Chef’s Tasting Menu Paired with Bespoke Cocktails at Bâoli

Well placed within the lively surrounds of J1 Beach, this Chef’s Choice Tasting Menu by Executive Chef Omar Basiony is designed as a relaxed yet elevated journey through Bâoli Dubai’s signature identity, where coastal French and Mediterranean flavors meet the finesse of East Asian technique. Guests are welcomed into a space that effortlessly shifts between restaurant, bar, and beach club, setting the tone for a social, shareable dining experience that unfolds at an unhurried pace, perfectly suited to long evenings by the sea.

The experience begins with a sequence of light, expressive starters curated by the chef as the culinary team guides the table through portions designed for sharing. As the tasting progresses, the menu deepens into warm, savory courses drawn from the robata grill and the heart of the kitchen. Each course is matched with a bespoke cocktail pairing, moving from herbaceous and spice-driven profiles to richer, spirit-forward creations that echo the intensity of the flavors on the plate without overpowering them.

The evening concludes on a decadent yet playful note, with dessert selections that balance indulgence and restraint. A final cocktail pairing, smoother and more contemplative, invites guests to linger, seamlessly transitioning from dinner into the vibrant energy of the bar and beach club beyond.
