When searching the world over for the best restaraunts, Dubai is a culinary treasure chest.  There are fantastic eateries with top-notch world-class chefs who specialize in preparing the best of the best in gourmet cuisine.  In this fast-evolving metropolis with a shoreline, Dubai is a sumptuous delight for foods and tastes of all cultures.  There is something for everyone in this delightful paradise, and exotic spice to make your mouth water.

There is also a stunning local arts scene, and the multi-national community is flocking here for its fascinating and unique window on the world.  Local danseuse Tripti Bhupen came to Dubai from India, and has founded and continues to run the Samarpan school of Fine Arts in Dubai.  She is an artiste who has really traveled the globe with her art form.  She did her post-graduate work in Kalekshetra, Chennai, and has performed all over India, and in Russia, France, Germany, and Spain.

In 2005, she participated in Dubai’s World Dance Day, a UN-sponsored three-day event dedicated to the art of dance.  Tripti Bhupen’s program for the event was called the “Dance of Life.”  There were presentations on many facets of Indian classical dance, including folk forms, and fusions with other world forms including classical Western dance, Palestinian dance, and Salsa.  There were also exhibitions of student works in visual arts and culture.  The aims of her part in the festival are to promote awareness of Indian dance styles in Dubai and abroad.  Tripti Bhupen’s deep dedication to the traditions of Indian dance, and her unique ability to make artistic connections between Indian dance forms and forms from other parts of the globe, make for an irresistible entertainment experience, as well as opening possibilities for cultural understading.  Tripti Bhupan is truly an asset to Dubai, and one of many local artists who are helping to make this scene vital and continually shifting.
