Ever since I arrived in Dubai, people have been telling me that I had to go to a brunch. I thought, awesome, I freaking love brunch! Little did I know that a Dubai brunch is practically a whole day event. Almost all of the hotels have brunches on Fridays. (Keep in mind that we work Sunday to Thursday here. (Awesome on Thursday.....not so awesome on Sunday :) ) Anyway, you have to prepay, reserve a table, and brunches can range anywhere from $50 to $200 and up. I did a $50 one, which was really delicious, and the engagement celebration for a teacher I work with.
Basically, girls are dressed to impress. We're talking going outtttt dresses, heels, etc. This is probably a good idea since most people go to Brunch at noon and stay out all night and well into the next morning. I'm not there yet, but I have no question about my abilities....
I added some pictures of the brunch and can only describe it as a freaking crazy night club with amazing food, all you can eat...and drink.....during daylight hours. It's a weird concept, but I dig it. I imagine it being somewhat similar to a UVA tailgate, hahaha.
People literally do this every weekend. I met a Marine who stopped me in my tracks, yelled "American!!!" (we aren't that rare here, but there are heckkkk of a lot more Brits around) and proceeded to tell me how he did this every single weekend...God bless America. I would liken it to going to a different fancy wedding reception every weekend, in your sexiest outfit, of course. F*U*N!
Here's to my first Dubai brunch....and many more to come!!
