I must say that most of us living down here (UAE) love the Ramadan experience that awaits each year. There’s always a sense of calmness and community, and more I can’t really describe with words. At Iftar (breaking fast) time, people come together in their homes and dining places, and break their fast like one big family regardless of religion. This year, Vida Downtown is bringing a contemporary feel to Ramadan by offering a refreshing way to break their fast with a modern menu, and a fashionable pop-up.

Vida Downtown is going out of its way this Ramadan, and has put together a creative take on the Holy Month, to make sure you have a seamless Ramadan experience. It is just the kind of ambiance you’d need when you are breaking your fast with family and friends.

Inspiring Ramadan Experience at Vida Downtown

Fashionable Iftar at 3in1

Chef James Knight-Pacheo is waiting to take you on a creative culinary journey that is full of new delectable Arabian inspired dishes including a live Saje station, live Salad station and a pizza oven where you can customize your own pizza pies. You will also get to enjoy a colorful, interactive juice display, full of freshly squeezed delights, as Vida Downtown has revamped every aspect of its Ramadan spread.

Since the hotel has made a commitment towards cutting down on food wastage, they have opted to have a delicious selection of its hot mains made to order and served directly to the table on large sharing boards. The selections will keep on changing daily. And if you prefer the outdoors, you can move onto the terrace or the pool deck, which will be fully fitted with air coolers (because you know, it’s quite blazing during this time). Here you will enjoy hand crafted Ramadan beverages and an array of shisha flavors while taking in the beauty of Downtown Dubai. Make sure to make your booking for this Ramadan experience before May 12^th.

Contemporary Suhoor at 3in1

If you prefer not to catch some zzzzzzs, feel free to relax through the evening catching up with friends and family at the outdoor terrace while you soak in the majestic Downtown Dubai views. For Suhoor (a meal taken early in the morning before fasting) an à La Carte menu will be on offer serving a selection of Arabic dishes, mezze and sweets – making it a creative Suhoor you don’t want to miss.
