But I had so much fun discovering cute little stores and also a big one in Dubai Mall. And I'm not a shopper at all.

Had a coffee with salted caramel flavor at Laduree Dubai Mall. A very tiny Parisian Tea Salon, so cute! Next time I will buy something from there mouthwatering selection of maracoons. The coffee I had was absolutely divine and I was glad I tried a new flavor.

On my way I was passing a shop called "The Paper Room", went in to have a look and they have very nice Cards for any occasion but just a bit more original. Beautiful writing accessories, special books and you can create your own occasions cards here. I bought a gift for a new born from the three bears, I wish I can keep it for myself.

My last destination was Lafayette Gourmet. Highly impressed with the beautiful display of the food, lovely to stroll around and I got a upscale market feel here. Took home sushi (divine) different types of cheese, which I haven't been able to buy in Dubai. Pork which was actually cheaper compare to Spinneys, Van Houten Choclate etc.

Empty wallet but a great day!
