Review: LIPS CAFE'S AMERICAN BREAKFAST
Sunday, November 09, 2014
Today, I'm going to share with you my favorite breakfast meal here in Abu Dhabi. I know this post has been long overdue since we had our breakfast in Mirabel, but as promised, I'm going to give you a review of this cafe.
Lips Cafe stands at the heart of Marina Mall with a casual outdoor seating theme. Its classic couches are usually occupied with diners of different races which makes it crowded. Yes, this cafe is really popular and loved by many. And no matter how I hate dining in crowded places, I just can't help but fall in love with this cafe too. Let me tell you why.
Why I love Lips's American Breakfast
1. They serve an abundant amount of bread and bread spreads. I am a carbs lover and I eat a lot. So I really appreciate cafes that give a generous serving of bread for a breakfast meal. We also get to ask for more bread if in case we need more (which usually happens) at no extra charge. In addition, the bread spreads also come in a variety of flavors and you can bring it home in case you don't get to use them all.
2. They have a generous serving of main and they serve lean meat. As I have mentioned earlier, I eat a lot. So it's obvious that I would love any meal that has a big serving. Also, I love that this cafe serves vegetable omelet because other cafes just don't. I know, this plate is just screaming too much protein! (I hope they used olive oil for frying.) The good thing about this dish is that they have added a thick slice of grilled tomatoes on the plate to somehow keep it balanced.
3. They serve fresh fruits. To compensate for the very oily main, you get to enjoy a bowl of fresh slices of bananas, apples, and strawberries for dessert. Somehow, it helps to lessen that feeling of guilt for taking in too much protein.
4. For drinks, you not only get your choice of coffee or hot chocolate, but a glass of fresh orange juice as well. Nothing beats a plate of breakfast with a cup of hot chocolate! But having an extra glass of fresh juice for your daily dose of vitamin C, isn't that just awesome?
Having all these for breakfast will definitely leave you feeling full. The best part of it is, it only costs AED 48. Aside from their food, I must say that I also love their service! The staff were friendly, accommodating, and sensitive to their customer's needs. They also serve food fast, so waiting isn't going to be a problem. Indeed, Lips Cafe's American Breakfast is the most sulit breakfast meal that you can ever find in the city!

Whoa! That is a LOT of food haha! My husband will love the supply of bread and meat and my kids will dive into those fruits.
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing. Sana we can go to Abu Dhabi too and experience this place. :)
Yes, the serving of their breakfast meal is really huge! People who love carbs and meat will absolutely love to dine here. I also hope that you could come and visit Abu Dhabi. It is really an amazing place! :)
DeleteMy favorite meal is breakfast! It must be nice to have breakfast at Abu Dhabi. I'm curious, what's the weather out there at AD?
ReplyDeleteI cannot survive a day also without having breakfast. Abu Dhabi is having a pretty good climate right now.. summer is almost over and we can start to feel the winter season coming. It's really cold here during winter, there's just no snow though.
DeleteSounds like a great place to eat! I love bread and meat too so I have no doubt I'll like it there. It's just too bad that it's far from here!
ReplyDeleteI love bread and meat too! Lol. Anyway, you can always make a Lips inspired breakfast for you and your family! I'm sure that would taste good too because it's made with LOVE. :)
DeleteBreakfast is the most important meal for the day and it's so nice that this restaurant served good and heavy meals. :)
ReplyDeleteYes, Rackell! Indeed, breakfast is the most important meal of the day! And this cafe serves the best breakfast in the city!
DeleteFull breakfast! How I wish we can fly there to taste how great it is!
ReplyDeleteI agree, this breakfast will certainly make every diner's stomach full. I wish too that you can visit this place. It's really popular among tourists.
DeleteWow. Talagang eat like a king during breakfast. I hope we can visit Abu Dhabi too and give Lips Cafe a try! :)
ReplyDeleteYes, Ayi! Talagang eat like a king sa sobrang dami ng serving! Lol.
DeleteWow. They look so delicious. :)
ReplyDeleteHi Audric's mom! Actually, it didn't just look delicious, it taste good as well!
DeleteBreakfast is my favorite too! At hindi lang basta breakfast, dapat may rice :D
ReplyDeleteI can eat bread with jam and rice with viand in one set-up…hehehe
I used to eat breakfast with rice too pero nasanay na ako dito na hindi nagri-rice kasi hindi lahat ng cafes and restaurants may available na rice meal.
DeleteHi Rozelle, I can't believe that you love carbs and it doesn't show on your figure.. you're very slimǃ Good genes are flowing through your blood, nakakainggit :D The meal you had could last me an entire day. And eating like a king during breakfast is a good practice.
ReplyDeleteHi Ida! Thanks for the compliment! I can't believe too that I can afford to eat that much without getting fat. Maybe because we seldom eat outside. Most of the times, we see to it that we eat home made meals para less cholesterol and less fat.
DeleteWow, I like generous servings haha. I eat a lot too. :D
ReplyDeletePareho tayo, thedreamermom! :)
DeleteHope to visit Abu Dhabi one of these days :)
ReplyDeletePlease do, icecreamandchocolates! Abu Dhabi is really a great place!
DeleteYUM! I think I'm in-love with cafe from unlimited and abundant bread and spread and big portions meals. GREAT!The place also looks inviting, relaxing, a place where family can truly enjoyed their meal.
ReplyDeleteI super love this cafe too, Melgie!
DeleteLooks delicious, mommy! I wish we have this in the Philippines! :)
ReplyDeleteHi Ze! I hope so too. Pero in case wala, masarap pa rin naman ang tapsilog, tocilog, at iba pang mga -LOG meals for breakfast jan sa Pinas.
DeleteI love bread too and the spreads look good! American breakfasts are my favorite!
ReplyDeleteYum! I am a breakfast person :) and just like you, I eat a lot. It is important for me to have a big breakfast. Yes, I love the tomatoes (refreshes) too!
ReplyDeleteWow, parang buffet! :p If I ever find myself in that part of the world, I'm gonna have to go and check them out! Yummy photos :)
