But I didn't find anything remotely comparable to it in Dubai, most of the time the food is good, sometimes great I dare to say, but almost always the service is really bad. Getting tired of the Philippino/Indian staff.

Not being racist or something, but a lot of restaurants here think serving people is like teaching a monkey a trick, while it is so much more than that! Exceptions to the rule which I found so far are Zuma and Lemongrass.
Nobu service is very good.

i think it's horrible...it's like a massive hanger, that they've tried to make look ok by whacking up loads of red everywhere and crystal chandeliers...then there are the restaurant tables to one side (hundreds of them, so hope it's busy or you'll feel like a total tool), and the bar and dance area on the other side...hideous people in there too...and drinks cos a fortune, a white wine is 85dhs, lmao...

why would you need to stay in the fairmont to go there though...?
