As our new year resolutions start to fall by the wayside, our thoughts return to brunching. The weather is perfect, there’s a whole new set of menus to enjoy, all we need to do is pick one.
Brunch (or drunch) destinations are easy to come by but one of our top picks this January is at Dusit Thani Abu Dhabi. Already a popular culinary destination for city dwellers and visiting UAE neighbours, this luxury hotel is offering a variety of exciting brunches (and drunches) for true dining enthusiasts who live for the weekend.
