Burn 1,000 calories for one dirham 

There isn’t much you can get for a dirham in Dubai, but BARE DXB is offering classes for exactly that at its flashy new workout studio in THAT Concept Store, Mall of the Emirates, for an entire week. To celebrate the opening of the store you can sign up for a killer workout and pay just one UAE dirham for each class from March 28 to April 3 inclusive. The offer is open to all, both existing and new clients, and each taxing training session will be split into two parts; fat blasting on the brand new ‘skillmill’ treadmills and barbell strength building exercises. Look and feel one million times better for just one dirham!

The folks eat for free

Kids, isn't it time you took your parents out for meal? There’s fun, food and fuss-free hospitality for all the family at Rove Hotels during the school holidays, with unbeatable room-stay and dining offers for parents and Mini-Rovers alike. 

Perhaps the best one though is from the March 25 until April 10, parents dine for free with every paying child at The Daily restaurants in Rove Trade Centre, Rove Healthcare City, Rove Dubai Marina, Rove City Centre, Rove At The Park, and Rove La Mer Beach. Kids who want to take their parents out for a delicious meal at The Daily can order their favourite meal from the main menu and treat mom or dad to a free dish of their choice from The Big Kids’ Menu.  

For those seeking a slightly extended adventure while school’s out, go straight to the heart of the action at Rove At The Park with an extra special room-stay deal. Simply head to www.rovehotels.com, make a booking for a stay before April 10, with prices starting from Dhs399, and get two tickets to a park of your choice, for one day, at Dubai Parks and Resorts.

Set price culinary journey

In collaboration with the Dubai Food Festival, BABA is offering up an exclusive set menu that will transport you to the bustling streets of Istanbul in just one bite. Running from March 25 to April 10, Dhs250 will bag you a sumptuous Ottoman meal served sharing-style. Start off the culinary journey with a selection of Turkish mezze, tuck into a choice of mains including sebze guvec (vegetable stew with marrow, eggplant, capsicum and onion in homemade tomato sauce topped with kashkavan cheese), and finish the meal off on a sweet note with a freshly-made baklava or traditional katmer dessert. The flavours of the Ottoman await for a fraction of the price. For bookings call 04 511 7373.
