Ideal for that all important first date, sink back into one of the Arabian-style cushioned booths, neatly nestled next to the pool area and soak up the romantic candlelit surroundings. For starters try the smoked salmon and succulent oysters with helpings of Arabic salads, and for mains peruse the live cooking stations for the endless array of seafood delights (we recommend the seafood paella!) Save room for dessert – take your pick from tasty peanut butter tartlets, homemade praline ice cream or marshmallows and strawberries dipped in the miniature chocolate fountain.
