Gormandizing is no sin especially when you have some of the world’s best food laid out all around you. Yes, we are talking about the FUN DINING Friday brunch at Crowne Plaza Hotel, Dubai. During our weekend jaunt to discover the best Friday brunch in town, we stopped by at Crowne Plaza Hotel. After touring the emirate and trying out a range of brunches from a variety of restaurants, we finally decided to select FUN DINING BRUNCH from Crowne Plaza hotel as the Best Friday Brunch in Dubai.
The Fun Dining brunch is held every Friday from 1.pm to 4.pm and features some of the best of food and beverage from 13 outlets in an extravagant food carnival of sorts, spread throughout the second floor of Crowne Plaza Hotel. The F&B outlets featured include Traders Vic, Wagamama, Harvesters, Al Fresco, Sakura, Al Tannour, The Western Steak House, Cappuccino’s, Al Dana, Chamas Churrascaria & Bar, Oscar’s Vine Society, The Café and Zinc.
Fun Dining Brunch is arguably one of the best brunches in Dubai offering an incredibly wide gamut of food and beverage choices and true to its name – fun in every sense of the word. The milieu is lively, entertaining, and extremely casual so you don’t have to worry about dressing up on Friday. The whole area looks like a mini carnival with food carts, live cooking stations, wine barrels, a mini Ferris wheel filled with marshmallows, a chocolate fountain and a whole lot of other intriguing stuff all around the venue. They also have a live band MOJO DUO performing at the venue which ensures that guests have a truly enjoyable weekend.
The place had so much to offer, we were confused where to start from. Luckily we ran into Ms. Kathrin Gnilka, the PR & Marketing Manager of Crowne Plaza Hotel– an amazing lady who went out of her way and guided us about the popular and must try dishes. After food, that’s one thing we simply love about Crowne Plaza Hotel – they always take great care of their guests and leave no stone un turned to make everyone feel completely at home.
