The 80s Are Back, And So Is Love At The Permit Room With A Nostalgic Valentine Special Evening

Dig out your polka dots, grab your chunky hair accessories, and cue the Bollywood love songs—The Permit Room, known for innovative Indian eats featuring a chic rooftop bar and a cosy indoor space, is bringing back the 80s & 90s for a Valentine’s celebration like no other.

From February 7th to 14th, this Majestic City Retreat hotspot is turning up the nostalgia with retro décor, throwback tunes, and a special six-course sharing set menu at AED 225 per couple and AED 149 per person.

Expect Sindhi Tikki, Flaming Heart Seekh, and Chole Kulche Doughnuts to start, followed by old-school comfort food like 1947 Dal Makhani, Paneer Love Affair, and Berrylicious Pulao. And for the grand finale? A Velvet Kiss Tart or Sweet Serenade Samosa with Gulabari Rabri—because love should always be this sweet.

On February 14th, things get extra romantic with live duets, 90s love anthems, and a violinist under the stars at V’Desi Bar.

Fellas, channel your inner Dev Anand with a cap or sweater. Ladies, bring out the polka dots, fancy hairbands, and all the old-school glam—this is your chance to live out your retro Bollywood fantasy in the best way possible.
