EDITOR’S NOTE Welcome to March.

The weather is as close to perfect as you can get, setting us up nicely for what is looking like being a great month.

We have lost count of how many times we have heard that there's so much to do here, but it’s true. This month we took a look around one of Dubai’s newest destinations, La Mer in Jumeirah. See what we found on pages 26-29.

A lot of you are families with children and we have some great pointers to help occupy the little ones, whether you are looking for family friendly brunches, want tips on how to arrange a stress free children's birthday party or simply looking for after school activities – we have included as much as we can.

Health and wellness are always important and we cover the growing issue of obesity, how to manage it and reduce the risk.

If weight loss is just a stubborn issue that won’t budge, we also look at fat transfer as a procedure and how it is carried out.

Planning on going out? Where do we start? There is heaps to do, including the return of firm favorites in the March calendar, Taste Of Dubai and the $10 million Dubai World Cup. Finally, we can’t believe our luck here at Connector, not only did we get a chance to review Galvin Dubai from award winning chefs the Galvin brothers (page 39), but also our chef’s recipe comes from another award winner and Dubai debutant David Myers! Check out his lobster roll recipe on pages 40-41.

Hope you enjoy the issue and enjoy the month!

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR

Send your letters to editorial@connector-dubai.com. we'd love to hear from you!

Great competitions this month.

I entered them all and hope my chances are better to win at least one of them. I have been to Taste of Dubai the last few years and love it there and winning free tickets for this year would be amazing. Andrea

Unfortunately it was down to me to arrange a night out on Valentine’s Day this year as my husband had totally forgotten. As we have kids we don’t go out much so I don’t know many places, but your brief round up of ideas helped and I chose one from your list. I still made sure he paid though. Nicole

Your article on choosing a nursery was perfectly timed. I have a new born baby, just 6 months old now, and I am starting back at work in April, so am trying to find a nursery that suits all my needs and didn’t really know what to look out for. It will definitely help me to decide now that I am looking around. Nikita

I guess like everyone I have a busy lifestyle and as a result have a few bad habits which include not doing the exercise I need to and used to enjoy doing. Reading your piece on easy to do healthy habits has shown me there really is no excuse and has given me a bit more motivation to do that little bit more each day. Leyla 10 MARCH CONNECTOR

EDITOR’S PICKS You can never have too many black dresses, especially when one is as detailed and defined as this BCBGMAXAZRIA gown.

The folds and ruffles create a flattering, flowy silhouette perfect for summer time.

You can never go wrong with minimalism especially when it comes in the form of a sleek and lustrous watch like this emerald True Thinline Soldier watch by Rado.

Black and sparkle are go-to picks when it comes to a signature bag. This crossbody Kensington bag by Kurt Geiger ties together any look with its unique texture and defining shimmer.

For the savvy business woman on the go, the Savage leather flat mules by Gabriela Hearst are the ultimate choice of shoe. Pointed and embellished with a buckle, they’re stylish and functional!

Detail your nails with this non-toxic, vegan and cruelty free nail polish from FC Beauty.

The innovative formula is free of anything harmful, so your nails stay healthy while flattering!

Hoops are back, and we couldn’t be more thrilled! Every girl needs a signature hoop so make it these vibrant life hoops from Kate Spade. The pearl detailing and tortoise yellow print can be paired with day or night outfit.

#connectordubai

EDITOR’S PICKS Talking about being bold? The Piper boots by All Saints are as bold as it gets. Not only are they giving us biker chick vibes, but the fringe adds a flirty element that can be styled for some fun looks.

Retro vibes are back to add a unique edge to a contemporary theme in any room. Try this with the Calligaris Lampada Pom Pom Floor Lamp from Western Furniture.

Make an appearance inspired by the glamour of the Dubai World Cup in this charming pale blue Reesie dress by BCBGMAXAZRIA. Pair it with some gold hoops and a chic hat and you’ll be ready for a day at the races.

Add some luxury Italian style to your wrist. This ultrathin watch by D1 Milano captures a refined and clean look that can be amplified by adding bracelets and chains.

Sporty sneaker heads seeking a luxury piece need to get their hands on these low top sneakers by Prada. The contrast panel adds detail and style to make a bold statement.

Be different in these Arches earrings from Pandora and add a pop of colour fit for daily wear or as an accent piece for a night out.

THE REVIEW

Galvin Dubai at City Walk

I t is exactly two years since the second phase of City Walk opened and offered a totally new and unique dining, shopping and leisure destination that has very quickly become a popular and lively place to visit any day of the week.

Within the hustle and bustle of City Walk is The Square, home to three fine dining restaurants. One of these is Galvin Dubai, the second venture in Dubai of award winning British chef brothers Chris and Jeff Galvin.

Galvin Dubai is spread over two levels with the elegant restaurant on the ground floor and a relaxed lounge bar upstairs. There is also a well-spaced outdoor terrace for those looking to enjoy al fresco dining.

The menu has a distinctive Mediterranean flavour to it, with a leaning towards French cuisine, and, under the direction of Executive Chef Luigi Vespero, who spent 5 years working with Galvin in London, a regional twist has been added to some dishes.

Our starters consisted of an escabèche of yellow fin tuna, beautifully accompanied by a herb salad and a perfectly spiced aubergine puree, and a signature dish of a lasagne of Devon crab, three layers of pasta stuffed www.connector.ae

with crab meat and served with a creamy bisque. The portions were both just perfect for a starter. The yellow fin tuna was a very refreshing option to start the meal and the lasagne was so full of crab meat you got a great taste in every mouthful.

For the mains we opted for the nicely cooked beef tenderloin accompanied with carmelised shallots, and a dish with a Middle Eastern twist, the tagine of lamb.

Both were well presented and looked as delicious as they tasted. The lamb tagine was accompanied with a beautiful couscous and the subtle sweet taste of dates wrapped in crispy filo pastry.

RECIPE

Cooking with…

Chef David Myers Global Restaurateur. Michelin-starred Gypsy Chef

T ravel has always been at the heart of the unique culinary experiences crafted by global restaurateur and celebrity chef David Myers. After training in the kitchens of some of the most internationallyrenowned chefs, opening several of his own restaurants across the world and receiving numerous accolades, David now brings three exclusive dining and drinking experiences to the Renaissance Downtown Hotel, Dubai.

His signature collection in Dubai reflects three well-defined concepts that are each close to his heart. Bleu Blanc is the quaint Southern French farmhouse-inspired restaurant.

BASTA! transports diners to an urban interpretation of a Roman trattoria, Florentine steakhouse and Neapolitan pizzeria, and Poppy is the intimate bar that fuses great cocktails with analog tunes.

David’s culinary journey led him from Ohio to work with some of the world’s best chefs in Chicago, France, New York, and Los Angeles before opening his first restaurant Sona which went on to earn a Michelin star for three consecutive years. Since then David has opened a number of restaurants in the US, Japan, Singapore, and Hong Kong and won many accolades including the recent Esquire Man at His Best ‘Chef of the Year.’

David has also gained a following through TV appearances on shows 40 MARCH CONNECTOR

Tips for organising a stress-free

children's birthday party

O ne of the great joys of parenting is the chance to show how much you love them and there’s no better way than on their birthday.

It’s their special day of the year (besides every other holiday that includes presents) so of course you’re going to give them the best you possibly can, because that’s just what kind of parent you are! But towering over a half done cake as you attempt to artistically frost the face of some cartoon character, while decorations start peeling off the walls, and the kids start running into the kitchen screaming about something you can’t comprehend, there has to be an easier way! So here are a few tips to show how much you love your kid on their birthday, without all the blood boiling tension.

Prepare to plan This should be done weeks in advance.

Start by sitting down, pen and paper handy 48 MARCH CONNECTOR

and making a checklist of all that you’d like to include and have completed for the special day. It’ll help you to get an idea of what needs to be done and how to organise it all in the most efficient manner possible.

Let’s talk budget No doubt that it’s easy to go a little overboard with your child’s special day, or depending on your financial circumstance, budget is your number one concern. You want to have a fun filled day without breaking the bank. So the first step for a successful, and stress free, party is always figure out the numbers and stick with it.

If you’re unsure, explore what’s out there by calling up some party venues and assessing their charges and what comes included, then decide from there. #connectordubai

KIDS & EDUCATION Location, location, location There are a couple of choices when it comes to where exactly your child’s birthday party will be held. Park, home, or a party venue? These choices vary based on economies of scale. The actual cost per child will definitely be lower if you have it at home or in a park, but the ease and efficiency of party venues is tough to beat. Party venues will provide the games, entertainment, catering and you typically just need to bring the cake.

Choosing the theme A theme of the party can be anything.

From a beloved superhero, character, colour or movie. This may make choosing a venue and settling on the nitty gritty details like invites, décor, goodie bags and more a whole ton faster and easier.

Fun and games The hardest part is always figuring out how to keep the kids having the most fun. The easiest options are party venues as they will provide the games and entertainment, or will have the entire party surrounding an activity. But having

www.connector.ae

a party at home or in a park can be easier if you can hire a children’s entertainer, a magician, clown or face painter, you’ll be able to get things done while the kids stay busy.

Delivering on munchies Whether you decide to make the cake or have a store bought one, getting a cake ready is fifty percent of the work. Kids are typically running around and having way too much fun at parties to really want to eat a full meal, so light and easily replenishable snacks are a good way to go. Keep it simple!

Goodie Bags galore To finish off the celebration, goodie bags are always the way to go. But it can get difficult depending on the size of the group. Some party venues can provide goodie bags while some easy and simple go-to ideas can be assorted chocolate, t-shirts or just a small party favour that falls within the theme.

All about obesity

P izzas, pastas, burgers, butter chicken, - it seems that the list of indulgences are never ending, nor is their availability. Along with the efficiency of home and office delivery, the seemingly never-ending hours spent perched behind a computer screen, and the results are bound to show, and where else but on our bodies? The signs are telling, we have less energy, clothes seem to fit a little snugger as the days pass, sleep doesn’t relieve the fatigue, and the problem only continues to grow.

The rising rates of obesity has become a hot topic across the globe, but with having noticed the problem, there are more efforts and qualified professionals responding to it as well.

‘Obese’ is a term that describes someone who is very overweight with an immense excess of body fat that may impact other parts of an individual’s health. “The impact of obesity is huge over the community,” 56 MARCH CONNECTOR

says Dr. Hussam Al Trabulsi, General & Bariatric surgeon from Medcare Hospital “in fact it is a leading cause of world mortality, morbidity, disability, healthcare utilisation and healthcare costs. Obesity can be caused by different reasons such as: family history and genes, lifestyle habits, eating behaviours and stress can contribute to obesity.”

When it comes to obesity in children, it is advised to conduct hormonal tests as well as genetic tests to rule out any chromosomal abnormalities. Other times, adult obesity is stemmed from poor habits formed during childhood, transforming an obese child into an obese adult.

The risks and impacts of obesity is most prominent in causing major health problems, especially type 2 Diabetes, where 85% of obese people are likely to be diagnosed. Diabetes which is when #connectordubai

HEALTH & WELLBEING sugar and glucose levels rise in the blood, can cause blindness, oversensitive and painful nerves, as well as a rise in heart problems. Obese individuals are also at a higher risk for cancer, skin diseases, and osteoporosis.

The prime reason for stored body fat is when the intake of calories supersedes the calories used and burned through physical activity. Children are recommended 60 minutes a day of excercise, while adults should aim for 150-300 minutes across the week.

Body Mass Index (BMI) When it comes to assessing whether If you fall under the obesity spectrum you are overweight on the BMI scale, or obese the most addressing the WHAT IS YOUR BMI? commonly used concern with your method is the Body General Practitioner Mass Index.

Weight loss surgery According to Dr. Muffi, bariatric and weight loss surgeries are recommended for individuals with grade 3 obesity and those that fall in the grade 2 and suffer from one or more other illness such as sleep apnea, type-2 diabetes, mellitus and hypertension.

There are a range of common surgeries that doctors offer to patients.

Dr. Shakeel Ahmed is an Internal Medical specialist at BEFORE ICARE clinic, Laparoscopic Gastric Bypass Mankhool branch, he says the most common surgery is the laparoscopic gastric bypass in which the surgery causes patients to feel full after eating a small amount of food.

Sleeve gastrectomy is another common procedure, again restricting portions that the patient can eat, thus enabling them to lose weight. There is also the option of a gastric band, in which a band is placed around the stomach.

Pre and Post surgery facts “All these operations can lead to significant weight loss within a few years, but each has advantages and disadvantages” says Dr. Mazin Rasool Aljabiri, Consultant 58 MARCH CONNECTOR

Physician & Gastroenterologist from Mediclinic City Hospital.

Advantages of surgery “In general, gastric bypass patients will lose around 70 percent of their excess weight, sleeve gastrectomy patients will lose around 60 percent and gastric banding patients will lose around 50 percent” said Dr Shakeel Ahmed, Internal Medical specialist from ICARE Clinic, Mankhool branch.

“The health risks of bariatric surgery are much lower than the health risks of obesity itself.

The patient will be back at a desk job within two weeks and four weeks for physical work after bariatric AFTER surgery. Most Laparoscopic Gastric Bypass people lose half their extra weight during the six months they prepare for surgery and the rest over six to 12 months after surgery.” said Dr. Hussam Al Tarabulsi, General & Bariatric Surgery from Medcare hospital.

Disadvantages of surgery “Being left with excess folds of skin, you may need further surgery to remove these, not getting enough vitamins and minerals from your diet, you'll probably need to take supplements for the rest of your life after surgery.” said Dr. Mazin Rasool Aljabiri, Consultant Physician & Gastroenterologist from Mediclinic City Hospital. #connectordubai

Fat transfer:

natural implants

T he beauty industry has remained obsessed with the concept of implantation surgery for years. All that seems to be an era done and dusted with new affection for ‘fat transfer’ springing up amongst beauty enthusiasts. Fat transfer procedure is for those who seek to contour their bodies using their own body fat. You have asked these questions for years, why can we not move the fat from here to here? From undesirable place to more desirable place. Fat transfer is here for you. This surgery will remove your fat cells via gentle liposuction from undesirable body part and inject those into desirable one. Some bill it as ‘natural’ plastic surgery because you are injecting your body with something produced by your own body and it is gaining rapid popularity.

"The face, breast, calves, and buttocks are most common. The one or two tiny incisions made to introduce the cannula to harvest the fat require no sutures. Your doctor will www.connector.ae

then isolate the harvested fat cells from the anaesthetic solution and debris, placing the contents into smaller syringes for injection where filler is needed." said Dr. Maria Rubatti, Plastic Surgeon, CosmeSurge Clinics Who should consider?

If a patient is very thin, they will not have sufficient fat cells to be harvested and transferred. This procedure is ideal for women with fat deposits in their hips or tummy area, so that the fat can be reattributed.

The fitness regime before the procedure Depending on your medical history, general health and age, several tests are performed prior to a fat transfer as with any procedure.

While nutritionists and fitness trainers that create specialised programmes for you to maintain your ideal physique are recommended, a strict fitness regime is not a requirement before a fat transfer procedure.

CONNECTOR MARCH 59

HEALTH & WELLBEING The purpose • The fat transfer procedure works best on face areas that appear wrinkled and sunken, including lips.

• The procedure is popularly used for breast, buttock and calf augmentation. Some bill it as natural augmentation than implants.

• You can consider fat transfer to improve body contours, refill bodily depressions and rejuvenate hands and face Dr. Sanjay Parashar, Consultant Plastic Surgeon at Cocoona said, “Fat transfer is ideal for people with volume loss, early signs of aging such as deep nasolabial folds, sunken eyes, temporal hollowing etc. it is also good option to reshape gluteal region from unaesthetic squarish contours to more rounded fuller appearance. It can be selectively used in some patients to augment breasts, calves and arms if they have developmental defect, contour deformities or asymmetries.”

Facial fat transfer: The fat is transferred from your stomach and injected into your face to remove or minimise face creases like crow’s feet, forehead wrinkles and laughter lines. A similar procedure is used to fill in acne scars, face depressions including lips and cheeks. You can also correct or minimise the lines between nose and mouth.

Hand rejuvenation: The fat transfer is effective in improving the skin quality over time. Fat transfer procedure is effectively 60 MARCH CONNECTOR

used in filling up wrinkled areas covering underlying tendons.

Moderate breast augmentation: Fat grafting is the best procedure for you if you are only looking forward to a modest increase in your breast size. Your breasts should be in good shape and skin tone already. But drop fat grafting off the list, if your aim is to get a significant increase in breast size. In this case, breast enlargement with the help of fat transfer will not work for you.

Contorting breasts after implants: If your breasts need a moderate contour and a better shape after you go through implant procedure, fat transfer can be helpful. Small residual irregularities after undergoing implant surgery can be filled with fat grafting.

Buttock augmentation: If you desire a more fuller and rounded buttock, fat transfer can be helpful. Fat transfer can help you in getting a more curvaceous buttock without any help from the implants.

The procedure can yield many positive results, nevertheless there are pro and cons to mull over before making the final call Pros • Fat transfer from your own body as opposed to artificial implants reduce the chance of allergic reactions • The results are natural, stay for a long time and are safe. #connectordubai

HEALTH & WELLBEING • Fat transfer does not require prosthesis to rejuvenate face and hands Cons • For augmentation, you may require multiple sessions to achieve your desired breast or buttock size • Even after the swelling and bruising post-surgery goes away, it takes several weeks to a few months to see final results “It does not require any form of implant or prosthesis and this means that the procedure looks more natural and is less expensive.

Both to the eye and to the touch, a fat transfer appears completely natural.

Unlike an implant, where a pocket must be created, a fat transfer goes directly into the areas that require filler.

The fat must come from your own body or it is likely to be rejected and can lead to health issues. This means that when a patient receives liposuction, they must decide if they want a fat transfer at that time because it cannot be saved for later.

What can happen in some instances is the reabsorption of the fat cells back into the body and out of the specific areas where filler is needed. We use tridimensional liposuction to collect varied types of adipocyte cells and this greatly reduces the changes of reabsorption”, said Dr. Maria Rubatti of CosmeSurge Clinics www.connector.ae

Dr. Sanjay Parashar at Cocoona said, “The disadvantages are quality and quantity of fat varies a lot from person to person so may have varied response, the fat survival depends upon several factors such as technique, quality of body tissue and health of the person. Smoking can be detrimental to fat survival, there is minimal risk of infection and lumpiness with this procedure.”

Safety levels Dr. Maria Rubatti of CosmeSurge Clinics said, “Fat transfers have the same risks as any other surgery like an infection.

Hence, surgeons take many preventative measures, prescribing antibiotics during and after the surgery."

Dr. Sanjay Parashar from Cocoona added, “It is very safe due to its autogenous nature so there is no risk of rejection by the body and once it is accepted by the body it remains as normal fatty tissue.”

Success story at CosmeSurge There have been countless success stories at CosmeSurge Clinics. While there are general similarities, every case is unique. Luz from Argentina is a 32-year-old mother of two. Following her pregnancies, she gained 25 kg and had low self-esteem. We provided her with full-body liposuction, part of which was transferred to her buttocks. After this, she said “You’re the only cosmetic surgeon that I will ever go to.” Later on, we performed a breast lift for her and she is extremely happy and confident.

Floatfit @ Club Mina Gym

B ored with your Yoga class or gym training? We have got something fun and interesting for you to try your legs on!

Club Mina Gym in partnership with Aquaphysical has recently introduced a new water fitness class, Floatfit.

Floatfit combines Yoga postures and high intensity interval training exercises such as planks and burpees, and is performed on top of specially designed float Aquabase.

The floats are clipped to ropes in the swimming pool. You can wear either a swimming costume or gym gear to the class. We chose the latter. The first thing you do after you immerse into pool is climb onto the Aquabase. Then comes the first ‘balancing act’ when you try to gingerly stand on the Aquabase.

Words of wisdom, stand in the centre and widen your feet for better balance.

Then you start off with a line-up of exercises which are surely not new to you, squats, planks, sit-ups, mountain climbers and burpees. Just that this time you would be doing these on top of wobbly floats fearing to slip off. The fear www.connector.ae

runs out of the mind the moment you capsize and realise what have you been afraid of? It’s only water.

Each move lasts for 30 seconds in a session of 45 minutes and with every fall you gain more confidence and control on your float. It teaches you to trust yourself and focus.

At end of the class, you not only improve your muscular strength and endurance but it also helps with posture, balance, focus and coordination.

Location: Westin Lap Pool at Club Mina Gym in Mina Seyahi Complex Entry point: Club Mina Gate beside Barasti Bar Access Point Classes: Three classes each week on Sunday, Tuesday and Saturday at 8am Fees: Dhs 75 each session (45 minutes) for non-members and Dhs 55 for hotel guests and Club Mina members Local Fitness Partner: Functional Fitness Supply

For bookings, readers can contact Club Mina Reception at 04-3181420 CONNECTOR MARCH 63

ANIMAL MAGIC

8 Reasons to

Adopt an adult dog The only rescue group hosting. adoption days every Friday.

1 Every dog needs a “forever home” Whether you choose a puppy, an adult dog or either of the two with a special need, all dogs need a forever home. A forever home is a place where the adoptees are knowledgeable and committed to the time and attention the dog they adopt needs. Being a hero is adopting a dog that you know you can commit a lifetime of care to.

2 They are vaccinated! One less thing for you to worry about.

3 Trick for a treat? Most adult dogs know commands and have the potential to be previously socialised. Anything for a treat!

4 They’re super snugglers! And their snuggle excitement doesn’t result in messes!

5 Sleeping schedule It’s to be expected that any new family member will be a little weary of sleeping in their new home initially, 64 MARCH CONNECTOR

but adult dogs have experience sleeping through till morning whereas puppies wake up when their bellies or bladders require their immediate attention.

6 Teething Do you like your shoes with slobber and holes? Enough said.

7 What you see is what you get. For dogs purebred and mixed, you can only estimate just how large they will be. If you don’t like surprises an adult dog is the way to go!

8 Potty training. Not all adult dogs are potty trained when you adopt them but an older dog has a mature bladder. You won’t need to take your new family member out every two hours to avoid accidents.
