The Dragon Brunch

Last weekend, we went to the infamous brunch that everyone from last year always talked about.   We drove out to the Armwaj Islands and found ourselves at The Dragon hotel.  It was 25BD to get in but, it is a buffet that is all you can eat food for almost five hours and unlimited drinks for about six hours... I would say it is definitely worth every cent.  I can't even begin to explain how beautiful it was at the hotel. The entire group wore dressy outfits and suits just to put a little more class on the event. When we arrived at the hotel, we waited outside where there were cabanas and an outside bar, a view of the ocean, three pools; it was simply one of the most beautiful moments I have had in Bahrain. You forget that you are in a desert and growing city and you escape for a little bit to a tropical island almost!

Here is a view of one of the pools and the ocean.  All the students tell me to go to Armwaj Islands because they are so beautiful... now I know they are telling the truth!  This part of Bahrain was also on House Hunters International if you watch that show ;)

Here are the two tables where our group sat. It was very nice to go out with all the teachers and enjoy our first weekend after school started!

Now, on to the amazing part! The food! Below are some of the set ups of the food that was available. The buffet is completely unlimited for four hours!!! All the food tasted amazing and I honestly could not stop eating... it was almost painful.

These are some of the cold options they had to offer. There were also hot options, a whole salad mixing table, a pasta station, a bread table, soups, sushi, desserts, bar and a menu you could order from. You pretty much ate anything you wanted and it was covered in the initial cost.

Sushi that was made fresh! They would even cut off pieces of fish right in front of you... yes I did try it. I liked it but it took some getting used to the texture of eating raw fish. This was probably my favorite part of what The Dragon Brunch had to offer.

Unless, you count dessert as foods! There was a whole table of all sorts of dessert from cakes, to ones they made for you to chocolate mousse and cheesecake. One amazing feat... they actually had a chocolate cake that I liked! I went back for a second piece!

Overall, the "Brunch Experience" is definitely one that I will repeat again. I have heard that there are a ton of other options as for where to go to brunch and some of the girls form last year said that The Dragon's brunch doesn't even compare to some of the other options. I can't wait to see if what they say is true because this experience was amazing and I was very impressed!
Until next time <3
