I tried the buffet on Friday 21st. Only about 6 people there and whilst the selection of food was pretty restricted it was pleasant, but cold! Maybe still trying to sort out the bugs and get people in??

If I was brunching in that area, I would take a long hard look at myself and go somewhere else.

No. A couple in AD when I was ultra bored. Not really my thing.

As it happens, I know that it is massively popular and raking money in at the moment.

I was in there last week and I agree with Spugsy its rubbish! The design is poor, there is no room to swing a cat, too many table, slow service and that is not mentioning the fact that they let me and my mate (both white) and tried to charge my other 4 mates (all Asian). The managers excuse was that they get people who come in and nurse a pint. Thats fine but my 4 mates are all British Asian and professional p1ss artists.

Rock Bottoms in Dubai is what it is and is fine every 6 months or so but I will never go back to this place!
