Why do you love Budda Bar? - We asked somehow I call in a celebrity from the Moscow elite.
It’s a rarity in Dubai that face control is here, ”metropolitan dandy answered us, peering arrogantly from colored pillows.
And, really, try to get into this cozy place hours after 11 pm without having to reserve a table. Or call and ask in a female voice for seats in a lounge for two .... Exactly, you are unlikely to succeed. But come early for dinner or leave a credit card number to freeze US $ 1000 for your company (the minimum cost of the table) - no one forbids. The main thing is to drink this amount, so that later it will not be excruciatingly painful for aimlessly spent. However, if you came with friends, it’s not at all difficult - order the girls for a cocktail Kir Royal, imagine something more serious and snacks. By the way, sushi and shrimp in batter are excellent here. The music mix is also pleasant, like in all the institutions of the Budda Bar network, after midnight the volume is increased, so you should not count on conversations. But the audience is the most motley - our people had a drink, with a residence permit at the Burj Al Arab hotel, there is a name table so that any day you can pick up a female company from a party at the bar. Some girls sometimes shamelessly use knowledge of this fact, and when they are not allowed at the entrance, they name the Caucasian names of regular guests.
By the way, one day our hero was also not allowed into one of the most popular local clubs at the Raffels Hotel. Either for inappropriate shoes, or for the lack of accompanying ladies. Of course, in the famous international magazine of Russian bottling it was presented as "rudeness of the staff." Well, the Arabian "face control" has its own peculiarities - you need to go to some entertainment venues with your own "samovar."
This rule applies to the new, and therefore super-fashionable Sanctuary club in the recently opened, with a grandiose pomp, Atlantis, The Palm hotel. Of course, it can be ignored if you reserve a table in advance with a slightly higher rate for minimum spend (minimum amount spent) than everywhere else. But there is something to pay for - good dance music, spacious and excellent service. I don’t know if single ladies are slowing down at the entrance to the Sanctuary, we have the familiar security here - they always let me in.
And in any other, the “coolest” local bar or night club, if you arrive early, in decent shoes (for men) and with money, the doors will be open. A couple of yourself, in extreme cases, you can pick up right at the entrance. However, if you are used to walking in the Bebebeder style, traveling from one institution to another, you may not understand too much noisy company. Otherwise, there are no special difficulties - you still can’t get an expensive car to the club entrance, you don’t have to have a model appearance, and even your favorite Patrizia Pepe jeans, local security is unlikely to distinguish it from Diesel.
So, an easy pass to Dubai nightclubs does not at all make you a model or an oligarch, think of something else for your favorite show-offs.
Yes, and do not forget to bring along some kind of document certifying your age, sometimes its absence serves as an excellent excuse not to let you in the "holy of holies", even if you look much older than 21 years old.
