Get a Royal Roast at QWERTY
Kick things off with tasty starters like savoury sausage rolls or a classic prawn cocktail with a zesty sauce. Feeling adventurous? For the main event, dive into juicy roast beef, tender roast lamb, or a mixed roast to get the best of both worlds. Each main comes with sides that will make your taste buds dance – think rosemary and black pepper roast potatoes, cinnamon and honey-glazed carrots, and a medley of veggies with a lemon-garlic twist. And of course, no roast is complete without tangy red cabbage with cranberries and a perfectly puffed Yorkshire pudding. Save room for dessert because you can’t miss the warm, custardy bread & butter pudding or the classic trifle loaded with sponge cake, fruit, jelly, and custard. All this for just AED 175, but if you swing by in June, it’s only AED 149. Every Sunday from 12:30pm until 9:30pm. Call +971 52 144 7348 or email qwerty@mediaonehotel.com.
