i don’t know how i missed reviewing this one. the review is from a visit in january.the last couple of times when i had seen the paul restaurant in various locations in various countries, it looked a bit too expensive types and i was not sure the food was the type i really wanted to have. there were just too many options in dubai etc. but this time, in a mall setting, paul was the most visible café and i was really dying to sit down and ease my feet along with a good cup of coffee after running around in circles in the mall.being greedy, as usual, i ordered too much – one café gourmand that came with 3 mini macarons and the roulade de fromage et dinde which was the turkey stuffed puff pastry with emmenthal and cheddar cheese, baby spinach, basil, sun-dried tomatoes. first camebreadrolls with olive oil, butter etc. i knew it would be too much, even so, i had some of it. by the time i had coffee and stuffed myself with the macarons (were good but not the best i have had) i did not have space for the puff pastry which was huge! it tasted great but a bit too buttery. i could feel the taste of cheese but more so the butter. it was tasty but very rich. i had to pack most of it and luckily it stayed good till i could have a better taste of it on an emptier stomach. overall good food and decent service at this outlet.
