Screw Avocado: Here Are Five Epic ‘Back To Basics’ Breakfasts In Dubai That You Need To Try

Avatar

We’re calling it; avocado toast has had its 15 minutes of fame.

For too long has the dainty breakfast reigned supreme; with too many spots all over town charging an arm and a leg for bread, eggs, avocado and little else.

We’re ready to go back to basics, back to the legendary Irish breakfast, (with a couple of epic adjustments) and you can try them all at McGettigan’s JBR, Hilton Dubai Jumeirah. 

Fridays and Saturdays from 10am, here’s what’s in store…

5. The McGettigan’s full Irish breakfast package

If there’s one thing the Irish do well, (apart from pouring a perfect pint of the black stuff) it’s the famous Irish breakfast… And McGettigan’s have it down to a T.

This comes with eggs any style, sausage, back bacon, black and white pudding, overnight tomato, button mushrooms, hash browns and baked beans, and either tea or coffee.

Wear stretchy pants for this one…

How much? The small breakfast costs AED69

Or go large with the SOS breakfast special for AED100 (This includes one house beverage)

Available between 10am and 3pm

4. A pulled beef benedict you won’t find anywhere else

This is a breakfast you won’t find on other menus, so trust us; it’s worth a try. It comes with sourdough, baby spinach and hollandaise sauce and of course, deliciously tender pulled beef.

How much? AED51

3. Poached eggs benedict with a twist

This is traditional eggs benedict with an Irish twist. It comes served on the usual bun, with a huge dollop of hollandaise sauce, wafer ham, poached egg how you like it and a beautifully crunchy-on-the-outside hash brown to top it off.

How much? AED38

2. This spiced apple French toast is the stuff of dreams

This is French toast live you’ve NEVER seen it before. The bread is first soaked in eggs and milk before it’s fried off to a beautiful brown colour, topped with streaky bacon, chili labneh and lashings of tamarind caramel.

Wiping the keyboard at the thought of this one…

How much? AED48

1. The warm pancakes and banana salted caramel is a hug on a plate

Caramelised banana drizzled in a warm salted caramel sauce…despite the size of this stack, you won’t be sharing a bite, this one tastes even better than it sounds.

How much? AED51
