Invites families to celebrate spectacular Iftar and Sohour in custom-built tent
Emirates Palace is giving families a chance to celebrate this Ramadan in a spectacular way with the biggest and most elaborate Ramadan Tent set up in the UAE. Entrance to the magnificent set-up is only AED55, which entitles guests to a drink and a chance to win a complimentary stay at the Palace Suites.
Located at its sprawling terrace, the purpose-built Ramadan Tent has a seating capacity of 550 people, and incorporates a beautiful traditional design that enhances the mood and spirit of festivities associated with Iftar celebrations. "Once inside the biggest Ramadan Tent in the UAE, our guests will be mesmerized with the Iftar buffet we prepared especially for the occasion. There will be shishas and Arabic entertainment as well for families to have a truly grand time in this very important occasion," explained Noel Massoud, General Manager, Emirates Palace.
From 24-30 September, the Palace's popular restaurant, Le Vendome Brasserie, will host the Iftar buffet. From October onwards until the end of Ramadan, the buffet will move to the tent built especially for the occasion.
"The AED125 Iftar feast consists of a sumptuous buffet, coffee and tea, and a variety of Ramadan juices. The Palace promises a wide range of gourmet dishes for its buffet offer, including a delectable mix of traditional Arabic cuisine, suitable to break the feast," added Massoud.
As a bonus treat, Abu Dhabi's landmark luxury resort hotel is throwing in a special promotion that will give its guests and their families a chance to win a complimentary stay at one of its top suites. The lavish 680 sqm Palace Suite boasts a spacious living area, an elegant private dining room and three regal bedrooms. "It's a private palace within the Palace," added Massoud.
Massoud also announced the hotel's special timings for Ramadan: "During the Holy Month, all restaurants will be closed for lunch except for Le Vendome. Mezzaluna, Sayad and Anar will start welcoming and serving guests at 6.30 pm, while Havana Club and Al Majilis Caf open at 7 pm. Diwan L'Auberge will host a special Ramadan buffet for Dhs 135 per person"
