Dubai - STORY ROOFTOP LOUNGE LAUNCHES IN DUBAI

Story Rooftop Lounge has launched in Dubai, taking the bar scene back to basics with a real, down-to-earth offering combining stunning views of the city, exhilarating sounds and a delicious sharing menu that boasts an explosion of Peruvian flavours. Situated in the Media City Area behind Zayed University, Story Rooftop Lounge is open 7-days a week from 5pm--3am, making it the ideal sunset or after dark hangout. Appealing to those with a more rebellious approach to life, the venue is real, eclectic and aims to contradict the "bling bling" of Dubai. Story Rooftop Lounge is a vibrant nightspot for art, music and food lovers alike and is focused on pure quality throughout -- from its world-class chef and award-winning mixologists, through to the bespoke art throughout the venue, Funktion One sound system and the best local and international house DJs. The venue has an extensive rooftop lounge area that showcases sunset views of the Burj Al Arab and The Palm Jumeirah, which can be enjoyed while taking full advantage of its delicious Peruvian food, extensive drinks menu and variety of shisha. Moving indoors, unique illustrations by award-winning artist Fernando Elvira adorn the walls and bar bringing a colourful and alternative environment to the venue's interior. The flavourful Peruvian sharing menu showcases an eclectic mix of traditional and contemporary ingredients. Starting from AED 45, menu highlights include Anticucho de Conchos (scallops in olive oil, lemongrass, aji amarillo and coconut), Ceviche Nipon (snapper with leche de tigre, gari, yuzu, coriander and sesame oil), Spring Rolls de Lomo Saltado (beef tenderloin, soy sauce, red onion, vinegar and coriander rolled and fried) and Ensalada de Quinoa (avocado, lemongrass, olive oil, hummus, lime, cheese and quinoa salad). For those with a sweet tooth, Keke de Yuca con Sorbete de Maracuya (cassava cake with passion fruit sorbet, cinnamon and star anise syrup) and Milhojas de Chocolate Crocante (chocolate tulips with pistachio cream and praline) will not disappoint.
