About the Author
COLLETTE LYONS'S WRITING CAREER has so far proved
a rather wonderful excuse to disappear around the world for years
at a time. The London-born, Cambridge-educated writer has been
putting pen to paper for magazines and newspapers including The
Guardian, The Independent and The Sunday
Times in the United Kingdom, as well as Arabian titles such as
The National, Time Out Dubai and OK! Middle East
for almost 15 years. Most recently, three years in Dubai dining,
drinking and dropping far too much money in the city's malls have
left her well qualified to provide an exhaustive guide to the
city's best.
