radisson blu is tucked away in the beautiful sea shore of the al aqah beach, one of the finest beaches in the uae. it is a fun drive down through the mountains, along the shore and then the resort. right from the entrance to the greeting to the people who accompanied us to the restaurant, the experience was wonderful. specially in the weather it is getting beautiful and the restaurant flaunts a wide arrangement of buffet indoors and outdoors at fujairah’s most beautiful terrace. since we went on a friday afternoon, there was a friday buffet arranged.
breeze flaunts a beautiful seating arrangement with a huge seating stretching from one end to another, covering all different varieties of food. they had varieties ranging from international, seafood, meat cold cuts and hot, live cooking, salads, breakfast including cereals and others, arabic and my most favorite and something that shouldn’t missed – dessert. they had a smart carving on a watermelon which made me laugh – “yes i can”. “surely, challenge accepted” i said as i took my seat.
here are the must haves:
they also had salads in the most gorgeous form in fried cups which enhanced the presentation of the dishes. their cold soups made of mango, ginger, mint, carrots are something that you just cannot avoid. they had a gorgeous alcoholic vodka based brink with watermelon which had a unique blend and flavor. the salad section with thai beef salad is spicy and tangy, one of the best thai beef salads i have had. smoked salmon with asparagus has a melt in your mouth texture and will give you a delicious bend of asparagus mixed flavors. assorted cheese and the mozzarella and cherry tomato sticks were stunning and equally delicious. try this with their saffron based sauce and it will amaze you.
there also was veal sausage & turkey bacon, hassel back potatoes, chicken fricadels with pepper sauce, roast lamb with mint sauce, baked fish with saffron sauce, seafood paella rice, and the thing you should absolutely not miss is the chicken fricadels, baked fish with saffron sauce and the rice. i loved thevarietyof main options that were there to choose from.
the dessert surely had me dazzled. the widevarietyof treats for kids and adults alike is something i was looking forward to. i wanted to keep a big portion empty to swipe off the soufflé, the sorbet in the orange shell, dark chocolate mousse with plum compote, vanilla creme brule, chocolate brownie, fresh fruit and dark chocolate gateaux, debosh cake, cupcakes, lugaimat, layered honey cake, some amazing superstar cakes, and cookies which i couldn’t avoid eating. they had a candy floss cone which amused me both for the presentation and the taste.
there is absolutely nothing in the buffet that i could have missed, if i had the whole day, i would have taste everything on the menu. i am sure you are bound to get tired but the food won’t stop. thevarietyis very overwhelming and will make you drool at at every section. do not miss the chef’s pasta made to order the way you like it. the staff and service is taken care off and you will end up eating more than you have paid for. highly recommended.
