Although I had a bad experience a year back at Rhodes Mezzanine for serving cold main courses for dinner, but that didn’t stop me from wanting to try Gary's afternoon tea.
Fortunately,
I was totally pleased; we were warmly welcomed, seated promptly in a nice table by the piano. Everything was perfect that afternoon, and food was SUPERB and plentiful!
Finger Sandwiches (Cucumber creme faiche, Quile's egg, Smoked salmon, Lemon chicken, and Roast beef)
Special savoury of the day (Cream cheese, onion and herb croque monsieur & Duck and cranberry pasties)
Roast beef cooked to perfection!
Cream cheese croque monsieur was so good!
Homemade Scones - wasn't my favorite
Red berry Eton mess - Yummy
Warm raspberry buttered crumpets - Nothing could be more British!
Cakes (Warm honey Dundee cakes, Chocolate muffins, Lemon & Bluberry cakes, and finally Victoria Sponge)
All cakes were perfectly baked
a special complementary treat - mini homemade creamy strawberry ice-cream cones
No, ice-cream wasn't the only treat - Thanks Rhodes for the generosity!
Oj Says: Definitely one of my fav afternoon
teas in Dubai, but be careful that’s plenty of food!
Food Rating: 9/10
Overall Experience: Happy, like REALLY HAPPY!

Oj, have you been to Gaucho in DIFC? im curious to know what you think of it :)
ReplyDeleteHi, I've been to Gaucho once when it first opened, ordered Empanadas (had better) & grilled squids (not that good) for starters, and filet steak for my main. Loved the filet the most. would rate food 7/10.. if you'r looking for a steakhouse i would totally recommend "Center Cut" at The Ritz DIFC, for a better Latin American restaurant i would recommend Toro Toro in Grosvenor House - hope this is helpful.
