TimeOut Abu Dhabi – July 24, 2019

66 July 24 – August 6 2019 timeoutabudhabi.com

FOR THE ULTIMATE seafood experience, what

could be better than enjoying a five-star

meal surrounded by a giant aquarium

teaming with vibrant marine life?

Book into Ossiano – the super-fancy

seafood restaurant at Atlantis The Palm in

Dubai – and you’ll be able to enjoy wall-to-

ceiling views of exotic creatures while you

sample fine food brought fresh from the sea

to your plate. If you’re okay with watching

fish while eating fish, that is.

However, it’s hard to beat this unique and

sophisticated restaurant for a special night

out, thanks to its buzzing atmosphere and

simply stunning culinary creations (and of

course those fishy views).

As you’d expect it’s on the pricey side, but

descend down that sweeping spiral staircase

and you’ll feel like a classy, human version

of Sebastian from the Little Mermaid (all

together now: “it’s better, down where it’s

wetter – under the sea...”).

BUCKET LIST DAYS OUT

Plus, being such a special spot, don’t be

surprised to witness a marriage proposal.

There’s even a diver whose job it is to hold

up waterproof “will you marry me signs” up

to the glass (no, you’re crying).

There’s a variety of set-priced menus, as

well as a full caviar list if you want to splash

out (ahem). Either way it’s worth dressing up

for what will be a memorable night out.

O Open daily 6.30pm-midnight. Atlantis The Palm,

Palm Jumeirah, Dubai (04 426 2626).
