THE CATALAN CUISINE: Truly Sumptuous!

The OSSIANO  might not ring a bell. But, it resonates. An exquisite elegance with fine dining arrogance is on the air when chef Santi Santamaria, the three star Michelin chef, offers gourmet food in a seductive ambience in the underwater world of Atlantis. In his first venture outside Europe, the ‘Architect of Food’ offers an intensity of flavours and a focus on technique with his Catalan cuisine in an elegant space inspired by the ocean depths.

Ossiano offers superb cuisine in a stunning setting in the underwater world of Atlantis. An elegant and mysterious space designed with variations of silver and pearl, it is the perfect location for an intimate dining experience, with unmatched views into the marine habitat filled with live sharks and fish.

No wonder, nothing seems to have been spared to make this fabulous, defined interior restaurant and bar lounge. Sculpting spaces, as we descended the restautant's long, winding staircase, is no longer about just décor and ambience. Here, its understated elegance.

The juxtaposition of such diverse elements as steel, grey leather, mesh, East European chandeliers and Venetian mirror and glass, serves a purpose, obviously wants to combine both the old world charm of refined dining and décor and the minimalist aesthetic of our times.

A large, tranquil expanse, hemmed by aquarium glass panels are the focal points aside from its soft blue glowing hush-hush ambience. The low-lit decor resonates romantic and mutedly decadent, and the soft opera music finishes this relaxing feel.

Atlantis Dubai: Underwater Luxury

              the Palm Jumeirah- the 8th Wonder of the World


The Palm Jumeirah where ATLANTIS HOTEL is located,is a man-made island created using land reclamation by Nakheel, a company owned by the Dubai government.The Palm Jumeirah is in the shape of a palm tree. It consists of a trunk, a crown with 16 fronds, and a surrounding crescent island that forms an 11 kilometre long breakwater. The Palm Jumeirah is touted as soon to be one of the world’s premier resorts. The Palm Island is the self-declared ‘Eighth Wonder of the World’.

                    the Luxurious- Atlantis Dubai
In Plato’s account, Atlantis was a naval power lying “in front of the Pillars of Hercules” that conquered many parts of Western Europe and Africa 9,000 years before the time of Solon, or approximately 9600 BC.


After a failed attempt to invade Athens, Atlantis sank into the ocean “in a single day and night of misfortune”…….

                       Underwater Hotel Wall

Atlantis rebirth itself in the famous The Palm in Dubai,
From your first glimpse of the arabesque Royal Towers of Atlantis The Palm, Dubai, you’ve entered a new dimension of luxury.

                                 THE LOBBY
Everything is on a grand scale – 1,539 rooms and suites; 17 restaurants, bars, and lounges; and a 42-acre water park. It’s all set on a palm tree-shaped island whose manmade limbs extend across the Persian Gulf.
At 1,780 square feet, the underwater Lost Chambers suites are just as remarkable. Bedroom and bathroom look into the waters of the Ambassador Lagoon, home to 65,000 marine animals….an indulgence and a total new experience of Arabian Nights.
Dining at Atlantis The Palm, Dubai runs the gamut, with exceptional seafood choices, which we opted for SAFFRON…a buffet with sumptuous and mouthwatering display of seafoods,desserts and local sweets and delicacies.

                              FRESH OYSTERS
Where the legendary fresh oysters were a feast to the braves in raw eating arena.The sushi bar is really an indulgence. I opted for teppanyakis,

                        JAPANESE DELIGHTS
deep fried batter tiger prawns in savoury gravies, jumbo crabs steamed with chili curry flavour with spring onions and coconut milk.
We ordered white wine to enhance our pallettes..tasting more this time with fried rice in pineapple, beef red curry, roasted Peking duck, steamed codfish in lemongrass and mixed vegetables stir-fried.

The atmosphere buzzes with us eating for pleasure…like a family
