Sho-Cho -
Dubai Marine
Bеach Hotel:

gorgeous terrace overlooking the Gulf and Manga movies projected onto

Sophisticated, classy and dead trendy, this is where the beautiful
people go to play, pose and look pretty: you will not see an ounce of
spare body fat in the place. Tuesday and Sunday nights are rammed but
phone ahead for reservations or arrive as a couple as the door policy is
notoriously anti-single males.

Grosvenor House Hotel:
Despite the incongruous setting – a large statue of a monk, who may or may not
