Brasserie Boulud has an art deco theme with a neutral colour palette, mirrored ceiling and modern chandeliers. The open kitchen offers guests a sensory experience from within the restaurant to watch the magic happen.
French Chef de Cuisine Nicolas Lemoyne was chosen by Boulud to run the Dubai kitchen, after years at the famed New York City restaurant, Daniel. The menu features ‘contemporary classics’ crafted with the finest French ingredients.
Traditional dishes include escargots, foie gras with orange, dry apricot and fig brioche as well as cocotte baked sea bream with saffron, fennel and tomato. Desserts range from vacherin, rhubarb and raspberry charlotte and a selection of French cheese.
