With 1,000 people Dubai's Long Table an insane brunch on steroids

Another Friday, another brunch. Ho-hum.

We feel your pain. So we’re joining 1,000 people in Downtown Dubai next weekend, where the city’s first Dubai Long Table inaugurates the Dubai Food Festival. The specially created three-course meal is aimed at families, couples, colleagues and friends.

Originally created as an alternative dining option in Germany, the long communal tables help form a large gathering allowing diners to enjoy a street party atmosphere complete with great conversation and complemented by Dubai’s most popular food. 

Set all along Mohammed Bin Rashid Boulevard, Downtown Dubai, the Dubai Long Table promises to be a unique, open-air, family-friendly dining experience, according to the organisers' handout.

Priced at Dh160 per person (you didn’t think it would be free?), a three-course family-friendly sharing menu has been created by chefs from The Palace Downtown Dubai, The Address Dubai Mall, The Address Dubai Marina, Vida Downtown Dubai and Manzil Downtown Dubai.
