Want to tuck into a delicious Spanish Sunday brunch in Dubai? You're in the right place.
The award-winning El Sur, situated in The Westin Dubai Mina Seyahi, is a favourite of many for their fantastically fresh renditions of Spanish delicacies, chic artwork and interiors, and inviting ambiance.
This time, the ExpatWoman team had the chance to try their Sunday Siesta Brunch, where we explored their stylish venue and culinary showstoppers that capture the flavours the region is best loved for.
The Venue
When we entered the restaurant, El Sur welcomed us into a slice of Spanish dining life teleported to Dubai. It has the genuine feel of a mellow but sophisticated Spanish hangout - all earthy décor and gorgeous interiors.
Guests are treated to al fresco dining at a lovely terrace overlooking the luxury hotel's pools and glimpses of the Arabian sea. Or, dine indoors and enjoy wonderful live music with a solo singer.


The Food
El Sur's Sunday Siesta Brunch is ideal for both relaxed dining and special occasions with friends, family, or for business lunches.
The brunch comes in three different selections; a wide selection of cold and hot starters, followed by a sharing platter inclusive of croquettes, crispy calamari, stuffed olives, and a delicious gazpacho. Paella fans, prepare to cheer loudly - their main course was an authentic Spanish paella which was all-round flawless.
We ended our delightful afternoon with freshly made churros and a rich chocolate dipping sauce along with a café con leche.

The Details
El Sur is a hidden treasure in Dubai that's not to be missed out on. I would highly recommend this no-fuss Sunday afternoon brunch with its delicious food and relaxing ambiance. It's an absolute must for anyone who enjoys Spanish cuisine.
