If you go through the Instagram page of Chateau Blanc you will be completely wowed by their exquisite cakes and pastries. Being a huge dessert lover, I put this place on top of my must-visit list for 2018. And yesterday I visited them for breakfast and also tried their signature cakes.
Located on Jumeirah Road, Chateau Blanc is a spacious venue that has two floors. They offer complimentary valet service too. The ground floor is the patisserie and the top floor is the lounge and terrace.
The ground floor has a beautiful atmosphere with European inspired decor. We were floored by the sheer variety of their products. It included a vast array of fresh and exquisitely handcrafted cakes, cupcakes, pastries, chocolate truffles, macaroons, cookies, bakery products, homemade ice creams and more.
They offer customized cakes for all occasions and their gift hampers are impressive. Now I know where to come for ordering cakes for special occasions for my family and friends.
After we had a look at all their sweet treats, we decided to try three of their signature cakes after our breakfast and headed to the top floor.
We took an elevator to the top floor which is a terrace and a lounge. It was like going to a different venue. The decor and atmosphere is very different from the patisserie downstairs.
The lounge has an Asian inspired decor with comfortable seating area with breathtaking view of the sea, Burj Al Arab on one side and Burj Khalifa on the other side. The decor of the lounge is sassy, classy and inviting. We felt like spending our whole day there.
The lounge also features an unlicensed bar with an expert mixologist and barista. The lounge offers shisha in the evenings.
After being seated, we ordered our drinks first. Their drinks menu features a huge range of regular mocktails, signature mocktails, smoothies, frozen drinks, milkshakes, fresh juices, speciality coffees and tea.
We ordered two of their signature mocktails- Ginger Martini and Elderflower Cucumber. Both our drinks were fantastic and oh-so-refreshing.
We started our breakfast on a healthy note with a tall glass of Chia Pudding that had a delicious and healthy combo of dates, honey, coconut jelly, raisins, roasted nuts and crispy granola flakes.
While I ordered their Eggs Benedict, my friend ordered Avocado on Toast. The Eggs Benedict served with luscious poached eggs topped with silky smooth Hollandaise sauce on a perfectly toasted English muffin made an indulgent breakfast on a weekend.
My friend gave a ‘thumbs up’ for her creamy avocado on toast with poached eggs that was served with a side of mixed greens.
We also shared their Signature Waffle that was served warm with mixed berries, caramelized nuts, maple syrup and berry compote. It was utterly delicious.
After our breakfast we ordered a Cappuccino and Matcha Latte to drink. Chateau Blanc knows how to make a good cup of coffee. If you are a matcha fan, don’t miss their Matcha Latte as it is excellent.
As I said in the beginning, that we will be trying their signature cakes in the end and we did. Not one cake but three- Nutty Nutella, Tropical Mango and Strawberry Cheesecake.
The Nutty Nutella was rich and creamy with layers of cake with Nutella cream. The Tropical Mango cake had mango purée paired with white chocolate mousse and a hint of fresh lemongrass. It was so refreshingly delicious and light. The Strawberry Cheesecake had a super creamy texture and it was packed with great flavor and taste.
Our overall experience was fabulous. Everything was amazing from their beautifully crafted cakes to perfectly mixed drinks and delicious breakfast. The service was top notch and the atmosphere is wonderful. I’ll be back soon.
