken topping with our pizza., the result chicken strips on top of the same Margarita pizza. It din't taste bad, cause it still taste the same with just chicken on to
