Ah, Valentine’s Day – the one day of the year when love is in the air, roses cost a small fortune, and finding the perfect romantic dinner spot feels like a quest worthy of a Hollywood rom-com. Lucky for you, we’ve found the one. Meet Carine, the French-Mediterranean gem nestled in the Emirates Golf Club, where romance is served à la carte. Prepare yourself for an evening of swoon-worthy food, charming vibes, and enough deliciousness to make even Cupid jealous.
Starters That Say “Be Mine”
Kick things off with a dish that’s all heart – literally. The Carpaccio de Sériole et sauce vert is as elegant as it sounds (and tastes). Thin slices of fresh yellowtail paired with a zesty green salsa will have you whispering sweet nothings to your plate. It’s the kind of starter that says, “We’re in this for the long haul.”
Main Courses Worth Falling For
Now, let’s get to the main event – and boy, is it worth the hype. For seafood lovers, the Saumon grillé aux herbes de Provence is a dream come true. Imagine tender, perfectly grilled salmon infused with the fragrant charm of Provençal herbs and draped in a Mediterranean pepper sauce that’s so balanced, it could teach your relationship a thing or two.
Prefer your protein from the land? The Entrecôte grillée et piments de Padron is calling your name. This grilled rib-eye steak, paired with smoky, slightly spicy Padron peppers, is bold, flavorful, and totally shareable – although we can’t promise you’ll want to share.
Desserts to Seal the Deal
No Valentine’s Day dinner is complete without dessert, and Carine takes this very seriously. The Mousse au chocolat chaud et glace à l’orge – a warm Belgian chocolate mousse topped with velvety malt ice cream – is the edible equivalent of a love letter. Or, for something lighter and fruitier, the Cheesecake au fruit de la passion will sweep you off your feet with its tangy-sweet passion fruit glaze. Either way, your evening will end on the sweetest note possible.
Ambience as Charming as Your Date
It’s not just the food that’ll steal your heart. Overlooking the lush greens of the Emirates Golf Course, Carine’s cozy-yet-elegant vibe is perfect for whispering secrets, holding hands, and pretending you’re in a French love story. With its warm hospitality and intimate setting, this restaurant knows how to play Cupid better than most.
