Huge space with several seating areas including an outdoor terrace that overlooks Emirates Palace. Or sofas overlooking the lobby.

Evening presentation is corona, Heineken, Jack Daniels and other spirits, wine. There might have been a presecco, but I wasn't paying attention.

Three hot dishes and a soup (one night - curry, lamb and smoked eggplant puree, croquettes, carrot and ginger soup). Cheeses, fruits and breads. Avocado humus, Arabic dip, couple other canapés, beef dish in mini cassoulet.

Real star is the pastry station. Different offerings every day. Same type sweets they have in Pearl Lounge. All restaurant quality. At least 6-8 different types with influences from around the world... alfajores, baklava, tiramisu. Only regret is no bailey's or a sweet wine to go with dessert.

I'd be stunned if the place ever gets remotely full. You can definitely make a full dinner out if it if you choose. Ample selection and high quality. Whoever is running F&B knows what they're doing.
