A little slice of Italy in the heart of Dubai, Bussola is three restaurants in one: a Pizzeria (where classic pizzas, calzones and cheesy ‘white pizzas’ are stone baked to perfection); the Lounge (for delectable aperitivo and seafood pasta); and the Restaurant (serving everything from antipasti and risottos to gloriously authentic gelato).
