Toast to the start of the weekend with Nonya's lively Saturday brunch!
Specialising in cuisine influenced by rich Asian flavours, particularly that of Singapore and Malaysia's, the Nonya restaurant at Taj Dubai is a welcome addition to the stacks of Pan-Asian dining spots in the emirate.
Once you reach the 44th floor of Taj Dubai, the views are immediately mesmerising. Set in a lively atmosphere and bold, sleek interiors, Nonya consistently offers a delicious time out, with a mouth-watering menu line-up proudly paying homage to Peranakan culture and cuisine.
During weekends, the restaurant hosts two exciting brunches - we had the pleasure of trying out the Nonya Saturday Brunch: three and a half hours where you're free to indulge in a Pan-Asian buffet paired with stylish drinks.
The Venue
Divided into indoor and outdoor seating areas, the restaurant is tastefully decorated and sophisticated. Dining at Nonya means joining a fashionable crowd as you enjoy exquisite drinks, while plates of fragrant Pan-Asian dishes pass by and entice you to place your orders.
As Nonya is located on Taj Dubai's 44th floor, the panoramic views of the JLT neighbourhood and city skyline are outstanding. With the UAE's winter weather making this the best time for alfresco dining, their outside terrace is the perfect place to sit and relax while enjoying the vibes set by their DJ playing a chill-out mix of classic soul, funk, and R&B.
The Food & Drinks
Nonya offers an addicting blend of traditional and modern Singaporean and Malaysian cuisine, and a choice of main courses while you sip your drinks - their packages range from non-alcoholic to house beverages, premium grape, and champagne.
We opted for the aromatic chicken curry with roti canai and potatoes, an indulgent baked laksa Chilean seabass, wok-fried Hakka vegetable noodles, and a delicious wine. Each dish was vibrant and perfectly spiced, resulting in a rich depth of flavour with every bite. Don't forget to save some room for dessert: their signature Nonya house cake.
