4 New Brunches To Try

Where?

Katsuya by Starck, Jumeirah Al Naseem Hotel

When? The Katsuya Big Brunch takes place every Friday from 12pm to 4pm

What’s it like? Located at a beachfront location within Jumeirah Al Naseem, Katsuya by Starck is a modern Japanese restaurant boasting artistic flair due to design legend, Philippe Starck’s sleek and sultry interiors. Led by master sushi chef Katsuya Uechi, Kastsuya’s offering dedicates itself to the marriage of Japanese and Californian cuisines – Japanese food, inspired by the American palate that appeals worldwide.

As of March 1, the venue launched its first-ever brunch, AKA the ‘Katsuya Big Brunch’. I’m not entirely sure why it’s labelled ‘big’ as such, as I found the brunch to be quite a nice intimate experience, there was however a lot of food to go around.

From a birds-eye view, we’re told that Katsuya is designed to look like a bento box, if the roof was removed. Inside, the venue is divided into several different rooms, each of which have slightly different vibes. There’s also an outside terrace, which offers beautiful views over Burj Al Arab.

We were seated in a cosy corner and super comfortable booth in the main dining room as you enter the venue, which houses a central sushi bar. The music is upbeat but not overbearing, and increases slightly as the afternoon goes on.
