Review: Les Elements Brunch at Sofitel Dubai Downtown

Experience the revitalised Les Elements Brunch, enhanced by the breathtaking scenery of the Burj Khalifa at the poolside setting of Sofitel Dubai Downtown. Perched on the fifth floor, this weekend affair presents an enticing selection of culinary offerings within a welcoming family-friendly atmosphere, complete with laid-back seating and opportunities for alfresco dining, inviting diners to enjoy the breeze and take in the verdant surroundings and sweeping cityscape views.

The highlights

Sofitel Dubai Downtown’s brunch buffet offers a concise yet comprehensive selection, catering to diverse preferences. From classics to hearty winter warmers, there’s something to satisfy every palate.

We began our escapade with a selection of refreshing cold appetisers. The seafood station impressed with its offerings of oysters and succulent shrimp, both bursting with freshness. Next, we explored the vibrant salad station, indulging in the classic Tabbouleh and other Arabic specialties including Hummus and Moutabal.

Moving on to the main course, the richly spiced Arabic mixed grill, featuring juicy kafta and flavourful shish taouk, was a true highlight. The marinated beef short ribs, accompanied by roasted potatoes and seasonal vegetables, presented a hearty option.

Beyond these standout dishes, the buffet boasts an impressive variety. Diners can choose from fiery Chicken 65, delectable cheese rolls, aromatic Rogan Josh, vegetable noodles, and sushi. In addition, a diverse array of baked breads complements both appetisers and main courses, enhancing the overall dining experience.

Finally, the dessert selection offers a variety of tempting options. We particularly enjoyed the creamy crème brulée, the exotic coconut basbousa, and the decadent orange chocolate mousse. However, the extensive dessert spread ensures diners find their own perfect sweet ending.
