Lebanese restaurant Al Falamanki launches a new brunch in Dubai



Al Falamanki, the latest Lebanese restaurant to open in Dubai, has just launched a Saturday brunch. The restaurant, a popular eatery in Beirut, opened in Dubai in June. Al Falamanki Dubai has a secluded outdoor terrace decked out with trees and potted plants, including plants potted in traditional Nido tins. The tins are vintage metal Nido condensed milk tins and evoke a sense of nostalgia.

The new brunch features an array of Al Falamanki’s signature dishes prepared at live cooking stations, Lebanese kaak bread, manakeesh on saj, beetroot tahini, eggs cooked over charcoal, foul medames and much more. Some of the restaurant’s signature dishes deliver classic tastes of Lebanon with a personal touch including ‘Khalil’s saj’ with thyme and a cheese mix made exclusively for Al Falamanki and ‘kbaibet in yogurt’ — fried kibbeh balls mixed with garlic, pine nuts and coriander.

Al Falamanki’s brunch launches December 3 and runs every Saturday from 11am to 2pm. Dh120 inclusive of select drinks. Al Falamanki is on Jumeirah Beach Road, opposite Four Seasons Resort. To book, call 800 325 262 654.
