      Lifeby Camille Macawili2 hours ago Japanese restaurants are aplenty in Dubai’s highly competitive dining scene.With more than a handful to choose from in the city, Netsu faces stiff competition. But with a prestigious address that comes with stunning beachside and city views, a line up of mouth-watering gastronomy, and chef Ross’s incredible attention to detail, both in food and in decor – there’s a plenty of reasons to choose this lively Japanese steakhouse every time.We’re giving you five –1. The usual suspects (sushi and sashimi) are beautifully presented, fresh and hits the spot. Beyond that, you can savour different melt-in-your-mouth wagyu variants – from Japanese to Australian – seared in front of you by the restaurant’s grill masters. Its premium standards and an unfussy marinade mean that you get all the deliciousness with the perfect marbling and luscious fat, without any downsides leaving you craving for more. Let’s not forget one of the many stellar highlights: the truffle wagyu sando, probably one of the best in the city.2. Dubai has a fondness for Japanese restaurants however, not many are helmed by an acclaimed chef such as Australian-born Ross Shonhan. Through his culinary wizardry, the ex-Zuma and Nobu head chef takes a contemporary approach to authentic Japanese cuisines.3.

Netsu’s design is as spectacular as its menu. The interior impresses with a vibrant design with a Kabuki indoor setting plus, beachside expansive outdoor terrace for al fresco dining during cooler months, and lastly, front-row counter seats to witness a theatrical spectacle of fiery flames and skills of Chef Ross’s hardworking team.5.

      Your ultimate weekend in Dubai, July 21 to July 23, 2023.
      Spacation

      It is a four-in-one half-day spa experience like no other. This unique combination is the ultimate way to rid yourself of daily stresses and drift into a state of complete bliss. Guests are invited to begin their journey with a cleansing experience through the thermal bathing facilities, which combine heat, humidity, and falling water to soften the skin, relax muscles, stimulate circulation, and open the pores for maximum treatment benefits. After the thermal indulgence, enjoy a choice of one 25-minute signature treatment – either a massage, detoxifying body scrub, or body wrap – delivered by highly trained therapists in the calming sanctuary of one of the Giorgio Armani-designed private treatment rooms.
