Friday brunch date

Waking up late on a Friday morning and lazily ambling to brunch has become a beloved Dubai tradition, but due to the recent lockdown the treasured pastime been put on hold.

However, with restrictions having lifted many restaurants and bars have reopened, including one of our absolute favourites – Solo Restaurant and Bar. The city hotspot is back doing what it does best – serving delightful Italian classics and giving us plenty of delightful images for our Instagram feed from its high-point at Raffles Dubai, and for the first time, they have added brunch…

From Friday, June 19 2020, you can grab hold of your bestie or family members to enjoy some flavourful delicacies at the family-friendly brunch, Solo Gusto Brunch. On the menu are sharing portions of absolutely everything from Italy’s diverse regions – antipasti, carpaccio, pasta, pizza and fritto misto to name just a few.

You can use the time to catch a breather while your kids are being taken care of and bask being in the glorious outdoors or opt to join your kids while they are rolling out pizzas, choosing their favourite toppings and baking it in Solo’s authentic Italian wood-fired oven.

The restaurant is also open every day of the week tempting you to feast on their freshly made bread, pasta, pizzas and other favourite mains such as spinach ravioli with black truffle, linguine Frutti di Mare, Pollo Alla Diavola before finishing your meal on a high with the Tortino al Cioccolato (chocolate fondant with caramel sauce).

Guests also can also have the option of booking the private dining area. The restaurant observes all the updated social distancing measures while providing a safe setting for the guests.
