Carine serves up some of the freshest French Mediterranean food in town. With floor-to-ceiling windows, each table has a large bottle of organic olive oil from Chef Izu’s own farm in Greece. Our starters included their burrata (the best in Dubai) with marinated grilled peppers, rocket leaves, and pesto—loaded with creaminess and done perfectly. And the grilled tiger prawns with apple-harissa relish with a jus that was ideal for dipping the fresh bread. From the mains, we tucked into the roasted sea bass fillet with tomato sauce and sumac rice which was a great combination. The lamb cutlet was three beautifully cooked lamb cutlets on pita bread with spiced eggplant. We also loved the aromatic truffle rigatoni which was a rich dish. To end the meal, we indulged in the chocolaty Molten Brownie Marshmallow with Anglaise cream, the passion fruit cheesecake, and the tiramisu; all end-of-a good-meal treats.
