If you’re looking for a really special private dining experience in Dubai, Brunch & Cake Al Wasl certainly fits the bill. You see, private dining here means you won’t actually be eating in the restaurant, instead you’ll find your exclusive table outside. Fear not though, you won’t be exposed to the elements as here you’ll find private dining domes that look like little see-through igloos and come complete with air conditioning to keep things cool in the heat, plus comfortable soft furnishings and lush foliage via potted plants.
These little domes prove the perfect place to enjoy a catch up with friends, celebrate a birthday or host a romantic dinner. In fact, they’d even make a pretty impressive place to take out-of-town colleagues and clients for a bit of fun if you’re looking for something more informal than the usual fine dining fixes that are the go-to alternatives in the city’s glamorous hotels.
The pods can be set up in various ways, depending on your party size. The smaller fits eight guests around a dining table, while the larger can accommodate more people or even smaller groups round several tables.
Whatever kind of party you’re looking to put on, the friendly team will be able to assist in making sure you have the perfect menu. You might kick off with cocktails and sharing plates like salt and pepper squid or croquetas before moving onto mains of generous plates of pizzas and pastas, or juicy burgers and stacked sandwiches. Make sure to leave room for the sweets here, they’re the star of the show. Think layered up red velvet cakes and beautifully decorated eclairs, for instance.
The Brunch & Cake brand was started in Barcelona, and this site in Dubai was the first outside of Spain – a huge flagship and now the bakery that supplies all the other Brunch & Cake locations in the city.
