      The UAE royals have guaranteed this restaurant is a must-visit.
      Known for his love for food, His Highness Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, the Vice President and Prime Minister of the UAE and Ruler of Dubai, has given Chef Izu Ani’s latest restaurant a royal thumbs up.
      In a video shared on Chef Izu’s Instagram, Sheikh Mohammed is seen exchanging a handshake with the restauranteur outside new venue Alaya, whilst also sharing a few moments of laughter together.
      “Happiness is found in the smaller moments, the beauty of sharing our time with others, and conversations that touch and inspire us,” he also captioned the post. “I am so grateful for all of the support we have received from His Highness and the country that we are so blessed to live in.”

      Sheikh Mohammed’s visit comes a few days after his son, His Highness Sheikh Hamdan bin Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, the Crown Prince of Dubai paid a visit to Alaya.
      Masterminded by Chef Izu and one of Emirates Man’s former cover stars Evgeny Kuzin, the concept is nothing short of extraordinary, with a combination of Mediterranean and Middle Eastern influences. Inspired by their travels, each dish is prepared with the freshest ingredients.
      After only opening last month, the restaurant has gained quite a bit of traction as the duo has brought a new concept to DIFC. By taking each visitor on a culinary journey, the warm inviting space, ensures guests feel at home from the moment they enter.
      Having previously visited other fine-dining establishments under the same group, Sheikh Mohammed is known to be a fan of Gaia and Shanghai Me.
      The restaurant is now well truly on the scene, especially if Sheikh Mohammed and Sheikh Hamdan have both paid a visit.

      His Highness Sheikh Hamdan bin Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, the Crown Prince of Dubai, has shared some adorable new photographs of his father doting on his grandchildren, twins Rashid bin Hamdan bin Mohammed Al Maktoum and Shaikha bint Hamdan bin Mohammed Al Maktoum.
      In the photos, His Highness Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, the Vice President and Prime Minister of the UAE and Ruler of Dubai, is seen spending quality time with the little ones whilst they holiday in the UK as a family.
      The first photograph shows the Dubai Ruler with little Shaikha, helping her to walk. The second photo shared by Sheikh Hamdan shows Sheikh Mohammed with young Rashid, playing in the garden.

      Along with the photos, Sheikh Hamdan, who is affectionately known as Fazza, shared a poem Sheikh Mohammed penned about twins Rashid and Shaikha in Arabic.
      The Dubai Ruler himself shared the poem on his official Instagram page alongside a photograph previously shared by Sheikh Hamdan of the four enjoying quality time in the UK together.

      Summer in London
      Fazza has been enjoying a long holiday in London over the summer months.
      Just a couple of weeks ago, he was spending time in the UK’s capital and was seemingly able to go about his day being unrecognised.
      His Highness shared a selfie on Instagram with his friend Badr Ateej riding the crowded London Underground.
      “We’ve got a long way to go and Badr is already bored,” he said in the caption of the post.

      A few weeks prior, the Crown Prince of Dubai was recognised around central London as he was driving. In a video captured by Sheikh Hamdan’s friend Ahmad Jaber Al Harbi, the royal is seen interacting with two fans.
      Sheikh Hamdan was in his car driving in the city when he was stopped for some photos by the two individuals, who also happened to be Dubai residents.
      Not ever one to say no to a photo, Dubai’s Crown Prince enthusiastically posed with the fans, even helping them to get the right shot.
      At one point in the video, the male fan says “Sorry to bother you” but Fazza responded saying, “No, it’s okay”, also shaking his hand.

      His Highness is a regular visitor to the United Kingdom, as are many other members of the Dubai royal family.

      He may have 14.5 million followers on Instagram and be one of the most high-profile royals in the UAE, but HH Sheikh Hamdan bin Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum has proven even he can go incognito from time to time.
      Currently on holiday in the UK, the Crown Prince of Dubai has been spending ample amounts of time in London.
      Over the weekend, Sheikh Hamdan, affectionately known as Fazza, was spending time in the UK’s capital and was seemingly able to go about his day being unrecognised.
      His Highness shared a selfie on Instagram with his friend Badr Ateej riding the crowded London Underground.
      “We’ve got a long way to go and Badr is already bored,” he said in the caption of the post.

      At one point in the video, the male fan says “Sorry to bother you” but Fazza responded saying, “No, it’s okay”, also shaking his hand.

      Regular visitor
      His Highness is a regular visitor to the United Kingdom, as are many other members of the Dubai royal family.
      Sheikh Hamdan’s father, His Highness Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, the Vice President and Prime Minister of the UAE and Ruler of Dubai, is also currently in the UK and was seen walking around London with an entourage over the weekend.
      The Dubai royals have also been enjoying some quality time together.
      Last week, Sheikh Hamdan, shared a snap on Instagram with his father and his two children, Rashid and Shaikha, spending time together in the UK.

      In the forefront of the photo, the twins are seen sitting in a pushchair, with doting dad Sheikh Hamdan and grandfather Sheikh Mohammed behind.
      Sheikh Hamdan captioned the post with three heart emojis: one red, one blue and one pink, representing the Dubai Ruler and his two grandchildren.

      His Highness Sheikh Hamdan bin Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, the Crown Prince of Dubai, is known for his kind gestures and truly getting to know the people of the UAE.
      From lending a helping hand to those in need to being a doting dad, His Highness continues to inspire the people of the nation.
      As we dig into the archives, Emirates Woman takes a look at some of Sheikh Hamdan’s most heartwarming and inspiring moments.
      Extending a helping hand

      At the annual Dubai Fitness Challenge in 2021, Sheikh Hamdan joined the participating residents in the 5km and 10km run and was seen assisting an 18-year-old with a rare genetic condition. He participated in the last race with Rio Watson who has a chromosome disorder known as Iq44 deletion denovo that affects motor and speech functions. The official @teamangelwolf Instagram page said, “Thank you for being such an inspiring leader, a true role model, and making time for your community!”.
      Heartfelt praises

      Sheikh Hamdan is known for praising the good people of Dubai. Recently, the Crown Prince praised a Talabat delivery driver for removing two concrete blocks causing a road obstruction to oncoming traffic. The good deed was caught on camera which was shared on Instagram by Sheikh Hamdan where he referred to the individual’s actions as “an act of goodness in Dubai to be praised” and called on his followers to help him find the man. Once found, Fazza personally thanked him on social media.
      Taking a selfie with fans abroad

      In a recent visit to the UK’s capital, this down-to-earth royal was seen interacting with two of his fans when he was in the car. He took time to stop for some photos with the two individuals and enthusiastically posed with the fans. He even patiently waited to ensure they get the right shot. In a span of 24 hours, the video went viral garnering nearly 300,000 views and around 20,000 likes.
      Being a doting dad

      Since welcoming his two children Rashid and Shaikha in 2021, Fazza has been the ultimate doting dad. One particularly sweet moment was when he took the twins to visit the giraffes. The father-of-two shared two beautiful snaps on Instagram of himself with the little ones.
      Kind words for his father

      Much like his father, His Highness Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, the Vice President and Prime Minister of the UAE and Ruler of Dubai, Fazza is also a keen writer and poet. Showcasing one of his hidden talents, Sheikh Hamdan wrote a poem for his father back in 2018.
      He wrote, “This is the son of Rashid the great oneHe sees through his mind before his eyesThrough his global vision coming from above the cloudsHe creates for you glory in the skies.”
