There's a cool new Formula One-inspired mocktail in Abu Dhabi
This race day-inspired mocktail is simply called Grand Prix , and it's part of La Petite Maison Abu Dhabi's cool new beverage menu, Déjà vu, that was unveiled last night on World Cocktail Day.
With elderflower and pear taking pole position, the beverage, priced at Dhs52 (yes, LPM can be surprisingly affordable) celebrates one of the world's favourite races, the Monaco Grand Prix, known for taking place on a unique 'street-circuit' layout. Its cocktail counterpart is called, you guessed it, Monaco.
Which should tell you how cleverly the new menu's been designed. It also packs in 9 other creatively conceptualised mocktails, including the Jane (Dhs118), with cantaloupe and tonic water (named after Jane Birkin). It's cocktail counterpart? The Birkin (also Dhs118) – served complete with a silk scarf. Talk about finesse.
See a pattern? Déjà vu is cool, smart and clever – a mocktail list of 10 beverages, and a cocktail list serving 10 of its own – placed next to each other, the creations complement each other – all celebrating the Golden Age of the French Riviera.

Other interesting creations that grabbed our attention include the BB Sour/Tropezienne Sour , with lemon, honey and citrus olive oil, the Soleil/Solaris with pink grapefruit, cucumber and lemon, and of course, the Garden of Eden with salted pink apple and lavender soda.
While we had to conclude things there since this was a Tuesday night, Déjà vu is an extensive, creative 'carte de boissons' of meticulous masterpieces designed and presented as a print magazine, rolling back the years to 1975. We'll go as far as to say this has the potential to follow in the footsteps of the Le Monde d'Hermès collectors' edition catalogues.
French actress, singer, and model Brigitte Bardot makes the cover, before you flip through a whole new world of signature LPM hospitality. And if you're a traditionalist…
…you can have a real déjà vu and order the evergreen Tomatini/Tomatino, or Lettre à Coco (inspired by Coco Chanel and Jean Cocteau's friendship).

Alden Richards Begins Flight School to Fulfill Dream He Shares with His Father
Actor Alden Richards has officially started flight school, taking the first step toward becoming a licensed pilot—a dream he says belongs not only to him but also to his father. In a GMA News report, the actor attended his flight school's induction ceremony accompanied by his family. He expressed his fascination with how large aircraft are able to fly and how they are navigated through the skies. Alden shared that he has always felt a strong desire to pursue the dreams of his parents that they weren't able to achieve. He said entering showbiz fulfilled his mother's dream, while becoming a pilot is something his father once wanted for himself—and now he has embraced it as his own passion too. Despite his busy schedule in show business, the Kapuso star said he is committed to completing the two-year course. He emphasized the importance of time management, saying it is key to balancing his career and studies. After graduating, he plans to become a commercial pilot. Earlier today, Alden posted photos of his first day on Instagram, writing, 'Day 1 starts today…' In April, he visited a flight school in Clark, Pampanga, as part of his preparations. In a 2023 interview, Alden revealed that he originally gave up on his pilot dreams due to the high cost of training.
