For the gram
Burjuman is all set to be transformed into a food lover's dream. Starting Feb 15, giant food installations will be found throughout the mall including spinning doughnuts, moving noodles and colourful sushi rolls. Restaurants within the malls - like Asia Kitchen by Mainland China and Noodle House - will be offering giveaways, and shoppers who spend Dh100 or more between February 21 and March 9 stand to win a brand new 2019 Nissan Patrol. Don't forget to take pics of the giant installations and upload them with the hashtag #BurJumanFoodArt on Instagram - as Cold Stone Creamery and VOX Cinema vouchers are up for grabs.
The great biryani festival
Who can resist the iconic rice dish? The perfect blend of spices, flavours and meat, biryanis have a way of bringing people together. Which is why Indus Restaurant has created a special biryani menu. From Nargisi biryani to Samundari biryani, non-vegetarians can expect a real treat. Vegetarians don't need to feel left out - soya chaap ki biryani, hare masala ke biryani and more will ensure they're satisfied too. The menu runs until March 1. For reservations, call 04-8868713.
Learning can be fun
