Basko is the new place to see and to be seen in Dubai.
Basko is carving a reputation on the scene as an Instagrammable hotspot thanks to its creative dishes, beautiful people and achingly stylish interiors. With its location on the ground floor of the beautiful Opus by Zaha Hadid, the Basko brunch offers stunning Downtown Dubai views, chic retro interiors, a lovingly curated grape and cocktail list and a world-class menu from Yousseff Akiki.
At brunch, the seamless service brings a choice of starters and mains from the kitchen with an upbeat flair. Diners can choose from an array of brunch classics for starters, including salmon avocado with poached eggs. For those looking to start light, the shrimp carpaccio will be a hit too. When it comes to the mains, the selection of classic Mediterranean twists includes the wonderfully creamy saffron cecina spaghetti, while meat seekers can try the succulent braised beef cheeks. In addition, a choice of sides are available to complement all the main course options.
While revellers enjoy a Basko Bloody Maria, Spritz or grape options, a DJ amplifies the brunch to keep the tempo high. For a treat, an oyster bar on the terrace is the perfect complement to a glass of crisp white or bubbles.
The delightful lemon tarte, rose cookie and Basko cake close the epicurean experience at the Basko Brunch. Weekends at Basko offer a great way to experience the Mediterranean Retro experience.
The Basko Brunch is available on Saturdays and Sundays, from 12pm to 4pm. Prices from AED 390 (soft beverages), AED 650 (house beverages) and AED 795 (bubbly).
