The Dubai Brunch Scene Has Got A Different Style This Season
For many years in Dubai, brunches were brunches. They were a big food a drink party during the day. The place you celebrated your birthday with a group of friends, or where you brought visitors and family. There were a somewhat affordable way to have a good time, as opposed to purchasing individual expensive drinks on a night out.
You could list the main ones on two hands…
Al Qasr, Bubbalicious, Saffron, Mina Salam on one hand, then party ones Yalumna, Warehouse etc. There were many best brunches lists but they all seemed same same.Â
About a year ago, there was a shift.Â
The high end restaurants started doing Brunches to get the crowds in. Novikov, Jean George, Gaucho etc. These were a different kind of brunch. More of a all you can eat a drink, seated long lunch with live music.
