It's not a secret that, whilst we don't consider ourselves fanatics, at Simply Doozy we like to eat healthy foods whenever we can.
A few months ago we took you to Sao Paulo in Brasil for a tour of delicious healthy eating, and today we are taking you to another great place where good food is king. This time we are in Dubai, at Ultra Brasserie, where you can enjoy wholesome super food that satisfies your palate and heart.

Step Inside Ultra Brasserie
Ultra Brasserie boasts two locations in Dubai, we visited the one at the Marina Plaza in Dubai Marina. The ambiance is modern with almost a Scandinavian feel and plenty of natural light energizes the space. There is an option to sit inside, perfect for the hotter months, or have one of the tables on the terrace to enjoy the cooler temperatures in the winter and water views of the marina.
There are separate areas, setting different moods, and on blackboards you can read feel-good quotes on food and eating. We also liked the background music which was nicely complementing the atmosphere with a mixture a popular songs executed in different versions like bossa nova.

Behind Ultra Brasserie's new scrumptious menu, there is Australian Head Chef Andrew Matthews who believes that food should feed all of the senses, a thought that we wholeheartedly agree with.
The new menu focuses on having more gluten free and vegan options, and provides an even better choice of healthy foods that look sumptuous and taste amazing. |
What's On Our Menu At Ultra Brasserie
We'd like to think that "choosing your drink sets the mood for the night", and that's just what we did when we picked our drinks! We commenced our superhero's dinner with a Heart Beet a tasty blend of beetroot, carrot, pear, apple, lemon and ginger! The other super drink was the Pumpkin and Ginger Smoothie, rich with pumpkin, low fat yogurt, organic maple syrup, green apple, ginger and cinnamon! If you have a sweet tooth as we do, then this is a winning ticket!!
Delicious organic juices at Ultra Brasserie
Food wise, we started with some healthy goodness seen that Ultra Brasserie offers an All-day Breakfast option, which we really appreciated, because we love breakfast and the options on the menu were truly inviting! So, even though it was dinner time, we started our meal with two breakfast items, and continued with a selection of main courses, finishing off with dessert.

Our Thoughts On The New Menu At Ultra Brasserie
|
|
Our favorite items were without a doubt the breakfast ones. Absolutely mind blowing!! Both were an explosion of flavors and textures; we loved in particular the creamy mixture of avocado and ricotta cheese on one, and the sweetness of pumpkin and sweet potatoes on the other! |
|
Among the main courses both burgers were tasty, in the beef burger we liked the saltiness of the halloumi blending with the grilled juiciness of the zucchini and the burger itself, a bursting dance of flavors indeed! We also enjoyed the Superfood Bowl: ingredients feeding your brain and body with a punch of goodness that would make The Hulk proud!! |

A wonderful meal could not be complete without dessert, and Ultra Brasserie delivered brownie points (excuse the pun), until the very end with these super yummy gluten free desserts. They went down like a treat!!
We couldn't believe we reached the end of such a fantastic dinner having satisfied our hearts and souls in the healthiest of ways! Ultra Brasserie is living proof that good food is the way forward for a healthy nutrition that doesn't compromise taste. |
