dubai summer 2009 city guide

With a shimmering ‘forest and ice’ - inspired interior by renowned Japanese interior architects, Super Potato, Anise offers a unique setting for a city brunch. Free-flowing Joseph Perrier Champagne and selected house beverages accompany the endless supply of exquisite world cuisine. Visit one of the eight live cooking stations for food perfectly cooked to your tastes, including spicy curries, tender roasts, sizzling stir-fries and even a foie gras station. Delectable deserts follow a rose-tinted theme, with rose-flavoured candy floss with strawberries, a divine dark chocolate and strawberry chocolate fountain and vanilla strawberry crème brulée. After dining, retire to the adjacent sun terrace, which commands unmatched views over the still waters of the St.Tropez-style harbour.
