Finz at the Beach Rotana Abu Dhabi has recently launched Saturlaze, a new weekend dining idea for those looking to chill out.
Every Saturday afternoon from 2pm to 6pm guests can perch themselves at the waterside restaurant and indulge in seafood stands packed with delicious seafood, along with some special creations from chef Christian Rosse. There’s a unique mocktail menu to choose from and a DJ to keep the day moving in the right direction.
Beach Rotana boss Mathieu van Alphen says he is excited about the concept. “Saturdays are about relaxing, getting away from the weekend chores, and spending time conversing with family and friends,” he says. “The atmosphere at Finz is perfectly suited for a chilled, elegant afternoon.”
Saturlaze packages at Finz at the Beach Rotana hotel start from Dh275. Bookings can be made by calling 02 697 9011 and emailing fb.beach@rotana.com. Visit www.rotanatimes.com/beachrotana.
