An amalgamation of rustic and contemporary, Terra is designed to enhance casual meets and get-togethers. Opening by the end of the month, Terra has sustainability at heart, while the vibe is all about the people.
This month will also see the highly anticipated opening of SLAW and More, the UAE’s first premium burger boutique. The new concept is being launched by Founder and Chef, Ali Yazdi, who owns the multi-award-winning SLAW burger brand in Dubai.
Al Safadi, one of the region’s most popular Lebanese restaurants that have grown with the city of Dubai, is extending its stunning fine-dining experience to the capital. For more than two decades, the restaurant has been a favourite destination for families and friends, as well as become quite an attraction among visitors for its grandiose décor and masterful Lebanese cuisine. Al Safadi is located in the Al Markaz district of Al Qana and will be open for breakfast, lunch and dinner in the upcoming months.
Continuing the excitement at the Al Qana is the widely popular Grand Beirut, which offers authentic Lebanese specialities. The ambience is inspired by the art and culture of Lebanon, sure to transport one to the hustle and bustle of Beirut. The Grand Beirut is decorated in an attractive mix of oriental design and modern elements that create a colourful and relaxed environment.
Thai Gate, a premium and authentic Thai restaurant serving Ajman, Sharjah, Ras Al Khaimah and Khorfakkan since 2019, will also be coming to Al Qana. Thai Gate is a place where the love of seafood shines through the flavours of Asia.
