Dinner review: Il Borro Tuscan Bistro Dubai
In its first venture outside of Italy, Il Borro is a Tuscan estate owned by the Ferragamo family, steeped with over 1,000 years of culinary heritage (and trust me, on taste of the food here, and you can really tell).

It's now more bistro than a fine dining establishment, and far better for it.
