For a weekend brunch that feels like a breath of fresh air, The Beam<\/a> is your perfect hideaway. Tucked within Le Royal Meridien’s lush gardens, this European-inspired bistro swaps Dubai\u2019s glitz for understated elegance, where natural light floods through expansive windows and the menu lets seasonal flavours shine. Helmed by Chef Nick Alvis, the kitchen cooks up unpretentious yet sumptous dishes \u2013 think whipped salt cod with garden herbs, truffle-braised beef cheek, skillet-baked flatbreads, and the most incredible selection of fresh seafood \u2013 all made with responsibly sourced ingredients. Settle into the navy-and-white haven or linger over a glass of wine at the striking wooden bar or on the terrace. Exactly how a weekend brunch should be.<\/p>\n
