Our 5 Favourite Veg-Friendly Dubai Brunches

Weekend brunches are an integral part of the local lifestyle in Dubai. Whether you're a food fanatic or you're only in it for the afternoon cocktails, we've all found ourselves taking on the endless buffet at least once. But for the non-meat-eaters amongst us, Friday brunches can actually be a pretty limited affair that often isn't worth the package price. So the team at Veggiebuzz have rounded up our top 5 veg-friendly brunches guaranteed to fill your plate with more than just salad leaves.

1. Weekend Brunch. Mint Leaf of London, DIFC 

   From the English capital to the emirates, Mint Leaf of London brings a contemporary take on Indian cuisine to Dubai. Their brunch package is available on both Friday and Saturdays - Dhs195 for non alcoholic and Dhs320 for the bubbly package. And then you select from a vegetarian or non-vegetarian menu, each providing a vast six-course experience with dishes brought directly to the table for the ultimate indulgence.

2. The Karma Karvery. Karma Cafe, Souk Al Bahar 

   Don't let the name put you off if you're looking for a brunch that guarantees decent vegetarian options! The award-winning Pan Asian restaurant Karma Cafe in Souk Al Baher may have a "karvery" theme, but veggies can order from an endless selection of wok, sushi, eggs, signature dishes and desserts for Dhs449 plus prosecco.

3. Saturdaze. 3in1, Vida Downtown Dubai 

   Putting a twist on the classic Friday brunch, this Saturday affair will only leave you energized for the week ahead. The a la carte menu features all of your favourite brunch items, from poached eggs and breakfast burritos to a sweet breakfast bake and brioche french toast. Yum! The coffee, tea and juice is free-flowing and brunchers are entitled to one classic brunch style cocktail - Bloody Mary anyone?

4. Un Brunch A La Marina. Bistro Des Arts, Dubai Marina 

   Brunch like you've just woken up in Paris with an endless supply of fresh juices, pastries, breads, cheeses and fruit from the buffet. Top it all off with a choice of breakfast egg dishes or something from the 'creperie' all whilst enjoying a strong coffee (or something even stronger).

5. El Carrito. Zoco, W HotelAy caramba! Dubai's trendiest new Mexican restaurant is putting on a brunch and it starts this month. For Dhs250, the emphasis is on sharing dishes brought to the table, and we can't wait to try it out! Mexican fare is always good to the veggies at the party!
