These are MOJEH's picks of Valentine's Day dinners that will earn some serious brownie points

Just like a vintage grape, Valentine's Day celebrations are expected to improve with time. Dinner and a movie? That is so 10 years ago. Instead, opt for an ultra-luxurious dinner on a private pier extending out to the Arabian Gulf, or meals surrounded by aquariums filled with love note-wielding divers. (Both actual, bookable experiences in Dubai). These are MOJEH's picks of Valentine's Day dinners that will earn some serious brownie points.

Available from 12 - 14 February. Book now

The Nice Guy

Hailing from Los Angeles, The Nice Guy has become one of Dubai's hautest hangouts, and this Valentine's Day it is offering a curated menu of celebrity-loved favourites, with a twist.
