Clubhouse
A place that keeps up to its name where you can get some drinks, chill and be merry!
Journey:
We were invited by Jebel Ali Recreation Club to be part of their grand re-opening and to review one of the restaurants.
Rating: 7 Golden Nuggets
Ambiance:
The interiors are done in a fashion often seen in most clubs. The seating was comfy with sofas and round tables for bigger groups and lounge chairs to unwind and relax. There is also a corner known as the Ships Wheel at this counter, you can order your drinks and keep ’em coming! The wooden flooring and the dim lighting is a combination we liked.

Bite Board
1. Chicken Tikka Bites: Grilled chicken tenders with a mango dip. The chicken tasted average and was a bit too dry. We would have preferred another dip along with it maybe garlic mayo.
2. Nachos with cheese: A sizzler plate loaded with soft nachos and not so warm cheese, a whole lot of pesto sauce and cream cheese. We would have liked them if they were a bit crispier and the dips were served separately so that we could pick our own choices rather than a mix.
3. Fries: The presentation was well done in a can. The fries were crisp!
4. Burger: The chicken burger was a crispy fried fillet sandwiched with some lettuce and slice of tomatoes and dressed with mayo. The burger was a definite win as the patty was juicy and was cooked perfectly.
5. Paneer pakora: These tasted yummy along with the yoghurt dip given.
6. Margarita Pizza: we have had better ones before. It was missing the right amount of cheese.
7. Lemon Mint: It was an average drink with more ice and lemon making the drink too sour for our taste.
8. Strawberry Mojito: This was a better option but we have had better ones than this in comparison.
9. Sticky Toffee Pudding: This dessert had the right amount of sweetness to it. The best part being, we felt a tinge of lotus flavor as well. We liked how the texture was so soft to cut into and just melted in your mouth.
10. Brownie with Ice – cream: The brownie was gooey, loaded with chocolate chips and nuts that went really well with the ice-cream.
Service:
We were offered good service keeping in mind with the crowd of the opening. The staff was friendly and attentive to our needs.
Cash Outflow:
The prices seemed to be on par with the quantity of the food.
