A dear friend of ours was back in town and I started hunting left right centre for a fun spot for a get together. We did the ladies night at the new Claw BBQ in the Palm many weeks ago, and have been hoping that they will launch a brunch. They didn’t, but hooray – […]

Have you ever brunched in Ras al Khaimah? We drove up to the Intercontinental Ras al Khaimah one weekend mid November, for a daycation – as well as to review Noho’s New York Brunch. Somewhere new, somewhere different. That’s, always exciting – isn’t it? 🙂 Here’s what to expect at the Noho’s New York Brunch.

Did you watch Beauty and the Beast, as a child? I did. I loved it. So I was probably more excited than my kids when I found out that the Family Brunch team had launched yet another one (they’re on a roll, aren’t they?) – called Jardin Rose Family Brunch, this time in Jumeirah Zabeel […]

A popular one with the Brits for obvious reasons is the family brunch at Bread Street Kitchen – Gordon Ramsey’s award-winning restaurant. We headed down the Palm towards Atlantis on a Saturday afternoon late October to review their family brunch, three little kids in tow. If you’ve always been planning to do this and wasn’t […]

What a crazy brunch it was – Oktoberfest at Lock, Stock and Barrel also known as LSB in JBR. We don’t ‘party’ much – so this was just absolutely nuts for us. It was also one of our friend’s birthday – so where else to go for a big, crazy and loud birthday do? LSB […]

Four Seasons Resort Dubai in Jumeirah Beach have relaunched their Saturday brunch in Suq, their family restaurant. We returned to the resort in September to review the brunch, now called the ‘Sensational Saturday Brunch.’ A bit cheesy I thought – it better be as ‘sensational’ as it is named to be, haha. Here’s what to […]

We are always happy to see another family brunch being launched in Dubai. I first found out about the FamBam brunch from a sponsored, probably targeted ad on instagram. Congratulations, you guys got the right demographic, and the right person 😉 I had seen press releases about Social Distrikt from their PR company so reached […]

Another one from The Family Brunch crew – here’s Sunday Roast at the Ritz, which we popped over one afternoon in June to review with the family. Having been to the Seaside Brunch and seen numerous videos on socials, we had an inkling as to what to expect, and was pretty excited for the kids. […]

I can see the musicians right now going Noooooooooo, don’t bring your kids to my gigs! C’mon, what’s wrong with little people? Other than their little fingers, wanting to climb up stages, wanting to press any buttons they see, pull down the mike stand. Not so bad right? Don’t worry, we can keep an eye […]

We drove up to Business Bay one Saturday to meet another family for brunch – this time to review Billy’s Brunch at Bai Bar. It was one of those weekends in March where we were sceptical what the weather was going to be like. It was going to be either hot and icky (like the […]

It was nice to return to Le Rose in the Address Fountain Views on a Saturday afternoon with friends. This time for brunch, aptly called ‘Le Brunch’. Is it just me but is everything french sounds just a little more posh? 😉 Here’s what to expect from the brunch at Le Rose.

Mezzerie has finally relaunched their Saturday brunch, after a very long hiatus. Surf and Turf brunch it’s called – and guess what, kids under the age of 10 eat free, with complimentary access to Coco’s Kids Club. We went over one Saturday to review the brunch with the little people – all excited to see […]

The last time we were at Li Brasil – we had the little people with us. Safe to say I was quite pleased to find out that Brunch Beleza at Li Brasil is strictly adults-only. A chance to relax and have some good lebanese and brazilian food, sip on cocktails and enjoy the view with […]

Have you been to the Green Planet? Over the cooler months, they have a brunch in their outdoor cafe. We brought the family over as part of an invitation to their Gender Reveal celebration for the very first sloth born in the UAE. Some may say that is absolutely ridiculous but c’mon, we are in […]

It was nice to return to Gal with the family, after a sneak peak of the venue in an event in the summer. With good weather in Dubai right now, we chose to sit outside in their terrace this time. Do not worry – every spot you choose, you will be overlooking the mammoth structure […]
