Diversity of cuisine awaits you in Abu Dhabi - sample authentic Emirati food in a fine dining setting, take in dinner while watching racing cars speed by on our F1 circuit, visit trendy, brand-name restaurants and award-winning outlets, or relax at beachside buffets while taking in superb Arabian Gulf views.

Taking a break from sight-seeing? Head out to one of Abu Dhabi's spas as many of the locals do, for a relaxing and rejuvenating experience. Discover everything from the über-luxurious and brand-named spas, usually found in five-star hotels, to individual and more affordable ones in independent villas and shopping malls.
