Eid Al Adha: What team Time Out Dubai is doing
The long weekend is finally here – hurrah! Just like you, us here at Time Out Dubai are also looking forward to the Eid Al Adha break. The weather might be a bit hotter than we'd like, but it's not stopping us from making the most of what the city has to offer. If you like reading this, then you'll love: The best things to do over Eid Al Adha in Dubai So hear it from the horse's mouth. We're giving you an inside look into the diaries of team Time Out Dubai, to find out what we've got in store for the next few days. Emilie Hill: Editor Credit: Eugène Eugène I can't wait to tuck into: a steak dinner at Eugène Eugène I am already thinking about the bavette steak at Eugène Eugène, a stunning restaurant tucked away at Kempinski Mall of the Emirates. I have been known to pull up a chair here for the bread basket alone and coupled with Eugene's greenhouse vibe, this is one of those places to hunker down any evening of the week. Just be sure to book ahead as chances are other diners are dreaming of being here this weekend too. Open daily noon-11.30pm. Kempinski Mall of the Emirates, Al Barsha, 04 379 8963 ( You'll see me at: La Cantine Beach (Credit: La Cantine Beach) Ooh, this is a beautiful spot. You'll definitely get a good Insta down here while and whether you choose a beachy spot or a lounger by the pool, you'll see what I mean in no time. Be to try something fresh from the grill and perhaps a wagyu beef carpaccio before you head home. Although not redeemable with your pool pass, the menu is too good to pass up on. Dhs200 (weekdays), Dhs250 (weekends). Open daily 10am-midnight, Delano, Bluewaters Island, (04 556 6622). There's no way I'm missing: a yoga class at Delano Dubai You'll find me bright and early at Delano Dubai resort over on Bluewaters (I know, there's a theme) as HWH Pilates Studio is hosting a morning yoga class. As part of your ticket, you'll also find a goodie bag from Shiseido waiting for you on your yoga mat. Dhs250. Sat Jun 7, 10.30am. Delano Dubai, Bluewaters @hwhstudiodubai Aimee Jakes: Digital Editor You'll see me at: a dreamy beach-club pop-up The 305 has teamed up with Benefit this summer to give us the beach club takeover of dreams. Honestly? There's nowhere else I'd rather spend the bumper long weekend. For Dhs200, you get pool and beach access, two drinks and a dish, two Benefit goodies and a brow service thrown in. For an extra Dhs50, you can also bag a sunbed. Count me in. From Dhs200. Open Sun-Thu 9am-10pm; Fri-Sat 9am-midnight. The Club, Palm West Beach, Palm Jumeirah, (04 423 8322). I can't wait to tuck into: an Acai Bowl and an iced blueberry matcha Hot weather calls for cool snacks, and I'll be grabbing both of these at Joe and the Juice, which has just opened a brand-new branch at Dubai Marina Mall. Prices vary. Open Mon-Fri 7.30am-11pm; Sat-Sun 7.30am-midnight. Dubai Marina Mall, @joeandthejuiceuae There's no way I'm missing: a sweaty workout at Dryp It may be hot in Dubai, but there is still nowhere else I'd rather spend my free time than sweating in an extra-hot studio doing a Pilates sculpt class. Dryp utilises infrared technology, giving you plenty of incredible health benefits as well as those lovely post-sweat endorphins. Prices vary. Open Mon-Wed 6am-10pm,Thu 7.30pm-10pm, Fri 7.30am-7pm, Sat 8am-6.30pm, Sun 8am-8pm. Dryp, Oraa Marina Tower, Dubai Marina, Dubai, (04 220 5330). Findlay Mair: News Editor (Credit: Kokoro Handroll Bar) You'll see me: exploring a busy food hall I'm heading to Market Island at Dubai Festival City Mall to film a vlog for our TikTok page. It's one of the largest food halls in the region, so there's plenty of choice. While I'm there, I'll pick up a new speaker for the office since our current one has, sadly, seen better days. As a reward, I expect there to be strictly no Taylor Swift played when we get back (sorry, Swifties). And, since I'm a sucker for a trend, I might actually pick up one of those Lababus that everyone keeps talking about. I can't wait to tuck into: some of the city's top Asian dishes This one is a real toss-up between two of our favourite anti-tourist trap restaurants. It's been a minute since I visited the rubber ducks at Kokoro Handroll Bar and tucked into a crab handroll, so I need to go back to see if it's as good as I remember. The same goes for the ketoprak at Harummanis. You know what? Since we've got four days off, I don't have to choose. I'll go to both. Kokoro Handroll Bar: Open Mon-Sun from noon. Alserkal Avenue, Al Quoz, Harummanis: Open Mon 6pm-11pm, Tue-Sun noon -11pm. Al Wasl 51, Jumeirah 1, (056 536 1674). There's no way I'm missing: The chance to take it easy In a city as wild as Dubai, it's rare that you get a moment to yourself to switch off. From historical exhibits to a quiet pint to yourself, our introvert's guide to Dubai is calling my name. Sian Traynor: Features Editor You'll see me: Trundling along Sheikh Zayed Road on the way to my Eid staycation. After spending the last few weeks sharing all of the best hotel deals, it would be rude not to make the most of one for myself. I've got my eye on a night or two in a lush room at Banyan Tree, which is offering 20 percent off rates, a daily brekkie and 20 percent off in dining and spa treatments for UAE residents. Paired with a sea view to wake up to every morning, I'll be in my element. Bluewaters Island, (04 556 6666). I can't wait to tuck into: Blueprint cookies Usually I'm a savoury girl, but for some reason cookies don't seem to apply to this rule. So when I heard Floridian favourite Blueprint was opening its first Dubai store, a visit to try the Mom's Apple Pie flavour was immediately scheduled in my diary. Can't get to the new branch? Try one of our other top cookie picks here. Opening Fri Jun 6. Mall of the Emirates, There's no way I'm missing: A Dhs1 car rental Yes, you heard correctly. SelfDrive mobility are offering daily car rentals for Dhs1, as a special deal for Eid Al Adha, meaning you can hit the road for almost nothing. I'll be rolling up to my staycay in a brand-new whip and might even swing round on one of these two-hour road trip routes on the way home. From Dhs1. Jun 5-8, (600 567564).
