Experience some Bastille Day brilliance at Fouquet’s Abu Dhabi
Get ready to raise your glasses and say ‘Vive la France!’, because the Fouquet’s Abu Dhabi is lighting up Saadiyat Island this weekend.
For the very first time, the glittering French gem nestled beneath the Louvre Abu Dhabi’s majestic dome, Fouquet’s Abu Dhabi, is toasting Bastille Day in unforgettable style. And trust us, this is no ordinary Saturday brunch.
On 12 July from 1pm to 4pm, prepare to be swept away in a sea of French flair, where elegance meets indulgence and every bite feels like a getaway to Paris.
Step into a world of ruby-red velvet, sparkling chandeliers, and bubbly that never stops flowing.
The experience kicks off with a curated four-course culinary journey featuring iconic French delights.
Think buttery escargot straight from Burgundy, foie gras paired with fig chutney, and Wagyu carpaccio so tender it practically vanishes on your tongue.
Main dishes are served sharing-style, because nothing bonds brunch-goers like fighting (gently, of course) over the last bite of grilled rib-eye with golden fries.
Don’t miss the morel mushroom vol-au-vent, it’s basically a love letter to French comfort food.
And of course, there’s fromage galore. The cheese board is both a masterpiece and a challenge: how much Brie can one eat in polite company?
