Modern Japanese and a hidden speakeasy on a DIFC rooftop.
Clap is a modern Japanese restaurant, bar and terrace on the upper floors of Gate Village Building 11 in DIFC, billed as the largest rooftop dining room in the district. The terrace wraps the skyline with a clear line to the Burj Khalifa, which makes the sunset and evening hours the ones to book.
