    Life

    by Sarah Joseph
    7 mins ago

    His Highness Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, Vice President of the UAE and Ruler of Dubai added yet another Italian restaurant on our roster this year.
    Known for his culinary expeditions around Dubai, Sheikh Mohammed was spotted along with other members of the Royal family walking outside Scalini Cucina in Dubai Mall yesterday.
    After opening its doors this year at Dubai Mall, this Italian gem is known for its irresistible home-cooked dishes crafted to perfection. The restaurant was born to redefine casual Italian dining in Dubai.

    A the heart of Scalini Cucina lies its pizzeria, where the artistry of Neapolitan and Roman pizza-making comes to life. Diners can enjoy the perfect blend of thick pillowy crust, typical of Naples and a thin, crispy base that is the hallmark of Rome. Prepared with the finest and freshest ingredients, each pizza is a unique and unforgettable ode to the essence of Italy.
    To end on a sweet note, guests can indulge in the restaurant’s signature Tiramisu. From the signature Maritozzo, classic Tiramisu, Cannoli Siciliani and freshly whipped gelatos, each dessert is a true testament to the rich pastry heritage found in pasticcerias throughout Italy, offering a taste of nostalgia and a delicious glimpse into the country’s culinary history.
    With a plethora of restaurants available in Dubai, it can be hard to choose where to go, however, the Royals know exactly where to visit. If you’re looking for somewhere to dine at then, these restaurants are a must-visit.
    Previous restaurants visited this year

    His Highness Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum visited bkry on 12 June 2024, and the restaurant posted the following caption to its official Instagram account: “We were honoured yesterday by the visit of HH. Sheikh Mohammed Bin Rashid Al Maktoum @alserkalavenue. We are beyond thankful for your continued support.”
    The Dubai Ruler was also spotted at the outpost of the Cipriani Dolci on Wednesday January 10 with a group. The Cipriani name is firmly a family legacy, with four generations of the Italian Cipriani family building a single restaurant that opened in 1931 into a renowned hospitality brand all over the world. In the UAE, Cipriani’s upscale Italian restaurants can be found in various locations – DIFC in Dubai and Yas Marina, Abu Dhabi.
    So if you’re ever in need of trying out a new restaurant, Sheikh Mohammed is well-versed with the best restaurants in Dubai.

    Experience a rare artistic opportunity with HSBC at Abu Dhabi Art Fair

    Life

    by Team Emirates Woman
    2 hours ago

    IN PARTNERSHIP: For all the art enthusiasts, HSBC is now showcasing a rare opportunity to enjoy exclusive artworks at its first international exhibition at Abu Dhabi Art Fair.
    Selected from more than 4,000 works of art, the exclusive display has been carefully curated by Amnah Al Ghanim, co-founder of Menat Contemporary. Titled The Evolving Self, the exhibition is taking place until November 24, 2024 held in the HSBC Collection Space at Abu Dhabi Art Fair, Manarat Al Saadiyat.
    Presenting five diverse, yet cohesive works, this one-of-a-kind exhibition encourages visitors to consider the human experience across borders, while highlighting the global nature of the collection itself. Bringing together the works of Omar Ba, Mandy El Sayegh, Makiko Kudo, Lucia Laguna, and Jadé Fadojutimi in an exploration of how self-identity is shaped, each artist offers a distinct perspective on the perpetual fluidity of the self in the wider context of culture, memory, environment, and history.

    “All of these artists have broken new ground as they paved the way in their careers, and their art works have strong messages behind them,” says Al Ghanim.
    While shedding light on diversity, each piece is united by a theme of connection and self-identity in a globalised world. Comprising five trailblazing artists with authentic voices, the exhibition represents HSBC’s global footprint and underscores its commitment to meaningful connection with the local art sector, and to opening up a world of opportunity for its multi-faceted communities.
    By growing year after year, HSBC’s first art acquisition has amplified since 1923 to currently having a count of more that 4,000 works of art.

    Daniel Lancaster, Global Art Manager for HSBC, said, “This marks an exciting moment in the 101-year history of the HSBC art collection, as it’s the first time that our works will be shown in the Middle East.”
    The pieces on display shed light on the following.
    Featuring White Grounds (The Sun), by Mandy El-Sayegh
    The artist was was born in Malaysia, having later spent her early childhood in Sharjah, UAE, before settling in the UK at a young age. Having a Chinese mother, her background is referenced in her works, with integrates diverse media including her own drawings, found materials, newspaper and magazine scraps, her father’s calligraphy and occasionally Chinese characters
    The Adorning Self, by Jadé Fadojutimi
    This British Nigerian artist, refers to her paintings, often monumental in scale, as emotional landscapes. Her colourful paintings portrays emotion, identity and a continuous quest for self-understanding. Japanese culture, and particularly artist Maikio Kudo, has been a significant influence in her work. Jadé is the youngest artist ever to be acquired for the Tate permanent collection.
    Champ de Riz a Kidal (Rice Field in Kidal), by Omar Ba
    Senegalese artist Omar Ba emphasises the tension between history and contemporary identity in his mixed media paintings, with imagery open to interpretation. Humanity’s fraught relationship with the natural world is a recurring theme within his work, which often includes African symbolism and social and political motifs.

    Paisagem, by Lucia Laguna
    Brazilian artist Lucia Laguna’s works celebrate the lush ecosystems found in her home country. Her paintings and collages demonstrate her keen observations of her surroundings in Rio de Janeiro’s sprawling North Zone, where the favelas inform her depiction of the relationship between environment and identity. HSBC acquired this work during Laguna’s first UK show, at the age of 83, recognising the artwork’s international appeal and the artist’s gift for speaking to people across the world.
    Becoming a Field, by Makiko Kudo
    The artists pieces are identified through expressive brushwork, vivid colours, and nostalgic motifs in surreal landscapes. The social context of growing up in Japan and themes of childhood are central to Kudo’s oeuvre, blurring boundaries between memory and history. Exploring quiet tensions, Kudo’s paintings investigate the coexistence of melancholy and peace, youth and maturity, reality and imagination, and invites viewers to reflect on how identity is formed and transformed.

    During Prohibition, from the 1920s’ jazz thrived in illegal speakeasies where people came to drink, dance, and listen to live performances.
    Early on it began as a hybrid of African rhythms, European harmonies, and American culture. However, it quickly became a vehicle for self-expression, improvisation, and artistic innovation.

    Everything to know about Neymar Jr’s Dhs200 million penthouse in Dubai

    Emirates Man

    by Ruman Baig
    37 seconds ago

    Brazilian football sensation Neymar Jr. has cemented his status not just on the pitch but also in the world of luxury real estate.
    The global star recently made headlines with the purchase of a Dhs200 million penthouse in Dubai’s exclusive Bugatti Residences by Binghatti, marking his entry into one of the most exclusive residential projects in the world.
    A “Sky Mansion” in the Making
    Neymar’s new penthouse, dubbed the “Sky Mansion,” is situated in Dubai’s Business Bay district. Currently under construction, the Bugatti Residences are the automaker’s first branded residential project, set to open in 2027. Designed to embody the opulence and exclusivity synonymous with Bugatti, the penthouse offers an array of standout features, including:

    A private car elevator capable of transporting vehicles directly to the residence.
    A private swimming pool with panoramic views of downtown Dubai.
    Access to Business Bay’s first-ever French Riviera-inspired private beach.

    The development consists of 182 bespoke units, each uniquely designed to ensure no two apartments are alike. The architectural concept emphasizes individuality, catering to the world’s most discerning high-net-worth buyers.
    Dubai’s Branded Residence Boom
    The purchase underscores Dubai’s growing reputation as a hub for ultra-luxury real estate. The city leads the global market for branded residences, offering a blend of architectural innovation, exclusivity, and high-profile celebrity appeal.

    Bugatti Residences, in particular, has shattered records, including achieving the highest rate per square foot in Business Bay at AED 9,674. With luxurious amenities such as a fitness club, members-only lounges, and a private pool, it’s no wonder the project has attracted icons like Neymar.
    What’s Next for Neymar?
    The footballer’s latest investment also fuels speculation about his career trajectory. Rumors of Neymar joining Major League Soccer’s Inter Miami in 2025 continue to swirl, coinciding with the expiration of his current contract with Saudi Pro League club Al Hilal. While he remains focused on his game, his eye for high-value real estate suggests a strategic diversification of his portfolio.

    Luxury Redefined
    Neymar’s acquisition reflects the allure of Bugatti Residences as one of the world’s most prestigious addresses. With its innovative design, exclusive amenities, and status as a branded luxury development, the project sets a new standard for ultra-luxurious living. For Neymar, this is more than just a home—it’s a statement.

    As Dubai continues to attract celebrities and global elites, projects like Bugatti Residences are redefining the city’s real estate landscape, solidifying its place as a haven for luxury investments. Neymar’s “Sky Mansion” is a testament to the city’s unmatched appeal to those who demand the very best.

    Why National Day is now known as Eid Al Etihad

    Life

    by Mehral Sadat
    6 mins ago

    The United Arab Emirates is close to celebrating the 53rd year of its union (now titled as Eid Al Etihad).
    This year, the organising committee has announced that this special day will be titled ‘Eid Al Etihad’. A name which commemorates the 1971 unification of the seven Emirates in establishing a nation based on shared commitments and vision.
    The renaming of this day offers an opportunity to reflect on the country’s history. To think that a nation reaching its 53rd year as a country and come so far in the modern world at lightning speed deserves the time to be acknowledged and honoured.
    In a world which goes through never ending change, and increasing developments in all fields, the UAE has managed to hit every goal. It has managed to excel in the creation of an environment which is safe, multi-cultural, educational and ambitious for both its residents and visitors.

    Eid Al Etihad is a day to celebrate the UAE’s heritage of deep-rooted traditions. The remembrance of a shared union has allowed for rich cultural diversity, inclusivity, and a remarkable journey for all of its people. There will be all types of celebrations and activities in all the Emirates to participate in.
    To reflect back on the centuries where people roamed the deserts and mountains. Tendering to their animals and date trees. Navigating the sea looking for pearls and fish, concurrently creating trade routes to open its doors to a world bigger than its ever known. It grew, like its horses and falcons, roaming around the land. Spreading its wings to fly into a world that led Sheikh Zayed and the Founding Fathers in building a unified state.

    Eid Al Etihad is for remembrance. It is for honor. For tradition. Lastly, for the vision which has not changed since its founding: union.
