    8 mins ago

    There’s no denying that supper clubs have harboured a newfound momentum in this part of the world.
    To recover from a socially distant world, this concept garners all the traits of a refined social experience, combined with everyone’s love for food.

    The concept of the supper club has roots in earlier European dining traditions, but the American version became popular during Prohibition, when many clubs operated as speakeasies. These venues typically served multi-course meals and often featured locally sourced foods, particularly in farming communities. The focus was on leisurely dining, with a relaxed, yet upscale atmosphere.
    Overall, supper clubs peaked in popularity during the mid-20th century, but many classic clubs still exist, particularly in Wisconsin, where the tradition remains strong. Today, modern interpretations of supper clubs have revived the concept in urban areas, blending gourmet cuisine with a retro, communal dining experience.
    Creating a new dining experience in Dubai, Emirates Woman has curated a guide of all the supper clubs you need to try.

    This is one of the first supper clubs in Dubai. Kuv’s Secret Supper Club really paved the way for the popularity of the concept. Working on an invite-only basis, there’s something new to try on every visit. Headed by chef Kuv, the evening comprises of inciteful conversations, laughter and an exotic take on traditional dishes. Also, having gone through a few iterations since its inception, each meal is sure to make a lasting impression for all its visitors.

    Founded by chef Gabriella Grasser, this supper club presents her fascinating travel experiences on a plate. Born to break down the barriers of socializing, the evening comprises of healthy fun dishes from Nicaragua, presented with a twist. By breaking the notion of healthy food being boring, Gabriella managed to create a niche set of her own, bringing like-minded individuals from the globe over together to share their stories. From gluten-free waffles to passion fruit ceviche, a succulent menu is created for each visit with an array of flavours.

Characterised as Banksy of the culinary world, this exclusive supper club works on a first direct message first server basis, making it even more interesting. Each dinner can be hosted for up to eight guests and will most likely need to be booked days in advance as they’re fully booked before you know it.

    This underground dining experience is sure to tingle your palate. With a range of dishes varying from the burnt basque cheesecake to green gazpacho, each experience out beats the other. Started by a couple, this concept brings the best out of each meal with an experimental take on each dish. With more than just a sit-down meal, the founders are also keen to share their recipes and learn from all those who visit. To book a spot, stay tuned for the dates on their Instagram page and DM accordingly.

    Bringing home-cooked coastal cuisine directly to your plate, this concept fits perfectly as Dubai continues to be a melting pot of different cultures. Each dish is travel influenced and is guaranteed to leave the guests wanting for more. Having refined the concept since its inception, there’s no doubt that it has gained immense popularity in the UAE with people from all nationalities coming to enjoy it. This supper club is a delight for all the seafood lovers out there, no matter what their ethnicity.

    There’s an element of nostalgia with each dish served. From the famous Kunafa’s to popular dishes from the Levantine cuisine, this vibrant experience is one to savour after a long week. By expanding into private dinners and events, this concept has become a niche in the market. Having previously introduced pop-ups including Iftars at Alserkal Avenue, each dish is an ode to Chef Halawa’s hometown. There are bespoke menus also created for special occasions.
    As most of these concepts are hosted on an intimate scale, it’s always best to stay tuned for the latest dates and DM the page before it’s too late.

    Do you have high cortisol levels? 5 simple ways to combat it

    Life

    by Ruman Baig
    2 mins ago

    Feeling frazzled? You’re not alone. Daily pressures can send cortisol, the body’s stress hormone, into overdrive.
    For women, chronically high cortisol can disrupt sleep, worsen PMS symptoms, and even contribute to weight gain. But don’t despair! Here are 5 science-backed strategies to keep your cortisol levels in check and your well-being soaring:
    Power Down for Power Up

    Sleep is the ultimate stress soother. Aim for 7-8 hours of quality sleep each night. Create a relaxing bedtime routine, including winding down electronics at least an hour before bed.
    Why it Works: According to a study published in the National Institutes of Health (NIH) journal Psychoneuroendocrinology, just one night of short sleep can significantly elevate cortisol levels.
    Breathe Deeply, De-Stress Completely

    Deep breathing activates the relaxation response, a natural antidote to cortisol’s fight-or-flight effects. Practice belly breathing for just 5 minutes daily. Inhale slowly through your nose, feeling your belly expand. Exhale slowly through pursed lips.
    Science Says So: A review published in the journal Frontiers in Psychology highlights the effectiveness of deep breathing in reducing cortisol levels and promoting relaxation.
    Nourish Your Body, Tame Your Stress

    A balanced diet rich in fruits, vegetables, and whole grains provides sustained energy and minimizes blood sugar fluctuations that can trigger cortisol spikes. Limit processed foods, sugary drinks, and excessive caffeine, which can worsen anxiety and stress.
    Move It or Lose It (the Stress, That Is!)

    Exercise is a potent stress reliever. Aim for at least 30 minutes of moderate-intensity exercise most days of the week. Physical activity helps burn off stress hormones and promotes the production of feel-good endorphins.
    The Science of Sweat: A meta-analysis published in the journal Sports Medicine concluded that regular exercise is an effective strategy for reducing cortisol levels and improving stress management.
    Connect and Be Kind

    Social connection is a powerful buffer against stress. Nurture relationships with loved ones, engage in activities you enjoy, and consider volunteering. Acts of kindness boost both your mood and the well-being of others, creating a positive feedback loop.
    By incorporating these tips into your daily routine, you can effectively manage your cortisol levels and cultivate a calmer, healthier you. Remember, consistency is key. Be patient, celebrate your progress, and enjoy the journey to a more balanced and stress-free life!
