if your not planning on attending, please do not post on this thread. Its people like you that spoil threads and ultimately when the night out is a flop, its your fault.

That's a bit harsh, mate. I've said I'll be going--just seems that the Christmas spirit is a bit lacking in this thread...:-)

Just wanted to know where Leftbank is, that's all. I go to the Burj Khalifa area regularly on business but have never come across it. Still none the wiser...and I do go to things like the Arte Souq.

Level 2 at SAB, overlooks the fountains apparently. I've only been to the one at the Madinat before, but by far one of the most chilled out bars here IMHO.

correct. IIRC there is an outside balcony.

There is another pretty cool bar next to it..cant for the life remember its name. Marrakesh or something?

I love it down there.

Having a few beers and watching the water display is great.

Oh it's the famous one where the hottest and most expensive Russian hookers in Dubai hang out. Now I know the place you are talking about. Sounds good to me.
