Brasserie Flo to open on National Day



The French eatery Brasserie Flo will open on National Day at Venetian Village, located on the grounds of the Ritz-Carlton Abu Dhabi.

Brasserie Flo is a classic French restaurant started in 1968 by Alsatian chef Jean Paul Bucher. It now has locations throughout Paris, and in Barcelona, Brussels, Amsterdam, Strasbourg, Lisbon, Luxembourg, Eindhoven and Beijing.

A team of chefs at Brasserie Flo’s newest location in Abu Dhabi will be led by French chef Sebastien Pinson who has previously cooked in South America, the Caribbean, the United States and Europe. The menu will feature fish flown in from France and dishes such as French onion soup, beef tartare and beef bourguignon (also known as beef Burgundy). Classic French desserts will include profiteroles and crepes Suzette.

From Tuesday onward, Brasserie Flo will be open daily from 6:30pm to 11pm. For reservations, call 02 404 1931.

Tips for entertaining with ease

·         Set the table the night before. It’s a small job but it will make you feel more organised once done.

·         As the host, your mood sets the tone. If people arrive to find you red-faced and harried, they’re not going to relax until you do. Take a deep breath and try to exude calm energy.

·         Guests tend to turn up thirsty. Fill a big jug with iced water and lemon or lime slices and encourage people to help themselves.

·         Have some background music on to help create a bit of ambience and fill any initial lulls in conversations.

·         The meal certainly doesn’t need to be ready the moment your guests step through the door, but if there’s a nibble or two that can be passed around it will ward off hunger pangs and buy you a bit more time in the kitchen.

·         You absolutely don’t have to make every element of the brunch from scratch. Take inspiration from our ideas for ready-made extras and by all means pick up a store-bought dessert.
