Summer Place's Grand Reopening!

What used to be in Metropolitan Hotel, now has moved to the V Hotel in Al Habtoor city - reminiscent of the Land of the Dragons with a modern oriental interior touch, last night we got to taste their extensive menu and were left speechless - not just cause of the generous portions. 

31 floors into the sky Summer Place took us through a journey starting with a welcome gong upon entering this ambiently lit restaurant. A few steps in you're greeted by the smiling faces of the chefs at the live cooking stations that leave an aromatic sneak peek to what the menu has to offer. 

The Grand Opening Menu was a perfect selection of the variety Summer Place has to offer, from Yellow Mustard King Prawns in a flavourful Mango Salsa for starters to Wok Fried Lobster with a Black Bean Sauce for mains, the classic Aromatic Crispy Duck Rolls in between and a lush Mango Pudding for a sweet ending. 

Flavour is hit on the head with the dishes at Summer Place, a fusion of flavours that work perfectly on one's palate. The ambience is nothing short of class and refined tastes, with a beverage selection longer than one can think of. Cocktail ingredients ranging from dried pear to mango chocolate, we even got to sample the entire cocktail menu, safe to say, we were not disappointed (or driving home).

While we would go back for the food and drink, the panoramic view of the city skyline facing Sheikh Zayed Road is not too shabby at all. The perfect backdrop for a romantic evening out or to celebrate with the family. The restaurant is roomy and has space to breathe, they even have a corner for smokers to take in the view for an after-dinner nightcap. 

The perfect spot in the heart of the city to enjoy tasteful Asian cuisine while not compromising on quality or flair.
