A stunning Latin American affair waits for you at Deseo. Located inside The Opus and the Me Dubai Hotel, Deseo has gilded accents to its interiors paired alonside light, wooden furniture and plenty of leafy plants to create an atmosphere of calming relaxation. This theme continues outside with its low-sofa seating at the poolside bar. Sit back and sip on cocktails that heavily feature tequila, mezcal and sugar can spirits while listening to deep house and Tulum style music or live performances that set a vibrant night scene.
On the menu, guests can expect to find an exciting example of the best South American foods with the chefs getting creative with playful twists that create a unique dining experience. Start off with a range of light, vegetarian tortillas or customise them with crab, truffle or caviar for a meaty alternative. The classic Mexican empanadas are a must-try with beef or mixed cheese options served alongside a spicy salsa. Next comes a selection of ceviche and South American style sashimi with interesting combinations such as salmon, pomegranate and orange sashimi which is sure to be popular among adventurous diners.
Main courses are served on beautiful ceramics that are shaped and decorated like the leafy plants that fill the restaurant. Guests will find a range of beautifully cooked meats and fish with an extensive list of sides to compliment the course. Try the crispy, golden fries, the vegetable rice or the crispy plaintain chips.
Dessert takes on a whole new meaning at Deseo; it is a theatrical showcase rather than a sweet treat. With a whole pineapple nestled within dry-ice, guests are treated to a smoking display. And the performances do not stop there - cocktails are served up in tiki-style glasses with extravagant garnishes. Deseo is the place for a lively, vibrant evening with dishes that will be difficult not to take photos of.
