Al Majlis Godolphin - Emirates Towers

If you're looking for a really wide range of menu for Iftar or Suhoor, as well as food that tastes good, and don't shelling out some bucks, then this is the place for you. 

This is actually a ballroom that has been converted to a restaurant
The Iftar is for AED 205 per person and the suhoor is a la carte. 

I was invited here for a suhoor event and I got to try out a wide variety of dishes. I am not aware of the price of each item in suhoor, but given the price of the Iftar buffet, you can make an approximate guess about the price range. 

This review is mainly to give you an idea about the variety and taste of the food offered here. 

They have about a dozen types of salads and cold starters like fattoush, moutabel, loubieh bi-zeit, shanklish, grilled eggplant, moudardara, chicken penne salad, wine leaves and more that were really fresh. 

Hot mezze like kibbeh, sambousek, fattayer etc. are there too. 

There are about half a dozen varieties of bread.

Some of the mains include beef stroganoff, wok fried calamari, oven baked salmon, eggplant moussaka, grilled chicken, lamb with okra, grilled vegetables, mashed potato, vegetable kadai, and various types of rice. And oh, there's the lamb ouzi too. 



I really liked the lamb with okra, eggplant moussaka and vegetable kadai. The grilled chicken was okay. The salmon was pretty good too. 





For those of you who like grills there are kebabs, lamb koftas, shish tawook, kofta bi laban.
The lamb koftas were really good and so was the kofta bi laban. 






The variety of drinks are also impressive. Jallab, rose water, qamar el din, orange juice, tamarind juice, lemon mint juice, laban, vimto. It is like there is something for everyone. 

If all of this was impressive, you will be really amazed by the variety of desserts. I cannot even name all of them that were there. Starting from our favourite - the kunafa, baklava, chocolate mousse, various types of cakes, various cupcakes, halwas. It definitely gave us a sugar rush. 
There's also a "date palm" there. 





I really liked the chocolate baklava a lot. The mousse had a very good consistency to it. 




There are a lot of dishes which are really nice, and there are some that are average. The variety is so much that you will be spoilt for choice.
