Easy there, Alice. Once you’ve spent an evening with shisha, the root of the Caterpillar’s irritation is palpable. Smoking a blend of grape and mint flavour through a hookah is a profoundly relaxing way to spend an evening, and anyone who threatens to take you away from it fully deserves a sound walloping.
Queen of Sheba is a gorgeous room — dark, elegant and comfortable, just by the stylish poolside terrace. You can choose from their selection of tea and coffee, mocktails, energy drinks or the strawberry smoothie — which is a blend of fresh strawberries and ice cream — just right to start the night.
In seven words: Perfect venue for flavoured shishas and appetisers
What we liked: Lanterns emanating dim, romantically dusky lighting
What we didn’t like: Having to make do with Haagen Daz’s ice cream for dessert
Restaurant best for: Chilled night out with friends and family
Cost for one: Dh140-200 (including shisha)
Did you know: It is believed that Abul Fazel Gilani, a Persian physician in the Mughal emperor Akbar’s court, who “first passed the smoke of tobacco through a small bowl of water to purify and cool the smoke” and thus invented the hubble-bubble or hookah.
