A charming and authentic Greek restaurant decked out in blues and whites is the perfect place to while away a winter’s day over a long lunch or dinner with friends this weekend.
Ammos is the new, Rixos Premium located al fresco restaurant, where you’ll feel like you’ve stepped onto an island the moment you walk in. The seafood here is the highlight prepared by award-winning chef Dimitris Lazarou. Who needs a holiday where we have this beautiful spot in town.
4. Help the animals and get a cute calendar for the new year
The New Year is here and if you’re sticking to those resolutions of getting organised, a stylish calendar from the good folk at K9 friends should be your go-to.
The calendars are just AED50 and the proceeds go to K9 friends, a Dubai based rescue and shelter for dogs. Get yours (and one for all or your mates) at the LimeTree Cafe.
3. Make use of the gorgeous weather at a fabulous pool day
If this weather isn’t made for a pool day, we don’t know what is. And luckily we live in Dubai, where there are PLENTY of gorge pools to choose from.
For a spot that ticks all the boxes, make your way to Azure at Rixos Premium, JBR with views for days of the Ain Dubai and Dubai waters, AND its got some amazing January deals to take advantage of.
