It’s been such a thrill getting back into my professional photography saddle after being thoroughly enthralled with the joys of pregnancy and motherhood for over a year.
Baker & Spice Dubai is an oasis in the desert for those searching for great local, organic, fresh and homemade dishes. Serving a range of Mediterranean, Middle Eastern, British and Latin fusion dishes with carefully sourced ingredients, they are the pioneers of the Farmers Market movement in the UAE. A rustic respite in the midst of ultra glam Dubai modernity, the restaurant is a favourite of every discerning food lover. We have every respect for the work that founder of Foodcraft Solutions Yael Mejia has put in as she overseas every aspect of the operation. They have a really great restaurant concept and the consistency necessary for long-term success. So yes course, we both love Baker & Spice. It serves some of the best food in Dubai.
Here are some shots from a series of profession food photography shoots I was hired for in the UAE recently. Thanks to Yael, Chef Vincente, Maria and the culinary team and Anand and the service team as these photos highlight the beauty of the collaborate effort. The food is every bit as good as it looks. Don’t take my word for it. Feast with your eyes. Have a bite…

I do miss Baker and Spice! I love their cold salads and their freshly baked breads and pastries. So good! And this was where we first met 🙂
Chef and Steward says
Yes you are right Didi! We take every opportunity to meet our friends there for a meal and even for a business meeting.

Wow, the food looks amazing! I have a farmers market close by that serves similar fare but not of that caliber.
Chef and Steward says
Yael is a brilliant and consistent restauranteur and food consultant and has exacting standards. That makes all the difference.
