Ramadan in Dubai, UAE is a very important time of the year and city gets decorated to celebrate the spirit of the holy Month of Ramadan. Several Hotels in Dubai offers Iftar Buffet during Ramadan and some of these Iftar Buffets are World's best.
Madinat Jumeirah is the largest 5-star resort of Emirates and comprises three boutique hotels. It includes Jumeriah Mina A’Salam, Jumeriah Al Qasr and Jumeriah Al Naseem.
The Jumeriah Al Naseem was a new extension so In Ramadan of 2018, we decided to have one of the Iftar dinners in one of the restaurants in Jumeirah Al Naseem.
During Ramadan, Almost all the restaurants of Madinat Jumeirah are reserved for Iftar. It’s highly recommended to make the booking in advance.
Explore Madinat Jumeriah:
The Madinat Jumeriah has an indoor Souq (Traditional Arabic market) where they have different shops selling traditional Arabic cultural stuff like Perfumes, Souvenirs, Kandura, Abaya, Shiela etc.
The Resort also has a Abra ride (Traditional Arabic wooden boat) which takes you around the resort through the Canal.
The Abra driver also showed us different bungalows which have been shot during different hollywood movies. The price of the Abra ride is AED 85 and you can buy the ticket on spot.
Being honest, the price is really high for the ride of 15-20 minutes. The Abra takes to the point from where you can see the beautiful view of Burj Al Arab.
Iftar Experience:
After exploring the resort, we went to the Restaurant called “The Palmery” in Madinat Jumeirah. The price of the Iftar Buffet was AED 225 per head. The restaurant has an amazing ambiance with indoor and outdoor sitting. As the weather was really hot, we sat indoor.
More UAE Food Blogs:
The staff was very friendly even the Chef personally visited us on our table to check our dietary requirements or preferences. The buffet had a variety of Cuisine starting from Arabic range to international cuisine.
We were totally in love with their starters and Desserts. They also have a live Grilled section which was slightly overcrowded and we had waited a bit to get the Grilled Chicken.
In the dessert section, they also have a small stall of Dondurma (traditional Turkish Ice-cream) where the waiter was teasing the guests by serving the ice cream on a stick and then taking it away and then giving the only waffle without Ice-cream. The kids were really amused by the acts of the waiter and enjoying it.
After having a wonderful Iftar dinner, we sat in the lobby of the hotel and enjoyed fresh strawberry Mojito. Each and everything is totally worth the price.
Ending Note:
Indeed it's one of the best Hotel and restaurant chain in Dubai and it's highly recommended to book your Iftar Buffet before arriving for Iftar dinner in the restaurant.
