… is that you become the go-to person for recommendations for everyone in your contact list. It might be for a close friend, a friend of a friend that's visiting from out of town, or that person you exchanged numbers with at brunch five years ago. It might be for ideas on a sweet new breakfast spot, the city's best burger, or a new restaurant that's sure to wow visitors. Regardless of the person or occasion, I'm the one everyone turns to.
But I'm lucky to have the expertise of tens of thousands of in-the-know experts behind my recommendations. Because now, when I'm next asked for my thoughts on where someone should go, I can simply direct them to the winners of the What's On Abu Dhabi Awards 2023. After votes were cast in record breaking numbers, the leading lights of the city's leisure and hospitality scene gathered last month for a dazzling evening of celebration at W Abu Dhabi - Yas Island. On the night, gongs were awarded to an array of worthy winners covering everything from restaurants and food concepts to leisure and entertainment, whose patrons firmly believe are the best in the business. Join us in congratulating them from p15.
On the subject of business, we're getting straight down to it on p29, with Abu Dhabi's best business lunches. From elegant French restaurants to homegrown eateries with views of the ocean, let these spots ensure you get that next deal over the line.
Enjoy the issue,
