Housed in Le Meridien Dubai Hotel & Conference Centre, Bounty Beets is a haven of organic, gluten-free and vegan food. The restaurant is focused on healthy eating and sustainability, with a few puns thrown into the menu for good measure. The palm tree-filled terrace is ideal for soaking up the sun while sipping on smoothies, while inside has a chic, bouije feel.
From the plant-based alchemy bar, you’ll find superfood smoothies like the adaptogenic mocha (espresso, raw cacao, maca and reishi) or the bowl of soul (turmeric, cardamom, ginger and cinnamon). If iced coffee is more your thing, try the ‘slothee coffee’, a vegan blend of cold brew, condensed coconut milk and coconut ice cream.
The puns get more and more frequent as the menu continues, so you’ll find creations like the ‘almond Schwarzenegger’ (almond butter, acai, banana, blueberry, oat milk) and the ‘berry good day’ (pea protein, avocado, date, beetroot powder, banana, strawberries, almond and coconut milk). After a big weekend, you might want a detox. In that case, Bounty Beets has just the thing. For a sharp hit of health, try the fire starter (ginger, turmeric, cayenne and lemon). For a more soothing sip, the anti-inflammatory potion is the way to go, a mix of ginger, turmeric, carrot juice, lemon juice, coconut water, cayenne and black pepper.
If, however, all this sounds a little too booze-free, not to worry. Bounty Beets also has a killer range of cocktails to try. The watermelon martini is a great option for sunny days, blending Grey Goose with honey and fresh watermelon. The heart beet, meanwhile, is a vibrant concoction of beetroot, Hendrick’s gin, honey and lemon juice. More familiar cocktails are also available, including bellinis, bloody Marys, passion fruit martinis and frose. Book a table to try all this goodness by selecting a time and group size on the right.
