Farriers, The Meydan Hotel

Farriers is an all day dining restaurant which is equine-themed with an international menu. As I proceeded towards the entrance of Farriers I caught a quick glance of the brunch affair outside the restaurant, in the lobby area of the hotel which comprised of various live cooking stations. Kids can play in a bouncy castle, do face painting or indulge in the strawberry fountain, all in an area dedicated only to them.
The restaurant had a relaxed atmosphere although the place was filling up fast. The decor allows the simplistic beauty of the food to really shine; though beauty isn’t the only thing bringing people here. The table was meticulously set.
I had Manakish with Za’atar and Cheese, Thai beef salad and smoked duck as an entrée. The Manakish freshly prepared and warm and the salad and duck were delectable. My main course was assorted maki(avocado and cucumber wrapped in rice), Prawn Tempura, Macaroni Bechamel and a slice of roasted lamb leg. The Macaroni was a big hit! You could taste the well -cooked macaroni with minced beef and béchamel sauce, topped with warm mozzarella cheese. For Desserts, I had already tasted the chocolate fountain, one of the best I’ve tasted till now. Also, I had the Cheese Cake which was velvety, rich and sweet.The crust was pretty hard though. Profiteroles were as light as air, topped with chocolate and filled with a delicate fresh cream. I also tried the flourless chocolate cake, Honey Pistachio Mousse Cake, Tiramisu, Praline and Honey Mousse Cake, Malva Pudding and chocolate Macarons.
The service was excellent.The polite and friendly staff assisted us from the reservations till we stepped out from the place. I highly recommend you to make yourself comfortable out on the terrace and enjoy the races as you get an excellent view of the racecourse, dining whatever fancies you the most.
