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.

      Eid Al Etihad: Why the UAE National Day has a new name?

      by

      Life

      by Mehral Sadat
      6 seconds 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.

      Cartier and d3 come together to celebrate Eid Al Etihad

      by

      Life

      by Mehral Sadat
      5 mins ago

      Cartier and Dubai Design District have come together in celebration of Eid Al Etihad with a vibrant programme titled Al Manama by Cartier.

      Everything to know about the Al Manama exhibition
      The Al Manama exhibition opens on Friday 22nd November until the 3rd of December. The exhibit will include a variety of programmes ranging from panel discussions and creative collaborations featuring local Emirati creatives. Situated between buildings 9 and 10 of d3, you can partake in the exhibition in the three manamas conceptualized by local architects Ahmed and Rashid bin Shabib in collaboration with Cartier.
      The structures are a product of reimagining Emirati architecture from a contemporary lens, showcasing modernity in the preservation of the UAE’s heritage. The main manama hosts the programmes. The second one consists of a standing conversation pit and projector displaying past pictures of buildings, the sea, boats and people as a way to remember and reflect. The third manama is for the book enthusiasts. Containing a variety of different books related to the UAE and its history.

      Al Manama by Cartier: Revisiting Typologies
      The first day of the exhibition consisted of a panel titled Al Manama: Revisiting Typologies. It began with opening speeches from Khadija Al Bastaki, Senior Vice President of d3 and Caroline Dumont Frotiee, Managing Director of Cartier UAE. Shortly after, the panel welcomed moderator Adina Hempel and speakers Ahmed and Rashid bin Shabib.
      In a reflective discussion on the practice of architecture, Ahmed and Rashid discussed the idea of an analogue social network. The Manama is a century old structure that has been revisited for the collaboration. Traditionally, it was a way for people to keep cool during the summertime.

      The panel sparked an interesting dialogue about the architecture and the culture. In a modern world where everything shifts quickly, emerging technologies constantly arise, how do we preserve some of the ‘lost art’ of creating?
      The answer to this question depends on who one might ask. The first step is always to revisit the past. As Ahmed and Rashid have done so by asking their grandmother to conceptualise these manamas in the Design District. Indeed one must find prior knowledge in order to be inspired. To create a new way of looking at old things, just like Jacques Cartier did (who visited the Dubai in 1912). He left with pearls that ultimately shifted the trajectory of Cartier.

      In an effort to celebrate Eid Al Etihad, we encourage you to visit the exhibition. Interesting discussions and programmes being held, where you are guaranteed to learn something about this place we call home.
