Bounty Beets, a themed, casual-dining restaurant that sets one in the middle of a cherry blossom right in Le Meridien Dubai Hotel & Conference Centre, has whipped up a great deal for the ongoing Summer Restaurant Week, which kicked off on 12 August, a Friday.
On the spread is a three-course dinner menu for AED150 per person, the regular price of which could run to over AED200.
The selections are divine.
There are three choices for starters – “Caul Me Cheesy,” which is cauliflower-based pizza with mozzarella cheese, parmesan cheese and garlic oil; “Bounty Soup,” which is roasted pumpkin, carrot, maple, coconut milk and pumpkin seeds’ and “Wanna Poke?” – honey soy-marinated yellow fin tuna, sticky rice, edamame, seaweed with spicy aioli.
Mains is a choice of “Let’s Meat Up,” a meaty, medium-sized pizza with tomato, sesame, pepper, soy-marinated beef, scallion and chili flakes; “The Elle Woods,” marinated chickpeas, avocado, cucumber, onion, tomato, vegan mayo and bagel spread; and “Taquero Mucho,” three grilled, soft beef tacos in coleslaw, apple cilantro salsa and yogurt dressing.
Dessert is a choice between “Cake it Easy,” walnut cake in orange custard topped with an orange sorbet; or the “Snack Bar,” cashew cream, candied peanuts, vegan salted caramel and chocolate ganache.
The meal comes with a bottled water. Vegetarian options are available on request.
There is also a two-course lunch menu for AED95 with choices like “Hot Mess,” savoury slow cooked pulled chicken, corn, carrot, tomato, and jalapeño; “Don’t Kale My Vibe,” a mix of kale, beets, onion, avocado, pumpkin seeds, and herb dressing; or “Noods Bowl,” rice noodle salad with edamame, baby radish, red cabbage, peanut sauce with chicken – for starters.
