If you are looking for a cozy place where you can taste Italian pasta, you must visit Paul café (anywhere) - but our choice is at DCC Branch I’m in-love with their tiramisu and lattes, btw. Paul, baka naman.

I am a fan of Paul bakery. French style bakeries this one is in Terminal 3, concourse C ( lower level). I had difficulty finding this one and I think there was duplicate signage in the map. They usually have berry tart but this branch didn’t have it. Selections were limited. I got a pistachio crescent. This was tasty a bit dense and not that crispy. If you like French pastry Paul is the place to go. Water, latte and crescent about 20$. Somewhat pricey but everything in Dubai airport is expensive so this one is not an exception.
