Dubai
Weekend Brunch at the Coffeeshop Company
Friday morning tradition in our household is synonymous to movies and a lazy English breakfast in bed. The idea roots from recuperating from the busyness of the week. Today, we did it differently. A walk on the beach under an increasing April heat along The Walk @ JBR, also known as Jumeirah Beach Residence was a treat. There were 45 minutes to an hour queue outside restaurants offering Friday brunches while some spots were closed with traces of late-night service on a Thursday night. We were initially planning to fill our tummies at Ihop but decided to try the closest coffee shop that we spotted.
The Coffeeshop Company with a tagline "A Home in Vienna" proved to be a cozy spot right at the corner across Reel Cinema. Child friendly with al fresco seating, there were mostly two-seater tables that could be put together when arriving in a group. The servers were polite and efficient. It has a warm interior decor that makes you want to snuggle in and spend hours chatting with friends there.

It is an Austrian family enterprise known to be a modern interpretation of the Viennese cafe with Espresso and Coffee to Go as their specialties. For a coffee person, I will definitely come back to try first hand their selection of fresh coffee beans after the pregnancy.
English Breakfast at AED 35 |
Their English breakfast was okay, nothing extraordinary, but their sausages tasted really good. Since it's Dubai, there's definitely no pork. There was a selection of pastries and macarons at AED 7 per piece.
Decaf Americano / Pancakes |
Refreshing iced fruit tea |
What impressed us the most was their Scharf Fruit Tea. It's something that I will come back repeatedly for.
Do you have a Coffeeshop Company available near you?
Have a lovely weekend!
Love & light,
Arni

I am quite vulnerable nowadays. I see a picture of food and I find myself wanting. Now I want pancakes. Those look thick. So you are pregnant? Congrats!

ReplyDeleteThose are probably the most perfectly round pancakes I have ever seen!
ReplyDeleteAhhh those cafes in Vienna, I think I could sit and lounge around in those all day (which may have been the point). This little spot looks so cute
ReplyDeleteI've recently returned from Dubai and I was just catching up on your posts and spotted this one. I really like this area of Dubai even better with The Beach. We haven't tried this coffee shop yet. The tea looks delicious too.
