FOUR SEASONS RESORT DUBAI AT JUMEIRAH IS DRESSED AND OBSESSED WITH ITS NEW AFTERNOON TEA SPECIAL

Four Seasons Resort Dubai at Jumeirah Beach celebrates International Women’s Day with the launch of its inspiring collaboration with Zeena Zaki, Iraqi haute couture fashion designer. This signature dining experience combines Executive Chef Gilles Arzur’s delicacies with the sophistication and creativity that is ZZ’s newest collection.

The classic afternoon tea finds its zest with Zeena Zaki’s new creations that aim to entertain the idea of a woman’s “inner child.” With more vibrant colours and touches of embroidery, the collection is not only in harmony with the decorative and luxurious space that is the Shai Salon but also with its vibrant assortment of sweets and savouries for guests to enjoy. Indulge in the tier towers of scones with date jam, lukaymat, saffron cakes or arancini and eggplant moussaka. The designer shares some of her favourite Iraqi-influenced dishes for this dining experience, adorned with embroidered napkins and signature ribbons in the open space. ZZ and Four Seasons Resort Dubai come together to create the city’s most fashionable tea.

The international fashion designer is known for her creation of gowns that embrace the female form and are designed to bring out confidence in women and fashion enthusiasts alike. Zeena Zaki launched her brand, Julea Domani, in 2003 in the UAE and is now showcased at major fashion events including Paris Fashion Week. Her brand is recognised and worn by celebrities around the world, including Khloe Kardashian, Eva Longoria and Tyra Banks. Her approach to design is a concoction of luxury, inspiration and creativity, something that is well aligned with the Four Seasons brand values. Zeena’s character is shown through her passion and love for fashion design. The elegant gowns and pieces she has been making since she was little have been designed and refined to the very last detail, and this is how she masters her craft.

Available from March 8, 2021, the Zeena Zaki Afternoon Tea will be served at Shai Salon daily from 2:00 to 11:00 pm. The experience is priced at AED 285 per person.
