The Tale of Two Soirees II

the Tale of Two Soirees part II


Venue: the Creekside Japanese Restaurant
Sheraton Creek Dubai


style GOURMET
Host: Albert Andrada- Royal Fashion Designer/Fujeirah


The inconspicuous entrance of asian-japonais modern structure in lacquered origami, imparted a sense of arrival. The restaurant name announced outside in red logo, gives a tranquil feeling, a little bit like rising up into gastronomic heaven on a Japanese bygone era.This informal Japanese restaurant combines a light and airy feel, in a casual but modern design. It offers the freshest sushi and sashimi with the Chefs in action at Teppanyaki tables , Sushi Bar and Wok station.
Let the brilliance of the interiors not distract you from the subtleties of the Creekside food haven, understated but deeply luxurious, the overall effect is one of an amazing lightness of being, vibrant cool and relaxing.. This is probably due to the expansive windows opening up, showing a new respect for the modern architectural building’s contours.


Yes, the charm of the Creekside restaurant is in the details, in the subtlety of interiors,of food indulgence translating each raw and fresh element preparation into art.…all the nuances…being designed as a ‘whole experience’.

Everyone has a piece of their heart left here, since most of the intimate dinners in the past were held in this all in one japanese food paradise, and they would not compromise on anything. We have our own favourite seats, a tapped into this positive energy and combined it with the Zen design philosophy – offering memorable experience, to create narrative dreams.
The restaurant is not all about seeing and being seen,it's all about the bountiful supply of raw materials waiting to be transformed into culinary delights, for cooked or otherwise, seafood offers a variety of tempting delicacies.And when spiced up with the diverse flavours of the Orient, it becomes a foodie's dream.


The subtle sashimi (not to be confused with the popular sushi) is a favourite in many kitchens, Japanese, Chinese, Thai and even Korean. It is often draped over a garnish and served with simple sauces. What gives this Oriental food from the depths of the sea its distinctive character is a harmony of tastes. Freshly ground herbs and subtle spices combine seamlessly to make the meals lighter and healthier.

Sashimi is my favourite cuisine. It focuses on the freshness of the ingredients. Its classical minimalism is art on the plate and seduction on the palate. Very Zen like. However, you must ensure that the sashimi is very fresh. And food done on the trepan grill is not only drama which I love but it's also flavoursome and healthy. A truly unbeatable combination.

Friends & HERMES

Luxury and style came together in an evening of sheer indulgence at the recent birthday party hosted by fashion designer and blogger Butz Fuentes. The intimate soiree, held at JUNSHUI- an Asian Fusion, was marked by a mood of soft relaxation. As sparkling wine and scrumptious hors d'oeuvres did the rounds, the select guests were treated to Junshui's savoury and mouth watering buffet,from tempura to sushi,Malaysian curry chicken to Thai's hot sumptuous array of delicious dishes...a culinary feast indeed, pampering riches in gastronomic experience.
Lending glamour to the select gathering was stunning Christina Barrientos, who was the epitome of elegance in her classy black fusion. Conversations and bubbly flowed freely throughout this intimately mellow soiree making it a memorable gathering of Dubai's " beau monde".
