Sample some fresh-off-the-block ramen at SLRP by 3Fils
From the mind of a 3Fils genius comes a ramen concept you can’t miss out on. SLRP, is a homegrown brand serving handcrafted, freshly made ramen, kushiyaki and sushi. Lovers of authentic Japanese food, you might fancy heading over for some post-work dinner scenes.

Chill out with the family at Snow Abu Dhabi
No longer do Abu Dhabi residents have to make the drive down to Dubai to see snow in the UAE. Snow Abu Dhabi opened its doors over the summer and is the largest snow park in the region. The 10,000-square-foot area is home to 12 exhilarating rides, plus 17 engaging attractions. While there isn’t a ski slope here like in Ski Dubai, expect zip lining, sledding, carousels and zorbing. Don’t forget to rehearse your favourite Frozen song before you sleigh on over.
Snow Abu Dhabi, Reem Mall, Sun to Thurs 10am to 10pm, Fri to Sat 10am to midnight, Dhs215 per adult and Dhs165 per child. @snowauh
