When a host invites you to eat, you go with your good manners, an empty stomach, a spoon in your back pocket ‘just in case,’ your sharpened teeth, a heart full of gratitude and a sizable dose of thank you.
I went with everything except the spoon ‘cos they had beautiful sets of cutlery and now, I am on the last leg of the cycle. A sizable dose of thank you for the gracious surprise international buffet that we were treated to.
It was a delightful surprise to receive a nicely worded letter from the management of Ghaya Grand Hotel and Apartments here in Dubai, inviting a good number of friends and clients over for brunch, aka ‘free lunch.’
Who am I to look such a lovely gift Horse in the mouth? I love such lovely surprises and this Horse is quite handsome, I must say 🙂
The new Ghaya Grand Hotel is a beautiful and classy, 5 star hotel, located at the International Media Production Zone area in Dubai.
Without much ado, the brunch which was in their Fusion Restaurant was absolutely divine.
Excellent service, array of sumptuous dishes and a lovely ambiance in which to eat to your hearts content.
I must confess, I really, really tried not to over indulge, but with the assortment of all types of food beckoning to you, I did just a little bit above my stomachs budget, but I have no regrets 😉
Should you ever contemplate coming this way, or if you are heading here already, this is one hotel that you will appreciate staying in.
It was not a surprise to me, during my little chat with one of the Managers, to learn that they are 100% full capacity and this is just one year of their business operations.
This is definitely not a sponsored post, but a sizable dose of thank you to those who made my families weekend lovely in their special way.
A few of the photographs that I took.
To the staff and management of Ghaya Grand, we extend our appreciations and regards.

I get the feeling that the appetizer menu alone would put me in bankruptcy court ! 🙂
