Authentic Levantine Meat Pie with Fresh Sides at Bab El Bahr
This season, Bab El Bahr invites early risers, wanderers, and culinary explorers to discover a fresh way to start the day with its Breakfast on the Terrace experience — an al fresco morning ritual set against the vibrant heart of Downtown Dubai.
Perched along Mohammed Bin Rashid Boulevard, Bab El Bahr has long been celebrated for its coastal Levantine cuisine and elegant dining atmosphere, blending Mediterranean culinary heritage with contemporary flair. Now, as the cooler months settle in and the city blossoms with energy, the restaurant brings a new reason to greet the day outdoors: breakfast with a view, crafted with freshness, flavour, and memorable detail.
From wholesome spreads of mezze and fresh breads to delightful dishes such as labneh avocado sourdough, smoked turkey croissant and scrambled eggs with scamorza, each plate echoes the coastal roots that define Bab El Bahr’s identity. The menu (served daily until early afternoon) shines with variety, ensuring that whether guests seek a leisurely start or a social morning over coffee and conversation, there’s something to delight every palate. Paired with fresh juices, uplifting smoothies, and rich coffees, the breakfast unfolds with the same warmth and energy as the morning itself.
A Terrace with a View
What makes Bab El Bahr’s morning offering truly special is its setting. The terrace transforms with the sunrise, offering diners a front-row seat to one of Dubai’s most dynamic urban landscapes. The gentle hum of the boulevard, framed by lush greenery and stylish outdoor seating, creates an ambience that feels both relaxed and refined, perfect for families, friends, or solo guests looking to savor the start of their day with elegance and ease.
In a city known for brunch and dinner destinations, Bab El Bahr’s breakfast offers a welcome alternative: an experience that pairs great food with sunlit mornings. It’s an invitation to slow down, savor your first cup, and enjoy a quieter side of Dubai.

noon Beauty Fest Debuts at Dubai Festival City Mall

When it comes to skincare, elements like texture, scent, formula suitability and skin compatibility play a crucial role that digital screens are unable to convey. This October, noon is answering those questions in person. noon Beauty Fest – Skincare Edition is all set to take place from 23rd to 25th October 2026 at Dubai Festival City Mall. The event will be open from 7 PM to midnight on 23rd October and from 4 PM to midnight on 24th and 25th October with free entry for all visitors.
Skincare brands that are coming together under one roof to showcase their offerings span across derma, pharmacy and Korean beauty: Medicube, La Roche-Posay, CeraVe, Cetaphil, ISDIN, Vichy, AXIS-Y, QV, Abib, Dr. Althea, numbuzin, Celimax and VT Cosmetics.
The event concept is built on the idea – beauty is felt first, then bought. Online shoppers typically discover products through a screen. At noon Beauty Fest, they can see, touch, smell, try them in person, get expert advice driving trials to gauge the efficacy and the authenticity of the products and then buy instantly on the noon app. It is where online discovery becomes a real-world experience that turns into a purchase.. making it a “phygital” beauty playground.
Visitors can explore their way through the themed brand booths to discover the latest launches, learn about key ingredients and receive expert advice tailored to their skincare needs. Additionally, each booth offers gamified engagement activities with the opportunity to win freebies and product samples as well pick up exclusive coupons to shop their favourite brands at noon.
As the largest online marketplace in the GCC, noon understands the behavioral diversity of shoppers in the region. The homegrown E-commerce retailer brings local, global and hard-to-find international brands all in one place at competitive prices and with great deals. noon Beauty Fest is a step towards bringing that promise straight to customers through an immersive, real world experiential event.
Florian Jansen, General Manager, Lifestyle, noon commented, “Beauty is one of noon’s fastest-growing categories – up 45% in 2026 and noon Beauty Fest sets the tone by bringing that momentum to life in person for the first time at Dubai Festival City Mall. Over three days, shoppers can experience a hybrid activation hosted exclusively by noon with 13 of the most loved skincare brands on the noon app – just ahead of the region’s biggest shopping period in November. For each brand, this event is a direct line to real-time customer feedback; for noon, it’s the start of becoming the primary destination for beauty online and building a loyal community over time.” Dubai Festival City Mall will host noon Beauty Fest at Festival Bay from 23rd to 25th October 2026.
