Dubai isn’t all about huge malls and luxurious restaurants. If the city gets overwhelming for you, here are some places to calm you down and nourish your soul. I mean it.

Food

Snickers pie at Lifen’ One

Snickers pie at Lifen’ One

  • Life’n one - my absolute favorite place in Dubai. Relax in their big garden and enjoy their creative, healthy, and delicious food. Oh, and please share their snicker’s pie with a loved one.

  • Little Erth by Nabz&G - delicious vegan food + great service

  • Comptoir - organic healthy cafe + ethical fashion shop. Food is amazing. Can be crowded.

  • Social kitchen in Dubai mall (didn’t try it)

  • Bare burger - at city walk (didn’t try it)

  • Dirt burger - delivery (didn’t try it)

  • Wild & the Moon - a lot of raw vegan options. The food is hit or miss but I do love their seating area. It’s a perfect place to work or enjoy a good book.

  • Freedom pizza - vegan options - good junky pizza

  • Ripe Market - organic grocer and a market on the weekends.

  • Organic food and cafe - grocery store

  • Society restaurant -vegan options (didn’t try it)

  • Mayocum - Australian Restaurant + vegan options (didn’t try it)

  • SnKitchen -raw vegan - at Galeries Lafayette (didn’t try it)

  • Veganity (didn’t try it)

  • Iscream take a look at the most interesting ice cream flavors. They’ve got some vegan options too ;)

Activities

Walking around La Mer

Walking around La Mer

  • La Mer - enjoy a day at the beach and then walk around the beautiful area. Shops, restaurants, and certain activities might be happening.

  • Alserkal - Art galleries, events, coffee, & food. Keep in mind the galleries are closed on Fridays.

  • Kite Beach - a perfect place to go for a serious walk, games for kids, and a beautiful beach.

  • If you’re looking for Iyengar yoga classes check this link http://www.iyengaryogadubai.com/practice/

  • lastly, try to make it to Abu Dhabi, you can take a bus and it won’t cost too much. I like Abu Dhabi more as it’s calmer and while you’re there check the Louvre there, it’s supposed to be great.
