Yes, I am aware that when you are attempting to lose weight you should never reward yourself with food.. BUT, this was my first two pounds lost and this is the ONLY reward that involves food... AND I was going to do it anyway...
My 24 karat gold flaked cappucino:
My chocolate on chocolate on chocolate cake, dusted in 24 karat gold.
They even have an ATM that dispenses gold. I loved the advertisement that said "Now the Easier Way to Get Your Gold".. And to think all this time I was going about it the hard way... Or in this case, not at all.
The huge dome ceiling above the lobby:
The entrance:
There is a contemporary art gallery inside the hotel, and I liked this one. Yes, those are all PEARLS!
So, this outing was a great day to reward myself on a small victory. If you are ever in Abu Dhabi, Emirates Palace is a "must see"!
