Named after the degree of 'lean' in Abu Dhabi's famous Capital Gate skyscraper, in which it's situated, this restaurant takes inspiration from the cookery cultures of the Mediterranean. Order up tiger prawns on a bed of spicy hummus with a preserved lemon foam and beef tenderloin with a pistachio-mustard crust then watch your dinner being cooked in the open kitchen.
