For those of you who are as obsessed with the show as we are, GRAZIA brings you just a few of the spots you may know about from the hit reality show.<\/p>\n<h3 id=\"h-gitano-dubai\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">GITANO Dubai<\/h3>\n        <blockquote class=\"instagram-media \" style=\"background: #ffffff;border: 0;margin: 1px;width: 100%;padding: 0;\"  data-instgrm-permalink=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/p\/DO56SI3DQ07\/?igsh=MXd1djBpb2czd3p4Zw==\" data-instgrm-version=\"14\"><\/blockquote>\n<p>Fans of the hit series can instantly recall this iconic setting \u2014 the sun-drenched poolside of GITANO Dubai. Nestled in J1 Beach Jumeirah, the restaurant&#8217;s private cabanas and laid-back chic atmosphere made it the perfect backdrop for what started as an intimate catch-up and quickly spiralled into an all-out confrontation. Pamala Serena had invited a select group of women to air her ongoing tension with Lailli and Alizey Mirza \u2014 but it was the arrival of actress Tejaswi Prakash, who came to the pair&#8217;s defence, that sent the afternoon into freefall.<\/p>\n<h3 id=\"h-top-chef-dubai\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">Top Chef Dubai<\/h3>\n        <blockquote class=\"instagram-media \" style=\"background: #ffffff;border: 0;margin: 1px;width: 100%;padding: 0;\"  data-instgrm-permalink=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/p\/DLsEDveKNbP\/?utm_source=ig_web_copy_link&amp;igsh=MzRlODBiNWFlZA==\" data-instgrm-version=\"14\"><\/blockquote>\n<p>Leave it to Tejasswi to turn a culinary outing into a debate space. She invited Laili, Alizey and Iryna to Top Chef Dubai \u2013 an exclusive cooking studio tucked away in Jumeirah \u2013 for an intimate tasting session tied to her potentially new restaurant venture. The elevated yet private setting, known for its hands-on culinary experiences and personal chef services, set the stage for what should have been a relaxed afternoon of sampling and sharing. Instead, as the dishes made their way around the table, so did the tension \u2014 the women found themselves rehashing the dramatic events of the night before.<\/p>\n<h3 id=\"h-sohum-wellness-sanctuary\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">Sohum Wellness Sanctuary<\/h3>\n        <blockquote class=\"instagram-media \" style=\"background: #ffffff;border: 0;margin: 1px;width: 100%;padding: 0;\"  data-instgrm-permalink=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/p\/DSCzsTmEn17\/?utm_source=ig_web_copy_link&amp;igsh=MzRlODBiNWFlZA==\" data-instgrm-version=\"14\"><\/blockquote>\n<p>Seeking a reset from the chaos of the season, twin sisters Lailli and Alizey chose Sohum Sanctuary as their backdrop for a drama-free day. Known for its holistic approach to the mind, body and soul, the luxury spa offered exactly the kind of calm the group so desperately needed. However, Pamala&#8217;s arrival was met with icy greetings, shattering any hope of a peaceful afternoon, and before long the sanctuary&#8217;s tranquil energy was no match for the tension in the room, which then came to involve married couple Dyuti and Iryna.<\/p>\n<h3 id=\"h-ruby-ru-by-iris\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">Ruby Ru by Iris<\/h3>\n        <blockquote class=\"instagram-media \" style=\"background: #ffffff;border: 0;margin: 1px;width: 100%;padding: 0;\"  data-instgrm-permalink=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/p\/DYjyMHojJzK\/?utm_source=ig_web_copy_link&amp;igsh=MzRlODBiNWFlZA==\" data-instgrm-version=\"14\"><\/blockquote>\n<p>Ruby Ru is a Dubai restaurant known for its Parisian flair \u2013 and it also happened to be the backdrop for perhaps one of the most revealing moments in the show&#8217;s first season. Pamala invited Tabinda Sanpal out for dinner, where she<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> shockingly revealed there were rumours spreading about her husband, billionaire Satish Sanpal, getting cosy with another woman at a social outing.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3 id=\"h-banya-forrest\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">Banya Forrest<\/h3>\n        <blockquote class=\"instagram-media \" style=\"background: #ffffff;border: 0;margin: 1px;width: 100%;padding: 0;\"  data-instgrm-permalink=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/reel\/DVq2wieFlY5\/?utm_source=ig_web_copy_link&amp;igsh=MzRlODBiNWFlZA==\" data-instgrm-version=\"14\"><\/blockquote>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">After constant relationship drama, Dyuti, Karan and Satish met for a spa day to debrief their dilemmas at Banya Forrest Spa.
