TR!BECA is the New York inspired lifestyle hotspot located in JA Ocean View at JBR. It is the first restaurant and bar in JBR to serve wholesome, organic food and beverage options in a lounge bar environment and their Big Apple Brunch aims to encompass all that Tribeca stands for with a diverse choice served in a traditional buffet style. In addition there are live cooking stations headed by award winning Chef Giovanni De Ambrosis.
What we ate
There were the breads, soups and salads, followed by an amazing whole cooked salmon, the grill serving burgers, hotdogs and more, pastas, and a roast plus the desserts. Brunches are generally associated with unhealthy binge eating and drinking, but Tribeca felt like it was a different pace.
Verdict
The ambience at Tribeca is relaxed, inviting and non-pretentious. The food was lovely, made even better by the fact that I felt rather virtuous eating organic!
Price
The Big Apple Brunch is every Friday, from 2pm to 6pm, priced at Dhs 349 with selected house beverages and cocktails or Dhs 199 with soft drinks.
