Lebanese outlet Café Blanc has opened in the Eastern Mangroves Hotel & Spa by Anantara, Abu Dhabi with an intimate indoor dining area and an outdoor shisha terrace which overlooks the mangroves.
"The beautiful new development in the Mangroves will offer Abu Dhabi a new dining destination. It seemed only natural that Café Blanc would locate in the new bustling scene. We have created a contemporary, relaxed dining experience where friends can gather for an informal coffee and eat food that they can share," said Café Blanc, Abu Dhabi operations manager Nabil el Hajj.
All tableware and accessories were designed exclusively for Café Blanc. The indoor area has an array of carved tables and intimate alcoves.
