Disneyland Abu Dhabi: Castle with Emirati flair? Likely opening date, how park will look explained
Walt Disney is set to open the Middle East's first Disneyland on Yas Island, Abu Dhabi. The announcement was made on Wednesday; Disney will work with Abu-Dhabi based Miral Group, which will build and operate the park. The project, branded as 'Disneyland Abu Dhabi', marks the first Disney theme park in the Middle East and Disney's seventh globally, following its parks in California, Florida, Tokyo, Paris, Hong Kong and Shanghai. This will be Disney's 13th park and resort, with the last one opening in Shanghai, China in 2016. Although still in its early stages, here is what we know about the iconic Disney Park that will be built in the UAE. When will Disneyland Abu Dhabi open? Perhaps the most pressing question is when we will see the opening of the iconic Disney theme park. Although no opening date has been confirmed, Bloomberg reported that the chairman of Disney Parks, John D'Amaro, said the designing stage will take around two years, while the actual construction can take around five to six years. Currently, Disney is in the process of designing the resort, and if all falls into plan, we could see a Disneyland in the UAE by 2032 or 2033. Where is it coming up? The new park will be erected alongside the country's biggest attractions at Yas Island Waterfront. With the opening of Disneyland Abu Dhabi, the number of attractions will total five, with the others being Warner Bros World Abu Dhabi, Ferrari World Abu Dhabi, SeaWorld Abu Dhabi and Yas Waterworld. A modern castle? Moreover, D'Amaro mentioned that Disneyland Abu Dhabi will host a 'modern castle unlike anything we've ever created'. Traditionally, Disneyland castles draw upon European-style castles, like the Cinderella Castle, which has influences from the Neuschwanstein Castle in Bavaria. Though D'Amaro did not reveal many details about the Abu Dhabi-based castle, he said that the concept for this resort will push the boundaries of theme park design, showcasing groundbreaking technology and visionary architecture, which include a 'modern castle.' How will it look like? Although the park is still in its designing phase, we do know that the park will be 'distinctly Emirati' while also keeping the Disney flavour intact, the Disney CEO said. Bob Iger, CEO of Walt Disney Company, said on Wednesday that the park will blend 'the beloved Disney stories and characters with the cultures and tastes of this country and region.' In 2016, when Disney opened its Chinese division, the Shanghai Disney Resort blended the host country's rich cultural heritage while still staying true to Disney's originality. For example, right outside the main entrance to the resort, the 'Wishing Star Park' draws inspiration from China's landscape, specifically China's Yangtze River Delta. Disney also chose to omit certain attractions in China due to cultural sensitivities, like the 'Haunted Mansion' which can be seen as inappropriate and taboo. Who will design and operate the park? Miral, which is an Abu Dhabi-based leisure and entertainment group, will be working alongside Disney to design the region's first Disneyland The new resort will be fully developed and built by Miral. Disney will lead creative design, attraction development and operational oversight to provide a world-class guest experience. Upon completion, Miral will also operate this recreational destination, drawing on its extensive experience in developing and managing some of the leading family entertainment destinations on Yas Island and in Abu Dhabi, in collaboration with prominent American and European brands.

Review: The Cullinan, Dubai's sleek new steakhouse
Does Dubai have a really great high-end steakhouse? It's something I think to myself as I pull up at Jumeirah Marsa Al Arab. The hotel – and its near dozen restaurants – are only six weeks into operation when we find ourselves heading to The Cullinan. But word has spread fast, and even though we're here for an early reservation, the dining room fills up quickly. Sure, in part, it can be credited to this being one of the newest tables in town. But I also suspect others also welcome the arrival of a glamourous steakhouse to Dubai's well-populated dining scene. The interiors are deliciously Art Deco. Think smooth white and grey marble, a monochrome tiled terrace, mirrored ceilings, and plenty of gold accents. If there was any doubt beforehand that this restaurant was a steakhouse, it melts away upon arrival, where grand meat display refrigerators, stocked with premium cuts, welcome guests. The dining room is expansive, but cleverly designed so it's still got soul. An open kitchen runs down one side, chefs bustling away at stations, while the other side opens out onto a long alfresco terrace that perfectly frames the Burj Al Arab for instant wow-factor. The Cullinan has a big focus on meat, but there's also seafood options across the starters, a page of salads, and a selection of mains that aren't steak for those not here to sample the premium cuts. The two pages of steaks might be overwhelming, but our friendly server is on hand to make expert recommendations and answer all our questions with a knowledge and passion that impresses. To start, we're told we have to try the steak tartare mille-feuille (Dhs118, pictured above), and we're very glad we do. It arrives as a beautifully plated ring of diced beef tenderloin topped with truffle caviar, cucumber pearls and gold leaf (this is Dubai, after all), with a creamy demi-glace poured into the middle. The flavours are powerful but balanced, and it's exceptionally good. The wood-fired prawns (Dhs95) are meaty but a little dry, despite the plate being dotted with a basil cream and yellow capsicum gel. Our steaks arrive, and the 300-day grain-fed Black Market ribeye I order (Dhs380) is near perfection. Each bite melts in the mouth, it's cooked just as I like it, and when dipped in a side of chimichurri (Dhs30), it creates the perfect pairing. You'll need to order sides too, and the garlic butter spinach (Dhs45) is one we'd order over and over again. For dessert, we like the look of almost all of them, but the white chocolate soufflé (Dhs85) is the ideally indulgent end to a meal that hits almost all the high notes. With a great soundtrack, sophisticated ambience, and a buzzy vibe that makes you want to keep the evening going at the bar after dinner, The Cullinan makes a solid case for one of Dubai's best new restaurants. Verdict: This is a sleek date night spot worth splashing out on. The Cullinan, Jumeirah Marsa Al Arab, daily 12pm to 2am.
