The CEO of Five Hotels and Resorts, Aloki Batra said the Chicago-born gastropub is something new for Dubai and an ‘everything under one roof entertainment venue’.
Among the activities available at the new venue are virtual golf, pool, gaming area, and private barrel tasting room. It also offers 14 specially curated beers on tap and features a varied menu featuring everything from pub classics such as burgers to a special pork menu.
Batra said: “Dishes that are sure to be ‘foodie favourites’ include ‘The Dirty Burger, (marble patty, brioche bun, brie, maple glazed bacon, tomato confit, truffle aioli), delicious vegan treat Caul-Me Vegan Cauliflower Wings (crispy battered cauliflower wings served with vegan blue cheese dip, choose between Asian sesame or Chicago fire sauce) and the sweetest choices such as the Goose chocolate mousse (chocolate sponge, dark chocolate mousse, caramelised nuts, caramel sauce, vanilla ice cream) or the Jumbo Ice Cream Cookie Sandwich (giant fudge cookies, vanilla ice cream)to share – and of course, the very special pork menu including Pork Belly with Cider (fruit chutney, mixed greens, mustard mash, cider jus).”
JVC has been touted as an upcoming spot for F&B in Dubai. Batra believes Goose Island will reach the right demographic in the area. He said: “Jumeirah Village Circle is a thriving and discerning population of young professionals and families that are geared up and excited to experience the very best that Five has to offer – our culinary and entertainment offerings are specially designed to provide the community-at-large a complete bouquet of day-to-night experiences that showcase the unique vibe at Five.”
