Waxy's AED85, proper bacon and sausages, decent choice of roasts....


Oh and 5 drinks, keep so you can get hammered on 10 beers and stuff yourself with bacon sarnies all for the princely sum of AED170. From 12-6 (I think, i don't normally make it much past 4....)

Double Deckers is AED165 for 4 hours of "free" booze and a decent selection of food, it's OK, but I still prefer Waxy's where it also gets somewhat overrun by scantily clad and drunk young ladies after around 4pm.....

Nelson's has gone up to a massive Dhs 139!

12.30 to 4.00pm. Buffet and all you can drink. That includes spirits, a couple of wines, but the only beers are pints of Heineken or bottles of Amstel light.

Nelson's is in Tecom? (near the Millenium Hotel?) I think I drive right by there to go to the Crystal Bar at M. Might just have to stop in, if that is where it is!!!

That's the one. In the Media Rotana just after you turn into Tecom. It is a pub basically, but does pretty good fish & chips.

Are there any "late" brunches? Like ones that start at 3/4pm?

After beginning at midday, i'm usually in a cab home by 8. I'd like to stay out a bit later!!
