of selected hops all for less than Dhs100.

Street (02 652 4333).

This cool steakhouse has come up with a

super deal for Showdown Week. For Dhs100

you’ll get the Oak Room burger (topped with

mustard mayonnaise, pickles, battered onion

rings and smoked cheddar) and a bottle of

the hotel chain’s own-brand hops. Brilliant.

on Saadiyat Island. During Showdown Week

you can get a grilled beef burger with turkey

sliced pickled beetroot plus a pint of hops for

The Foundry

McGettigan’s

O Dhs60. The Ritz-Carlton Abu Dhabi, Grand Canal,

Khor Al Maqta (02 818 8888).

Sports Café

This sports bar always does a good burger and

it’s no different during Showdown Week. Here

you’ll get the bar’s signature burger with a pint

for Dhs89. Can’t say fairer than that.

O Dhs89. Fairmont Bab Al Bahr, Khor Al Maqta

(02 654 3333).

Stock Burger Co.

These out-there creations are the total

opposite of a bog-standard cheese burger.

Choose from a satay burger topped with

pickled cabbage and satay sauce, all-day

breakfast burger with bacon, eggs, tomato

and hash browns, or, if you like bit of a spice,

there’s always the nacho burger, served with

guacamole, spicy tomato salsa, sour cream,

pickled jalapeño and crispy nachos. The deal

also includes some hops to go with it.

O Dhs80. Holiday Inn Abu Dhabi, Dhafeer Street

(02 657 4864).

The Foundry

This classy restaurant at the Southern Sun

Abu Dhabi has just become the À rst

Dhs110. We reckon that’s worth heading out

to the island for.

O Dhs110. The St. Regis Saadiyat Island Resort, Abu

Dhabi (02 498 8888).

PJ O’Reilly’s

The current Time Out Abu Dhabi Pub of the

Year is offering a choice of two burgers,

neither of which are for the faint-hearted.

The TNT burger packs an explosive punch, as

you might imagine, with hot sauce drizzled

over a spicy buffalo chicken burger. If that’s

too tame for you, try tackling the JawBreaker,

which has a stack of three patties alongside

the usual salad, onions, cheese and other

accompaniments. Time to open wide.

O Dhs59 or Dhs109. Le Royal Méridien Abu Dhabi,

Sheikh Khalifa Street (056 404 4781).

Sorso

The stylish sports bar at The Ritz-Carlton

Abu Dhabi, Grand Canal has put on a

special deal. The grilled beef burger

loaded with smoky barbecued beef, melted

cheddar cheese and grilled bacon is all

sandwiched together in a brioche bun and

is accompanied by a generous portion of

parmesan fries and a pint of hops.
