From Friday, 15th September to Sunday, 1st October, Hakkasan Dubai will transport you to the heart of the Mid-Autumn Festival with an exclusive menu curated by Executive Chef Andy Toh. Priced at AED 598, this culinary masterpiece showcases eight exquisite dishes that embody the essence of Chinese cuisine, culminating in a stunning mooncake dessert.

The sides are equally enchanting, with sautéed seasonal vegetables and wild fungus with truffle.
