Habtoor Grand Resort and Spa is delighting diners with their ‘Dinner in the Sky’ dining experience, which suspends a table in the air 50 meters above the beach, loaded with food, 22 guests, chef, and waiter. The idea for ‘Dinner in the Sky’ began two years ago and is operated by Mindset Media and Event Horizon. It will launch on 4 October 2009.
The hotel’s food and beverage director Thomas Kathman said dinner costs Dh780, lunch Dh 600, and tea Dh300. Meals last an hour and a half. Event Horizon partner Sean Keith said “You will need a bit of a head for heights, but almost all our guests end up really enjoying having their dinner floating high above the ground.”
