March to Be a Busy Month at Sheraton Grand Hotel, Dubai

With Mothers’ Day and Earth Hour falling within its dates, March is set to be a busy month. At Sheraton Grand Hotel, Dubai, several events have been planned to mark these events, from sweet treats and spa treatments to an evocative candlelit yoga session. The hotel has also introduced a mixology masterclass at its Friday Feast brunch, making this fun weekend happening even more lively.

FEAST

Mums dine for free at Feast

On Sunday, 11 and Saturday, 24 March, mothers who visit with their offspring can dine at Feast Restaurant free of charge. Even better, the venue’s expert chefs will make the experience extra-special by preparing a delightful dessert buffet adorned with flowers and featuring cute cakes decorated with thoughtful sentiments such as ‘Thanks you’ and ‘Best mom’. Serving areas will be laden with cheese, olives and artisan bread; there will also be a carving station. This event is expected to be popular and table reservations are thus encouraged.

Take a mixology class at the Friday Feast brunch

The long-running Friday Feast brunch now has a mixology lab, an interactive station where diners can mix their own Martinis and mojitos and make their own customised beverages with the help of expert bar staff who will teach them a thing or two about making cocktails. A fun, interactive experience, it is available free of charge at the weekly event, at which guests can indulge in many international culinary delights.

Youngsters will be entertained in the Little Explorers’ Corner, and the tasty, expertly prepared fare for under-12s is specially tailored to smaller tummies. Best of all, the brunch, which features live music, will end with a bumper prize bonanza.
