Brunch
in Dubai is real institution and you can get your kids along to have a good time. Try out children’s menus and ice cream stations to face painters and bouncy castles, brunch doesn’t have to be an adult-only affair (unless you want to to be).
Visit Bab Al Shams for some brilliant family-friendly weekend feasts that offer plenty to keep the little ones happy. Bab Al Shams Desert Resort & Spa offers an al fresco brunch that’s ideal for the entire family. Embark on a culinary journey with five-star fare. Whether you would explore an Arabian culinary spectacle at Al Hadheerah or opt for the tantalising tandoori flavours of Masala, their collection of award-winning restaurants offers gourmet experiences for a wide range of palettes. The family-friendly spread takes place every Friday and Saturday from 13:00 to 16:00 and promises lots of fun activities to keep little ones entertained. 
The kids’ corner features all the usual favourites from mac ‘n’ cheese to burgers and hot dogs and ends with a cool selection of sweet treats including ice cream and cakes. For the grown-ups, there’s a barbecue, hearty pasta dishes and pizza, courtesy of the outlet’s various live cooking stations, while the crêpe bar dishes up a huge variety of topping flavours alongside churros, pastries and more. There are plenty of activities on offer for the little brunchers, but we reckon the camel and pony riding, will be the most popular option.
