akeboarding power up

by Neil Pillai

If you have ever wanted to try waterskiing, snowboarding or surfing then this might be your dream sport. Wakeboarding combines techniques from all three and is relatively quick to pick up. So what better way to spend an afternoon on the beach than with jets of sea spray foaming behind you as you carve up the bay.

A wakeboard looks a lot like a snowboard but is shorter and wider. It is also buoyant, that is, it can float. The sport is similar in its acrobatic elements, so you will get the same adrenaline fix as you would do on snow, but of course, it’s water based so you’ll have the thrill of seawater fizzing up around your feet as you cruise along.

ACTIVITIES Once you’re ready to go, remember to relax because the calmer you are the more your body will want to balance, making you the watersports pro that everyone will be admiring from the beach! You’ll be traveling at speeds of 18 – 24mph (multiply by 1.6 for kph), so it’s slightly slower than water skiing. The boat that pulls you is specialised and has a rope mounted tower above the water line. This enables the person riding the board to gain height for tricks without being limited by the cable.

Once you’ve mastered standing up and gliding along the bay with the Red Sea breeze in your hair, you can move onto some core skills. These will set your pulse racing, so are suitable for those looking for thrills. You can start with ‘carving’, this is a technique where you slice up the water in different directions. Or try a more challenging ‘ollie’. This is similar to the type of flip you would do on a skateboard.

As with many freestyle sports such as snowboarding and surfing, there is almost a separate language of terms to describe various tricks (Off-axis, Tantrum, Elephant, Whirlybird, Slob 360, etc). Professionals on large boards can jump 25 feet above the water. One of the most impressive moves in the sport is the ‘1080’, which involves executing three full 360 degree flips in the air. So if you pull this one off at Sharks Bay Beach you’ll be quite a local celebrity, the maneuver has only ever been caught once on camera in America!

This fledgling sport is rapidly growing in popularity, especially with young Sharmers. To have such a large proportion of competitors on the Egyptian team is testament to that. In general, wakeboarding is most popular with 1325 year olds, of both genders. There is a strong movement among the sport many enthusiasts have a dream to make it an Olympic Event, in view of the fact that it has increased in popularity, especially over the last 5 years.

So, if you love watersports and want to try something new or you’re an aspiring x-games nut, this could be just the ticket. If you’ve surfed, snowboarded or skateboarded, you’ll probably pick it up really quickly. Here in Sharm, courses are mainly taken in the harbor of Sharm el Maya, near Old Market, where the glassy still water is well suited to this kind of activity.

Not only is it fun but it also offers you a full body workout, it strengthens your arm and leg muscles, improves flexibility in the hands and feet, improves your reaction times and is great for relieving stress.

A great place for lessons is with Nader Salem who is based over at Terrazzina Beach, Sharm El Maya. He can guide beginners and is able to assist with any questions. Feel free to give Nader a call on +20 10 900 77380.

Alternatively, Try the Sharm Club website (www.sharm-club.com) it’s included in entertainments, under waterskiing and they’ll arrange transfers to and from your hotel.

BEACH

BARBECUE MAGIC

by Sarah Lewington

The Marriott Resort in Naama bay is one of Sharm’s classic hotels; it is opulent and welcoming. As soon as you arrive you feel like you will be in the hands of staff that will take care of you. It has just the right amount of grandeur to leave you impressed but not so much that you can’t relax. I felt happy to be there as I walked up towards the sweeping entrance, lined with trimmed lawns and neat hedgerows.

The hotel interior is classically luxurious, polished marble floors and elegant pillars create a grand lobby entrance. With the minimalist design of more recently built hotels, it’s a pleasure to experience the old-world ambience of the resort. A glinting Arabic coffee pot perches on a nearby bar, poised and ready for pouring, whilst guests checking in, can help themselves to an exotic looking hibiscus coloured juice at reception. Everything is at hand adding a welcoming touch on arrival.

MIX October 2015

The Beach BBQ Restaurant is a short walk from reception where you’ll glide along marbled floors, down steps, past the brightly lit aquamarine pool, a jewel framed by palm trees. You can also reach the restaurant from outside in just seven minutes from Naama Bay, alongside the beach promenade. This is one of my favourite walks in town, the path to the restaurant is softly lit, there are low rise hotels and shops on one side and the sea on the other. It feels more like a walk through a quiet Mediterranean seaside village, its relaxed atmosphere contradicts the buzzing epicenter of Naama Bay, with its brightly lit facades and booming bars.

The Beach BBQ restaurant which opens for food between 12pm-11pm, is tucked away at the other end of the promenade. It is a short walk across a low lit path fringed by green bushes and Egyptian flowers. The restaurant is filled with pretty marbled tables, comfortable cream and aquamarine chairs and sea blue placemats.

There is authentic live Arabic music, songs

by Egypt’s legendary singer, Om Kalthoum, are received with gasps of appreciation.

Egyptians adore her, as do her fans in neighboring Arabic countries. Her music is soaked up with glee by the audience.

by their talented chef, Mohamed Badwy.

Haitham, took me to meet Sabah, who is the hotels very own bread maker from Sinai. She silently works beside her oven and what comes out is something truly special. She makes the freshest Bedouin creations you will taste and has her own spot in the restaurant where she works.

I watched as she rolled the dough and placed it in a traditional dome shaped oven, flames danced around the flat circles and what appeared soon after were these magical puffs of bread. Sabah makes two types, one is the smaller type eaten at dinner and the other a larger circular Saj variety, which is made in the day and used to create the popular Egyptian shawarma wrap.

The bread was brought to the table along with six mezze starters. A colourful fattoush salad of fresh herbs, cubed tomatoes, cucumber, red onion and crispy fried bread, which soaked up the dressing and fresh juices.

Other variants of the recipe can include peppers, radishes, lettuce, chilli, mint, parsley, coriander,

You can catch the Arabic band on Friday, Sunday and Tuesdays or come and see Marwa perform on Saturday, Monday and Thursday.

Traditional Arabic folklore music is played every Wednesday. Alternatively, you can unwind and watch sports, whilst ordering food and drinks at the beach bar, which is positioned between the entertainment and restaurant. The Marriott has combined this so well, so neither intrudes on the other and sits perfectly together. Everything works seamlessly.

Haitham Serag, the restaurant manager, works tirelessly ensuring that his guests are happy.

The restaurant offers eight types of freshly caught fish which are all written up daily on a chalk board near the grill and cooked to order MIX October 2015

DINING I watched the Egyptian moon making silvery circles on the water as Haitham brought over the main course. This was grilled shish taouk, two perfectly cooked skewers of chicken and beef studded with sliced green and red pepper.

The dish came with some tasty koftas and two pieces of lamb which were charred and crusty on the outside and soft on the inside. The food sat on a mixture of sliced and shaved pieces of fresh grilled Egyptian vegetables. allspice, cinnamon and sumac. This salad was beautifully fresh and light.

The salad came with a bowl of moutabal, which translates to ‘seasons’ and is very similar to Egyptian baba ganoush. The smoky aubergine dip had flavours of tahina, garlic and was decorated with bright slices of pepper, fresh herbs and splashed with oil. This was scooped into pieces of Sabah’s fresh bread, along with a beautifully smooth humous. The dip was authentically swirled around the dish, dressed generously with a grassy light olive oil, leafy parsley and dusted with paprika.

The main meal was accompanied by a spiced, herb infused vegetable tagine which arrived in a deep earthenware dish decorated with a sprig of rosemary. The rich tomato sauce, had depth from a long cooking time which responded well to the sweet carrots and lightly cooked tomato, adding something light and fresh to the dish.

Just when I thought we were finished, Haitham appeared with dessert, a perfectly cooked Om Ali. This could be described as the Egyptian sister of English bread and butter pudding. Om Ali is a lighter and more fragrant version though, typically made with phyllo pastry, jewelled golden raisins, toasted almonds, coconut, milk and cream. The Marriott chef, added cinnamon, Haitham then brought three more starters, some which when combined with the creaminess of very crispy fried bread triangles and a bowl of the dish made it the tastiest thing I have tried in cheese sambouseks, which had a buttery rich quite a while! taste, with the lightest cheese filling inside. They The Executive Chef, Amgad El Nemr, designs all were perfect, almost like mini Arabic cheese the menus at the hotel; he is a creative asset to soufflés. These were generously dipped in the Marriott team offering some really unique moutabal, a dip I will be trying to make as soon flavours and carefully thought out dishes. He as I can get to my local fruit and vegetable store, passed by to check if the food was okay and if to buy up all their beautifully fresh aubergines! there were any questions, I just had compliments Next dish was the kobeba. A classical Middle for him. The Beach BBQ Restaurant is a great Eastern dish consisting of a filling of ground addition to the Marriott Resorts collection of beef in a crispy bulgur wheat jacket! These are restaurants, a highly recommended place to eat. addictive and you can easily eat a whole plate without realising (dipped in humous of course) as you watch the band play another classic song

by Om Kalthoum.

The restaurant is very relaxed but high end, it has a wooden canopy, which reminded me of the stilted wooden huts you might stay in whilst on holiday in a place like the Maldives. Like a tropical hideaway, the position is on the beach, where lights from town hit the sea creating shimmering red, orange and green zigzags on the water. Perfect for a romantic meal which the hotel can arrange for guests.

Starting his career 30 years ago, in his homeland in Turkey, Chef Ender finished University, where he studied culinary arts then continued for three years of training in Europe.

His long career has taken him to many exotic places like Libya, Kazakhstan and Iraq. Almost a year and a half ago, Chef Ender landed in Sharm El Sheikh, as executive chef for the elegant Rixos Hotel in Nabq.

With two main restaurants and 6 A La Carte venues, chef Ender has his hand busy, Especially now that two more outlets are due to open, a Turkish restaurant and a Teppenyaki joint. With a lot of experience in Arab countries, he says that he actually prefers the system in Egypt “I like that the staff care about their jobs, they feel that it’s a real job that they will do for life, I like that” A fan of Mediterranean cuisine, Chef Ender notes that when it comes to cooking he is always tempted to try exotic foreign items, it’s his hobby to search for new recipes and make them.

10 Years Little Buddha

& Counting ...

Congratulations to Little Buddha who are celebrating their 10 year anniversary this month. The Little Buddha concept was created in Paris by founder Raymond Visan, famous for the Barfly chain and soon to open Abu Dhabi branch. Their website gives a visual glimpse of what to expect; an ebony chandelier twinkles from the ceiling illuminating metallic mink coloured seats which are stylishly arranged against a rustic exposed brick wall. The owners of Buddha Bar’s new venture look set for success.

MIX October 2015

This flair for innovative design can be seen in Sharm’s Little Buddha, reflecting the groups’ eye for a stylish space. In the Sharm branch you will find crafted Asian objects, lacquered wooden interiors, Portuguese mosaics, golden fabrics and oriental statues. It could be a distant relative of the old Jim Thompson’s chain in London’s Kings Road, with its collection of Asian artifacts in a restaurant / bar setting.

There’s something exciting about a place that is decorated with objects from far away lands, you feel like you are in an art exhibition or museum, but with the addition of some great tasting cocktails to choose from. Little Buddha does some of the best in town and coupled with its surroundings, is the type of place where your senses will absorb everything the room has to offer. The owners’ vision for ambience and décor seem to be what makes the establishment so unique and special.

The chain has continued to grow giving the brand international appeal; it has branched out all over the world offering guests the ultimate electro-lounge experience. The resident DJ’s are famed for their creativity and ability to take ethnic percussions and electro beats to create unique music, bringing something special to Sharm’s entertainment scene.

To celebrate their 10 year Anniversary in Sharm, a three day schedule of events has been planned by the team. Starting on Thursday 29th October, DJ Ravin, who created the Buddha sound, will be playing a spectacular set, so be sure to join the atmosphere where global trends and world music will be showcased. On Friday 30th October, mixoligist Matthias Giroud will be creating some fabulous cocktails to mark the special anniversary occasion. Giroud is the Executive Bar Manager at Buddha Bar Paris and is famed for his incredible creations where he uses some innovative materials and ingredients to mix his drinks.

In our August issue, we covered his work and learnt how he uses infused honey, perfume oils, rose petals and items such as candied rock to make speciality cocktails. His recipes set him apart giving him a Michelin star chef quality, using the kind of skill and creativity you would expect to see at that level. So with gourmet cocktail in hand, you can look forward to a magical night.

The last evening of the celebration falls on Friday 31st October, where you will be treated to musical talent, Camilo Franko. He will set the tempo with some innovative house beats, rolled into a Halloween special which promises to be something quite extraordinary.

Experience the party of the month and the celebration of the year at Little Buddha, where three days of pure party hedonism are guaranteed.

A World OF ADVENTURE AT

GENENA CITY

by Sarah Lewington

Sharm El Sheikh is home to the Genena City Mall, a unique shopping experience packed with everything adults and kids need for a great day or evening out. If you want to pick up a fabulous outfit for a night out in Sharm, Genena has it covered, or if you’re looking for somewhere great for dinner, with the atmosphere of a live show then you will not be disappointed here.

Genena City Mall offers visitors great choice and puts a lot of detail into its activities schedule for kids. The centre has bowling facilities, a cinema, a billiard and games area, a section dedicated to crafts, electronic games and trampolining.

It even boasts an onsite ice rink, which offers public and family sessions, special events and a private figure skating school.

40

The centre has a fabulous café situated at the main entrance serving up some delicious looking cakes and other sweet treats. It is similar to Patisserie Valerie in the UK, offering visitors much deserved self-indulgence after a busy day exploring the centre. Parents can sit back and enjoy a break, whilst the kids fly past on rollerblades on the forecourt.

There is a bumper car section, where brightly painted bubble cars whiz around their own special area offering some serious fun. Neat and well presented shopping units are nearby, selling kids items such as shoes and clothes, so parents can also shop for their children in the same area. It really is all about the kids here!

Just a short walk around the corner is where you can find the cinema, which looks like a unique and exciting experience. It offers the latest 3D and 5D technology, which is similar to living a movie instead of watching it, all of this within the comfort of a fully reclining leather armchair! It is intense and fun and you are given a special pair of glasses to wear to add to the experience. They have a wide selection of adventures you can choose from so you can fly through valleys or experience sharks when you’re out shopping! The staff are more than happy to show you around and help you find a movie of your choice.

home to its very own King Tut Museum. Guided tours are available and are a great opportunity for families to learn about ancient Egypt.

The museum explores the ancient world of King Tutankhamun; the Egyptian boy Pharaoh of the 18th century dynasty, who’s tomb was unearthed in 1922. It showcases an exhibition of original copies of the items discovered in the boy King’s final resting place which is sponsored by the Egyptian Ministry of Tourism.

When you’re finished at the museum, kids can go on and join the fun at the party which is held every Friday, here they will be entertained by cartoon characters in costume, play games and for those who still have energy left to burn, can join in at the mini disco.

Genena City Mall offers kids so much variety, from high tech options to more hands on fun.

Lessons on how to make pizza are available from Sadiki Café. Here all the kids get together around a big table where they learn how to stretch dough, roll it out, add tomato sauce and toppings to make some exciting creations.

Parents are advised to bring a camera to capture their mini chef cooking up a storm!

MIX October 2015

Sharm Circus School is also based in the centre, offering a wide range of courses for those interested in the fine art of juggling, trapeze, aerial & silk hoop, ribbon dance and much more. Genena City really puts so much effort into keeping the kids happy, it’s hard to think of anywhere else that manages to combine so much variety under one roof. It is a unique and fun learning experience waiting to be discovered.
