Crumble, a new urban cafe and bistro, is now open in downtown Dubai. The home-grown concept focuses on fresh, healthy food — including 100 per cent organic, fair-trade speciality coffee — in a relaxed setting. While soups, sandwiches and salads are a mainstay of the menu, there are also heartier mains for guests who want a little more. On the menu: the super bowl salad with red quinoa, kale, pomegranate, walnuts, dates and jalapeño vinaigrette; grilled baby chicken with sweet potato mash and grilled vegetables; prawn tacos with mango salsa, avocado and sour cream; and fresh cod served with a ragout of chickpeas, white kidney beans and cauliflower. Bigger bites include the Wagyu burger; braised lamb shank; and pulled beef sandwich. During breakfast, the cafe offers signature items such as coconut quinoa porridge and skillet-baked eggs.
The two-level cafe also boasts a fenced children’s play area upstairs with plenty of toys to keep little ones entertained. Crumble’s managing director Moustafa Moustafa says: “I really wanted to create a neighbourhood cafe where people can eat many times a week, whether it’s for a business meeting, breakfast, or a catch up with friends. Our healthy food options and relaxed atmosphere make it the perfect getaway from the busy city life.”
Crumble is on Sheikh Zayed Road next to the Sofitel Dubai Downtown Hotel. It is open daily from 7:30am to 10pm. For more information, call 04 448 9061 or visit www.facebook.com/crumble.uae
