I've just stumbled upon the newest gem in Dubai's JBR area, and let me tell you, it's a culinary adventure you won't want to miss. Welcome to Charlie and Friends, where Levantine cuisine meets contemporary charm.
As soon as I stepped into this tropical oasis, I knew I was in for a treat. With pastel colors that put you at ease and a relaxed vibe that invites you to unwind, this place is an absolute haven. And the best part? The aroma of their fresh bakery treats is simply irresistible—no wonder their delicious goodies fly off the shelf!
Now, let's talk breakfast. I kicked off my morning with a Slovakian surprise called "Chleba Vo Vajci." Picture a brioche, fried to perfection in eggs, then topped off with mouthwatering salsa and Parmesan cheese. Trust me when I say it was surprisingly scrumptious.
I couldn't resist diving into the classic breakfast staple: Eggs Benedict. Charlie and Friends nailed it with their crispy baked croissant muffins, delectable smoked ham, and a hollandaise sauce that made my taste buds dance with joy. It truly hit the spot, and then some.
However, my heart (and stomach) belonged to the Croque Madame. Imagine a heavenly concoction of creamy Bechamel, luscious Gruyere cheese, and a sunny side up—all resting gracefully on top of a Shokupan. Oh, and let's not forget the sliced truffle, smoked ham, and a generous swipe of Dijon mustard. Breakfast heaven, my friends. Absolute breakfast heaven.
To sweeten the deal, I indulged in a pistachio and raspberry cake. It was the perfect ending to my breakfast adventure, and when paired with their aromatic coffee, it took me to cloud nine. Speaking of which, their coffee is made with fresh, high-quality beans that make every sip an exquisite delight. Trust me, you'll remember why good coffee is a must.
So, my fellow food lovers, mark my words: Charlie and Friends in JBR is a must-visit spot. With its unique blend of Levantine flavors, friendly service, and relaxing ambiance, it's the perfect place for a laid-back breakfast. You can bet I'll be returning soon for another delightful morning rendezvous. ????????️☕
