Abu Dhabi: With temperatures continuing to climb, Abu Dhabi Culinary, the dining arm of the Department of Culture and Tourism – Abu Dhabi (DCT Abu Dhabi), has unveiled an exciting line up of ice-cream themed initiatives to keep residents cool throughout summer.

Running until 31st August as part of the wider Abu Dhabi Shopping & Dining Season, Abu Dhabi Culinary’s ‘Summer of Ice Cream’ activations include international and local brands conducting limited-time residencies at Yas Mall’s purpose-built Ice Cream Lab.

With a range of ice-creams flavours available, UK-founded DYCE, the modern and electric ice cream house, will be displaying Insta-worthy frozen treats at the Ice Cream Lab between 5 – 18 August, with local brand Parlour Boutique scooping up French flair and panache from 6 – 12 August. Way Up, the specialty café, and Soil Store, the leading organic food store, will take-over from 13 – 26 August and 20 – 31 August, respectively.

Additionally, foodies can beat the heat with a myriad of specially curated frozen menus across 29 participating stores throughout the city. In partnership with The Huntr, the UAE’s Mirzam Chocolate Makers will debut its decadent Iced Eton Mess, while M’OISHI has launched four exclusive ice-cream cups with live tasting sessions where guests guess flavours to win prizes.
