Nobu, Hakkasan: Atlantis Restaurant Week brings fine dining at the most affordable rates to Dubai

Want the food and flavour but not the price tag? November is your lucky month. Dubai is turning up the heat in the kitchen with Atlantis Restaurant Week, which will run from Nov 10 to Nov 16.

Now, what does that mean? Essentially, you get prime cuisine at a fraction of the price you would normally pay. Visit Atlantis The Royal or Atlantis, The Palm and you’ll be able to tuck into curated spreads from some of the best spots in the city, including Gordon Ramsay's Bread Street Kitchen & Bar and the Michelin-starred Hakkasan.

So whether you want to impress a date or you are a foodie looking for taste bud adventure, here’s a look at what you can get and how much it will cost you.
