THE STORY

The Ghafé name came to us naturally, in line with the parks mission statement of “fostering learning through play”. Our goal is to raise awareness on the UAE’s beloved national tree, the ghaf.

The ghaf, which goes by its scientific name Prosopis cineraria, also known as Shami or Khejri, was declared as the national tree in 2008 – due to its cultural, historical, and environmental significance. The ghaf tree tolerates harsh conditions and makes the land hospitable for those around it. There is a saying that goes thus: “A man can thrive, even during a famine, if he has a ghaf tree, a goat, and a camel. Together, these three will sustain him through the toughest of times and ensure his well-being."

THE CUISINE

The menu’s mix of authentic Middle Eastern cuisine, Mediterranean flavors, and International comfort food is hugely inspired by the cultural diversity of the UAE. Chef Rabih Othman has personally designed the menu based on his passion for food and knowledge of the region’s best dishes.

The a la carte menu offers a myriad of choices for all park visitors, ranging from healthy food options to homey comforting meals. Delicious group menus and buffets can also be arranged upon request.

The Ghafé Restaurant: Your culinary oasis is open daily. Sip and savor with our diverse menu, featuring delightful coffee pairings and a range of delectable meals from salads to pasta.
