Rodeo Drive: All-American Restaurant & Bar opening in Dubai this August
Set across six immersive zones, Rodeo Drive is part restaurant and part playground with enough edge to feel cool, and enough variety to suit pretty much every mood. The food: fire, flavour and Tex-Mex heat

At the centre of it all, is the grill pit.
Head Chef Walter Melo is behind the menu, so expect food with roots from Mexico and Texas. Think flame-grilled steaks, smoky briskets, Tex-Mex bites, and Cali-Mex plates with punch.
It's a pork-licensed kitchen, so expect some proper Southern-style BBQ, too. The entertainment: games, gigs and a Rodeo Bull

Rodeo Drive goes well beyond dinner and drinks. Expect live bands, DJs, beer pong, interactive darts, themed nights, and a full arcade packed with nostalgia. And then there's the bull-bucking, which is just waiting for you to test your balance (or your ego). For the kids: fun, safe, and screen-free
Rodeo Drive isn't just for the grown-ups. Kids aged one to 10 also get their own play zone, with wall-mounted games, crafts, Rodeo Drive-themed books and toys, and a full-time nanny on site. Under 21s are welcome in the restaurant area. The design: a wild mix of six zones

Designed by Hiren Ganatra, the space unfolds through six distinct zones. There's the Wild West Grill with leather booths and raw timber, a New York-inspired bar with smoked glass and glossed tile, a neon-drenched arcade, the theatrical stage, the cage-like bull riding arena, and a secret speakeasy-style Mancave hidden behind a bookshelf. It's eclectic without feeling chaotic, where every corner with its own vibe.
Location: Oaks Hotel, Ibn Battuta Gate, Dubai
Times: Weekdays: restaurant 2pm to 2am, bar 4pm to 3am; weekends: restaurant and bar 12pm to 3am

Hulk Hogan, Wrestling Icon and Pop Culture Phenomenon, Dies at 71
Terry Bollea, better known to the world as Hulk Hogan, passed away on Thursday at the age of 71, according to World Wrestling Entertainment (WWE). A cornerstone of professional wrestling's global rise, Hogan's magnetic personality and memorable in-ring presence helped transform WWE into a mainstream entertainment giant in the 1980s and '90s. WWE paid tribute, calling him 'one of pop culture's most recognizable figures' and extending condolences to his family and fans. According to authorities in Clearwater, Florida, Hogan suffered cardiac arrest at his home and was transported to Morton Plant Hospital, where he was pronounced dead. No foul play is suspected, and an investigation is ongoing. TMZ was first to break the news. Known for his signature phrases and charisma, Hogan was central to wrestling's golden era, forging unforgettable rivalries with the likes of André the Giant and Randy Savage. His shocking switch to villain status in the WCW era, particularly as 'Hollywood' Hogan and a leader of the New World Order (NWO), reshaped wrestling storylines and viewership for years. Despite his role in controversial moments like the infamous 'Fingerpoke of Doom,' Hogan's legacy as a transformative figure in wrestling history was already cemented. Hogan also crossed into mainstream fame through film appearances, a cartoon series, and merchandise. But his later years were marred by controversy—most notably a leaked tape containing racist remarks, which resulted in a major fallout with WWE and damaged his public image. Though he apologized, many wrestlers and fans remained critical. He returned to WWE years later in a limited role but never regained his former universal appeal. Most recently, Hogan was set to launch a new wrestling promotion called Real American Freestyle, aimed at spotlighting Olympic-style wrestling. His death comes just weeks before the league's first event. Tributes have poured in, including from political figures like Donald Trump and JD Vance, with whom Hogan had aligned in recent years. Known for his larger-than-life persona, Hulk Hogan leaves behind a mixed but undeniably powerful legacy in both sports entertainment and popular culture.
