By sharing each other's dishes we ended up eating Wagyu Tartare and Tiger prawns for a starter, followed by pan fried Barramundi and grilled Halibut. Bill came to AED 1630 (GBP 316) for two.
The restaurant (which has Space 2001 theme mixed with gold!) is adjacent to the Sky Bar where they have the most expensive cocktail in the world on offer.
The "27.321," named for the cost in UAE dirham (27,321 AED which is about $7,450) the floor where the Skyview Bar is located (27th) and the height of the Burj Al Arab (321 meters).
The cocktail is made from Macallan 55 year old single malt natural color whisky, exclusively produced 'dried fruit bitters' that carry and support the whisky's flavor, and homemade passion fruit sugar. The resulting cocktail is then served over ice cubes made of water from the Macallan distillery in Scotland, along with an oak stirrer made from a Macallan Cask. The cocktail is presented in a Baccarat 18-karat gold glass, which the buyer gets to take home!
Here (after a few cheaper whiskies!) is the mixologist beside his Guiness Book of Records display cabinet in the Sky Bar.
