There’s a new reason to look forward to lunch breaks in Dubai. Avli by tashas has just introduced a refreshing Business Lunch that captures the charm and rhythm of Athenian life, offering a moment of calm in the middle of a busy day. Priced at AED 139 per person and available Monday to Friday from 12:00pm to 3:00pm, it’s a relaxed yet elevated experience that blends modern Greek flavors with the warmth of Mediterranean hospitality.
A Taste of Greece, Refined
The new Business Lunch at Avli by tashas starts with a choice of mezedes that balance freshness and comfort. Guests can begin with Seabream Crudo, a prawn salad with cucumber and shaved fennel, or the Spanakorizo Arancini, a crisp bite filled with spinach, leeks, and whipped feta. For something more traditional, the lahanodolmades bring home-style comfort to the table.
Main Courses That Feel Like a Getaway
Head Chef Vlassia Anagnostou has curated mains that reflect both simplicity and depth. Think tender chicken souvlaki served with pita and tzatziki, or perfectly grilled seabream finished with a petimezi dressing for a touch of sweetness. There’s also Kritharaki, a comforting orzo dish elevated with halloumi, parmesan, fresh mint, and lemon, a modern nod to the kind of dishes shared around Greek family tables.
Sweet Finishes and Midday Moments
Dessert is available as an optional extra, but it’s hard to resist. The Pisies, made of crisp fried phyllo layered with cheesecake cream, raspberries, and hazelnut praline, is a must-try. Or you can go for the Peach Pavlova, with marinated peaches, Chantilly cream, and a light, crunchy meringue. Pair your meal with a glass of wine or a cold beer from Avli by tashas’ curated selection, and the experience feels complete.
A Pause Worth Taking
Beyond the menu, what makes the Avli by tashas Business Lunch special is its atmosphere. It’s not about rushing through a meal, it’s about taking a moment to slow down, enjoy the details, and feel the ease of Mediterranean living. With its chic interiors, calm energy, and focus on quality, Avli by tashas turns an ordinary weekday into something worth savoring.
