In the heart of Dubai’s buzzing weekday rhythm, Gerbou offers a rare invitation: slow down, savour, and reconnect with the art of lunching well. Recently listed in the prestigious Michelin Guide Dubai, the contemporary Emirati-inspired restaurant has unveiled a Business Lunch menu that balances efficiency with indulgence, designed for those who appreciate flavour as much as productivity.
Served Monday to Friday from 12PM to 3PM, the AED 140 set menu pairs one starter and one main course with still or sparkling water. For an additional AED 20, dessert lovers can linger a little longer over something sweet. The offerings are a celebration of the UAE’s culinary heritage, interpreted through bold, modern expressions.
Starters set the tone with a spectrum of choice—light and refreshing options like Fattoush and Date Salad stand alongside the heartier Chicken Pickle Wrap and the richly textured Lamb Bayaldi, slow-cooked to perfection. Main courses continue this balance of comfort and sophistication: fragrant Chicken Machboos, aromatic Lamb Mansaf, delicately prepared Seabream Dhin Khaneen, and a wholesome Vegetable Salone with rice.
For those who believe lunch is incomplete without dessert, the menu delivers a final flourish. From the warm nostalgia of Date Cake to the playful indulgence of Canvas Karak and Biscuit Gelato, and the creamy allure of Mastika Ice Cream, each sweet offers its own moment of pause.
Whether hosting clients, catching up with colleagues, or carving out a moment of personal reprieve, Gerbou’s Business Lunch turns the midday break into a celebration of culture and craft—proof that even in the busiest of cities, tradition and modernity can share the same table.
