Sheikh Mohammed visited this popular sky high terrace this weekend

The Ruler of Dubai posed for a photo in front of the Burj Khalifa…

Since the first export of world-famous Singaporean restaurant, CÉ LA VI opened at the brand new Address Sky View hotel in January 2020, the restaurant, coupled with the hotel’s 54th floor terrace has been the talk of the town.

The restaurant shares the wrap-around outdoor terrace with an infinity pool which offers visitors a unique view of the Burj Khalifa and beyond – and it’s this that has had Dubai’s influencers clamouring for that perfect Instagram shot (we know you know which one we’re talking about).

Now, the view has had the royal seal of approval as H.H. Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum Vice President of the UAE and Ruler of Dubai paid a visit to the hotel on Saturday, February 15.

Sheikh Mohammed posed for a picture on the terrace which CÉ LA VI posted to their Instagram page expressing that it was “a great honour to welcome him”, although he did not actually dine at the restaurant.

The 169-room Address Sky View property boasts a variety of luxurious rooms ranging from the 63 square metre premium room, right up to a 230 square metre presidential suite. With floor to ceiling windows, guests are invited to marvel at the stunning city, or sea views from the comfort of their sophisticated suite.

If you do want to visit CÉ LA VI, expect a menu described as ‘contemporary Asian’, which was designed by head chef Howard Ko. Dishes to try include roasted Mediterranean sea bass, Kiwami Wagyu beef tartare and squid ink tagliatelle.

With floor-to-ceiling windows making the most of the incredible views, the inside restaurant is decked out in warm hues, with wooden panelling and soft gold and red furnishings giving it a decidedly luxe feel.
