Mean treats
You better have your meme ready on October 3 (if you know, you know) to go with your box of themed mini cupcakes from Sugargram. The sweet destination has unveiled a box with 25 tiny cupcakes to share with your gang of “Plastics” as you recite all of the famous quotes from the movie splashed across the front of the box. Whether you’re all for the red velvet cupcake that’s just as fiery as the character or mini treat that packs in some festive flavours, there are plenty of unique combinations to enjoy while re-watching the much-loved flick. The Sugargram’s box is priced at Dhs125 and you can get an additional “” T-shirt for Dhs50.
Chill with a view
Kick off your weekend with a happy hour at Dubai’s ultimate chill out spot QD’s – located at the Dubai Creek Golf & Yacht Club. The venue has reopened with all the usual dining and shisha options to enjoy while marvelling at the spectacular views of Dubai Creek. The happy hour runs from 6pm to 8pm with drinks available for as little as Dhs28. We suggest staying for dinner to enjoy a diverse menu that features Middle Eastern, Indian and Mediterranean dishes.

Find your zen
Looking for a unique yoga experience? LAH LAH at Zabeel House, The Greens, is launching DEEP HOUSE YOGA DXB on Friday, October 2 that merges the practice with music. Held outdoors on the grass area, Yoga instructor Jes Body and DJ Charl Chaka are working closely together to create a unique musical deep house yoga flow. Priced at Dhs100 per person, the practice begins with a 15-minute warmup following by an opening yoga circle for an hour before finishing with a meditation.
