A new kind of cultural evening has arrived in Dubai as Ancora, the signature restaurant at InterContinental Residences Dubai Business Bay, unveils the Grand Atelier Masterclass. Launching this August, the experience invites couples to explore iconic artworks through beautifully crafted cocktails, combining storytelling, creativity and canal-side views in one unforgettable evening.
Designed as an immersive journey for two, the Grand Atelier Masterclass offers guests the chance to select up to five signature cocktails from a curated menu, with each drink inspired by a world-famous painting. Expect to sip your way through a line-up that’s as artistic as it is indulgent. Think Starry Night Spritz inspired by Vincent van Gogh, The Kiss Martini inspired by Gustav Klimt, Monet’s Garden with notes drawn from the iconic impressionist, and Frida’s Flame for a bold twist inspired by Frida Kahlo.
There’s also Dali’s Dream for those who love something surreal, The Birth of Venus for a light floral refresh, Picasso’s Palette that balances unexpected layers, and Matisse Muse that brings a lively burst of citrus and colour to the table. Each cocktail is served alongside a visual of the painting that inspired it, creating a story-led experience that fuses art appreciation with modern mixology. To take the memories home, guests will also receive mini framed artworks featuring the masterpieces explored during the evening.
