Nineteen restaurant at the Address Montgomerie recently launched its new Italian Fish Market evening (or as head chef Marcello calls it – the ‘mercato del pesce’).

Each dish is priced per weight, and a complimentary drink is available upon arrival. The restaurant offers unrivalled views of the championship golf greens and fantastic outdoor seating (if its cool enough).
7pm-11pm, every Thursday. Fish priced per weight. For reservations, call +971 4 3631220 or email dine@emaar.ae
