The team behind Loona include Anton Pinksy, Artem Losev and Vitaly Istomin. The concept prides itself on its high-quality ingredients, which include 24-month-aged parmigiano reggiano, Caputo flour, cold-pressed Lorenzo olive oil and organic eggs. Plus, it’s all about fresh flavours, as the pizza and pasta dough is prepared in-house. 

The pizzas can be made with or without dough or on a cauliflower base. If the original Moscow menu is anything to go by, Dubai is in for a tasty treat. The classic pizzas include Four Cheese, Margherita and Pepperoni. The creative pizzas include A La Tartufo, Eel Stracciatella and Gorgonzola and Pear. Plus, if you’re feeling fancy, the pizzas can be topped with caviar or truffle.

The pastas are made with durum wheat flour and organic eggs in front of the guests. The dishes include Calamarata with Crab, Ravioli with Duck, Tagliolini with Truffle and an Insta-worthy risotto encased in edible gold. The mains range from Liver in a Venetian Style to Octopus in a Sicilian Style. 

There are plenty of fish dishes including Crab Polpetta with Panzanella, Grilled Salmon with Romana Salad and Sea Scallops with Artichoke. Plus, the desserts include Almond Tortellini Dolce De Leche, Limoncello Tart and Poppy Seed Tiramisu.

A sucker for a good story, if you invite Kohinoor to a gallery, comedy night, new restaurant, hiking trip, cycle ride, pool day or just about any activity, she’ll probably say yes – that is if she isn’t busy planning her next adventure.
