Today I visited Belgian Cafe, a German-inspired restaurant in Abu Dhabi. While the restaurant is famous for its extensive beer selection, I opted to focus on their food offerings instead of the beverages.
The highlight of our meal was undoubtedly the “Pork Festival” platter - a generous assortment featuring succulent ribs, crispy bacon, and flavorful sausages, among other pork delicacies. This combination plate offered an excellent variety of flavors and textures.
The restaurant has a cozy European pub atmosphere, with wooden furnishings and traditional decor that transports you to a classic Belgian brasserie.
Each item on the platter was prepared to perfection - the ribs were tender and fell right off the bone, the bacon was just the right balance of crispy and chewy, and the sausages had that authentic snap when bitten into.
For those looking to enjoy pork dishes in Abu Dhabi (which can be somewhat challenging to find), Belgian Cafe is absolutely worth a visit. The portion sizes are generous, making it great value for money, and the quality of the food makes for a truly enjoyable dining experience.
Overall, Belgian Cafe offers a wonderful taste of European cuisine right here in Abu Dhabi. Despite not partaking in their beer offerings, the food alone makes this restaurant a standout choice that I would happily recommend.
