Sharaf Group launches ‘Chill Out’, Middle
East’s first-ever ice lounge in Dubai

Sharaf Group unveiled recently the Middle East's first ever ice lounge - Chillout, at the Times Square Center, Sheikh Zayed Road.

Chillout is a unique concept - entirely made of ice wherein you step into a sub-zero environment with the walls, tables, chairs and even your own personal glass with a cool mocktail made out of ice. Chillout will be the first Ice Lounge in the world serving a selection of cold sandwiches and salads apart from a range of beverages such as Asian Mount Everest, Canadian MT Logan, The Chillout Mix, Lawrence of Arabia amongst others.

On the occasion, commented Mr. Ibrahim Sharaf, Chairman - Sharaf Group, 'There are a very few ice lounges in the world, that too mainly at places with cold climate. So, the idea of building an ice lounge in Dubai was not only intriguing but also challenging. It was a fantastic vision and I am very delighted that today we have successfully been able to turn our dream into reality. It was a great challenge, a technological landmark and it gives me immense pleasure that Sharaf Group has pioneered this idea.'
