Office siren this, boss babe that — we love a good business-core vibe. Add a brunch-adjacent lunch into the mix, and you’ve unlocked the perfect combo for the woman who knows how to wind down, but only just enough to keep her workday on track. Because you can definitely be in your #hustle era with a great lunch ahead of you.
So instead of spending your lunch break doomscrolling through TikTok or staring blankly at the sad salad you default-ordered, switch things up and make your way to the Business Lunch at Origins, Vida Dubai Mall. Their cleverly titled “We Mean Business” lunch really does mean business, and because it’s set right in the heart of Downtown Dubai (but still a healthy distance from most offices), you’ve got very few excuses not to hop in the car and actually make a moment of it.
Running daily from 12:30pm to 3:00pm, this walk-in, three-course dining experience is what your day has been begging for. Imagine you, away from the grey walls of your office, swapping passive scrolling for plates of fresh, flavourful food that put your usual takeaway to shame. Origins keeps it simple and stress-free with a buffet-style set menu featuring an international mix of appetisers, mains, and desserts. And yes, there are plenty of vegetarian and vegan options.
If you’re craving a little extra serotonin (and honestly, who isn’t?), head to their chilled terrace for some well-deserved winter sun, overlooking the pool and golf course. If the stars align, you can even snag one of the seats facing the Burj Khalifa, standing tall against a crisp blue sky. So, whether you’re hosting a client meeting, escaping the office with your work bestie, or just gifting yourself a mid-week, mid-day getaway.
