Dining at the legendary Peninsula hotel in Hong Kong does not disappoint. The top floor Felix bar offers superb views of the iconic Hong Kong skyline, and with an interior designed by Phillipe Starck there is as much to see inside as out.
Al Mahara - Burj Al Arab restaurant Dubai
The dining experience at the Burj Al Arab’s signature restaurant 'Al Mahara' is unique. This underwater themed restaurant begins with a mock submarine ride from the reception to the dining area. The tables are situated around a giant glass aquarium full of fish that adds to the restaurants submerged theme.
Just to give you an idea of the prices. The 5 course set meal here will set you back about US$200 per person and that excludes any wine (US$100+ per bottle).
Also adding, though not as enjoyable, is the cold air temperature. As the name (which translates to oyster) suggests, the dishes here are mainly seafood, though there is fusion with other meats and Asian flavours. The surroundings make you feel as if your food was plucked freshly out of the ocean. With a dinning experience as exciting as this, it is no wonder that this place was named one of the 50 best restaurants in the world.Restaurant 6.8, Palopo, Lake Atitlan, Guatemala
