Dubai Landmarks
Our second day in Dubai started on top of the world! We went up in Burj Khalifa which is the tallest building in the world. It's 829.8 meters tall! The view up there was excellent! A good thing was that they have an outdoor viewing balcony. The air was really nice and fresh up there! :-)
When we were back on ground level again we went to Dubai Aquarium and Underwater Zoo, which is located in Dubai Mall. We walked through the aquarium tunnel and had a look at all the fishes.
One of the highlights during our days in Dubai was a dinner at Burj Al Arab. The sail shaped hotel has been rated as a seven star hotel. The building is as beautiful as you can imagine and the location, on a man made island, is perfect.
We had reserved a table at Al Muntaha Restaurant located on the 27th floor. It was dark when we were there, so the view was a bit limited even if we had a window table. The restaurant was very nice and modern. We had a two course dinner. As a starter we had King Crab and Ratatouille Ravioli, Steamed Obsiblue Prawns in XO Sauce and Hot Gaspacho Sauce. The main course we chosed was Atlantic Cod Marinated in Ginger and Soy Sauce with Braised Chinese Lettuce and Wild Mushrooms. This was absolutely one of the best dinners I have had, not just because of the food, it was mainly because of the setting.
