Ramadan Nights at JA Beach Hotel: It's a feast under the stars
Step into the enchanting world of Ramadan at JA Beach Hotel's Palmito Garden, where the beachfront transforms into a stunning, lantern-lit oasis. A grand 'Ramadan Nights' display welcomes you, setting the tone for an evening filled with tradition, warmth, and indulgence. The beautifully arranged Majlis seating, golden-hued décor, and twinkling fairy lights create an intimate and serene atmosphere, making it the perfect place for meaningful gatherings. As you dine, the gentle melodies of live, peaceful music add a touch of magic to the air, making every moment feel special.
But let's talk about the real star of the night, the food.
The Iftar Buffet is an absolute feast of flavors, textures, and aromas. Start with the lavish salad bar, where crisp fattoush, creamy hummus, smoky moutabal, and zesty tabbouleh awaken your palate. The hot and cold mezze selection is a delight, featuring golden kibbeh, flaky sambousek, crispy spring rolls, and cheese rolls, each bite packed with rich flavors.
For mains, the slow-cooked lamb ouzi is a standout, melting in your mouth with every bite. The grilled seafood is perfectly seasoned, and the spiced chicken tagine brings a comforting warmth. Families will love the dedicated kids' corner, offering pasta, crispy fries, and nuggets to keep the little ones happy.
And then comes dessert, pure indulgence. From creamy Umm Ali and rich chocolate mousse to decadent mango cake, delicate baklava, and velvety cream-based mousses, the selection is nothing short of spectacular. Whether you crave a sweet, syrupy treat or a light, fruity delight, the spread has something for everyone.
For those arriving later, the Regular Dinner Buffet (8.30pm to 10.30pm) ensures no one misses out, while the à la carte suhoor (9pm to midnight) offers a more relaxed experience with manakeesh, Arabic coffee, and traditional sweets.
With pricing at Dh280 per adult on weekends and Dh260 per adult on weekdays, JA Beach Hotel's Palmito Garden delivers a full-package Ramadan experience, from breathtaking décor and peaceful live music to an unforgettable dining journey. Half-price for kids and corporate/group rates make it the ideal spot for families, friends, and colleagues to gather, reflect, and indulge in the beauty of the season.

‘Akhtaboot': The Arabic word for octopus spread its semantic tentacles from Greece
Seafood is popular in the UAE. Fish, shrimp, squid and more are consumed daily and cooked in a plethora of ways. One seafood delicacy that has recently become popular despite not being abundant in UAE waters is octopus. Our Arabic word of the week is a Latinised form of the Greek word oktopous. There are many other examples of Arabic words with Greek origins. Qartas, the word for paper, comes from khartes; isfinj, the word for sponge, comes from spongos; and tiryaq, the word for antidote, comes from theriake. The word akhtaboot can also be used to describe someone who is able to complete many tasks with ease. The octopus is a cephalopod mollusc with eight sucker-bearing arms, a soft body, strong beaklike jaws and no internal shell. It can be found in tropical and subtropical waters around the world. The largest species, the giant Pacific, can weigh up to 50kg and spans six metres. The smallest, the wolfi, also known as the star-sucker pygmy, weighs less than a gram. Octopus is eaten in countries like Japan, China, South Korea, Spain, Greece and Mexico. Some of the most famous octopus dishes are the Galician pulpo a la gallega, Japanese Takoyaki and Portuguese octopus ceviche. The akhtaboot is a relatively new addition to Arabic cuisine and is usually grilled or fried and served with rice.

Create Production brings Vox Cinemas' sonic identity to life with Hans Zimmer
Create Production has joined forces with Majid Al Futtaim Entertainment to unveil Fall in Love with Film, Vox Cinemas' latest brand film that signals a new chapter for the region's premier cinema operator. The cinematic tribute, released in celebration of Vox Cinemas' 25th anniversary, is underscored by an original score and sonic identity created by legendary composer Hans Zimmer. The emotionally rich film is a love letter to the power of cinema, weaving together themes of love, community, and escapism. At its heart is the story of a young boy growing up with the cinema as his lifelong companion. The narrative is brought to life by Zimmer's evocative score, blending Hollywood-style orchestration with 90s nostalgia and Arabic musical elements. As part of Vox's broader 'experience-first' strategy to reconnect with audiences, Create Production oversaw the entire creative process, from script development to full-scale production across eight regional markets. The campaign produced more than 85 assets in a variety of languages, formats, and platforms, ranging from IMAX screens to social media reels. Create also led localisation efforts across four languages and dialects, ensuring cultural resonance throughout the region. Muhammad Ashraf, Senior Producer at Create Production, said: 'Working alongside the Vox Cinemas team to develop a film worthy of Hans Zimmer's signature sound was a true privilege. We set out to craft a narrative that celebrates Vox's magic and elevates the region's sonic identity.' The brand film is currently screening in Vox Cinemas across the Middle East, with additional distribution on digital platforms, social media, and out-of-home advertising. The custom sonic branding developed for the campaign will continue to roll out throughout 2025, becoming an integral part of the Vox experience—from cinema lobbies to customer service interactions. This project adds to Create Production's portfolio of landmark regional campaigns, continuing its track record of high-profile collaborations, including previous work with Zimmer and large-scale productions across the Middle East.
