Best things to do this month in Dubai

&nbsp;
&nbsp;
Introducing a defining turning point in Dubai&rsquo;s luxury dining and leisure scene, Vera Versilia arrives to celebrate L&rsquo;Arte di Vivere&mdash;the Italian &ldquo;Art of Living&rdquo;&mdash;bringing the elegance and vibrancy of Tuscany&rsquo;s Versilian Riviera in Grande Stile. Inspired by the coastal allure of Forte dei Marmi, Vera isn&rsquo;t just a restaurant but a lifestyle destination, blending Pietrasanta&rsquo;s artistic heritage, Carrara&rsquo;s iconic marble, and Forte dei Marmi&rsquo;s fashion-forward spirit into one seamless expression of Italian sophistication. Designed to transition effortlessly from sunlit lunches to refined evening dining, Vera captures the essence of seaside serenity in the heart of Dubai.
&nbsp;
Every detail of Vera Versilia Dubai tells a story - where marble gleams like seashells, sand-hued interiors evoke Tuscan shores, and curated art from Pietrasanta whispers of endless summers. At its culinary helm is Executive Chef&nbsp;Marco Garfagnini, a native of Versilia, who reimagines Tuscan tradition through contemporary finesse. From redefined seafood classics to handmade pastas crafted in the immersive Pasta Lab, Vera offers a soulful, coastal dining experience that embodies timeless Italian charm and modern Dubai glamour - in true Grande Stile.

<h2 style="line-height: 2;" data-start="0" data-end="848">Vera Versilia&rsquo;s menu is a poetic tribute to the culinary soul of Tuscany&rsquo;s coast, where every dish captures the spirit of la dolce vita. </h2>
&nbsp;
The dining journey begins with exquisite Crudo selections, from Calvisius Caviar served with delicate blinis to the showstopping Chef Seafood Tower&mdash;brimming with Sicilian red prawns, violet prawns, oysters, and langoustines. Signature creations like the Trenette di Pesce, featuring freshly made trenetta pasta and seafood, showcase the kitchen&rsquo;s mastery of texture and taste. Guests can also savour refined regional favourites such as Dentice Rosso, a seared red snapper with smoked beurre blanc and Royal caviar; Tortellini Versilia, filled with beef rag&ugrave; and Swiss chard; and Spaghetti alle Arselle, crafted in-house with cockles, garlic, and chilli&mdash;a true homage to the flavors of the Versilian Riviera.

<h2 style="line-height: 2;" data-start="850" data-end="1536">Complementing the cuisine is a bold and imaginative beverage program that mirrors the essence of Versilia&rsquo;s coastal towns. </h2>
&nbsp;
Each cocktail tells its own story, from the Viareggio&mdash;a vibrant mix of vodka, peachtree, passion fruit, and grenadine inspired by the seaside town&rsquo;s famous carnival&mdash;to the Barga, blending Hendrick&rsquo;s gin, cucumber, lemon, and spicy bitters to evoke Tuscany&rsquo;s mountain villages. The experience is elevated by a signature Vermouth trolley, offering a curated selection imported from Tuscany, alongside premium Vermentino wines. With every sip and bite, Vera Versilia invites guests to journey through Italy&rsquo;s most enchanting coastline&mdash;without ever leaving Dubai.
