It’s all about fish at The Jazz Bar & Dining at the Hilton Abu Dhabi this month with organic being the order of the day.
The menu, which is available daily from 7pm until 10.30pm, has been specially designed by the hotel’s new executive chef Walter Miculan to show that the secret to good food lies in the freshness of the ingredients.
Starters include a choice of citrus-cured wild seabass served with an organic quinoa salad and a sesame ponzu dressing or organic salmon tartar with poached quail eggs, a mandarin fennel salad, and Yasa caviar.
The mains on offer include pan-seared wild seabass fillet placed delicately on a parsnip puree, and served a side of Romanesco broccoli, warm tomatoes and a chive emulsion or crispy-skin organic salmon steak with potato and turkey ham croquettes, and curried chickpea ragout.
The fish menu starts from Dh75 (excluding taxes) is available in addition to the restaurant’s a la carte menu and diners are entertained by the hotel band DNA who perform from 9.30 each evening from Sunday through Friday.

La Mer beach is open from 10am until midnight, daily, and is located in Jumeirah 1, well after Kite Beach. Some restaurants, like Cupagahwa, are open from 8am for breakfast; most others start at noon. At the time of writing, we noticed that signs for Vicolo, an Italian eatery, and Kaftan, a Turkish restaurant, indicated that these two restaurants will be open soon, most likely this month. Parking is available, as well as a Dh100 all-day valet option or a Dh50 valet service if you’re just stopping by for a few hours.

Electoral College Victory
Trump has so far secured 295 Electoral College votes, according to the Associated Press, exceeding the 270 needed to win. Only Nevada and Arizona remain to be called, and both swing states are leaning Republican. Trump swept all five remaining swing states, North Carolina, Georgia, Pennsylvania, Michigan and Wisconsin, sealing his path to victory and giving him a strong mandate.
Popular Vote Tally
The count is ongoing, but Trump currently leads with nearly 51 per cent of the popular vote to Harris’s 47.6 per cent. Trump has over 72.2 million votes, while Harris trails with approximately 67.4 million.
