Get ready for an exciting flavour journey of Pan-Asian influences at the Mekong restaurant, located at the beautiful Palm Dubai resort. Delight your senses as you dine in a traditionally decorated eatery, surrounded by stunning views of the luxury resort.
The menu reads like a travel itinerary as you feast on regional delicacies from Thailand, China, and Vietnam. Start of the smorgasbord of a culinary feast with a range of innovative, delicious starters, such as the lemongrass squid salad or the gochujang and maple syrup chicken wings or go big on the dim sum – homemade and stuffed with a variety of meats, fish and vegetables. The options at the Mekong are plentiful and still high-quality – you’ll definitely want to share family-style to be able to try everything!
Moving on from the starters, the menu takes off with smashing Szechuan cod to deep fried whole sea bream and Massaman short ribs. The menu is divided into meat, fish, and vegetables – with a whole dedicated vegetarian menu for more plant-based punters. There are classic dishes, such as pad Thai to exciting rounds of stir fried pork belly with hot basil. Dining at the Mekong will take you on an inspiring flavour journey through several countries; the only thing you have to worry about it is bringing enough people to share with. Luckily the restaurant also solves that issue, with their signature sharing platters of delicacies from each country.
The interior is eye-catching and bright with eclectic pops of colour and influences from the Far East, all set within a sleek and sophisticated setting. The restaurant feels both chic and fun at the same time, as you can dine on elegant old-school rickshaws on the terrace, with views of palm trees and the brilliant blue sea. For more private affairs, you can also book the private dining room.
