A new poolside barbecue brunch is launching in Dubai this weekend

See you by the pool…

Le Meridien Mina Seyahi’s new poolside brunch in Dubai combines three of our favourite things: seafood barbecues, free-flowing sips, and infinity pool dips. The Aqua Poolside Seafood Barbecue kicks off this Thursday and Friday night, offering an relaxed evening brunch with pool access.

For Dhs299 per person, you’ll get an all-you-can-eat seafood barbecue, unlimited drinks, and access to the Horizon infinity pool. The new evening brunch will take place every Thursday and Friday, from 7pm to 10pm.

In keeping with social distancing rules, places are limited, so be sure to bag your poolside perch in advance.

Aqua Poolside Seafood Barbecue, Horizon Pool Lounge, Le Meridien Mina Seyahi, Thu and Fri 7pm to 10pm. Dhs299. Tel: (0)4 399 4141. instagram.com/lemeridienminaseyahi
