This
building
houses
one
of
the
best
places
to
relax
while
enjoying
a
quick
bite
and
coffee
(or
Tea)
-
The
DMCC
Lounge!
DMCC
LOUNGE
I've
been
eyeing
this
place
since
I
made
a
deposit
to
my
Emirates
NBD
account
using
the
ATM
machine
in
the
same
floor
and
building
a
while
back.
Today,
after
making
another
bank
transaction,
I've
made
a
decision
to
check
out
this
place
-
The
DMCC
Lounge.
AMBIENCE
Before
its
entrance,
there
is
a
peculiar
piece
of
art
that
got
me
even
more
interested
in
getting
inside
the
lounge.
Upon
entry,
you'd
feel
like
you're
smacked
in
the
middle
of
two
worlds.
To
your
left
is
a
neat
looking
cafe
facade,
while
the
right
side
looks
like
a
real
estate
showroom.
Actually
it's
a
coffee
shop
with
scale
model
of
buildings
including
my
favorite,
Blue
Waters
Island.
The
place
also
mimic
the
feel
of
an
art
gallery
in
some
respects
-
or
at
least
that's
how
I
felt
like
as
I
walk
inside
past
the
entrance.
Lights
are
warm
to
the
eyes
and
strategically
distributed
around
the
whole
place
that
puts
hues
of
elegance
in
most
corners
of
this
lounge.
Yes,
because
of
the
homy
lights,
comfy
furnitures,
nice
looking
stuff
they
use
to
present
your
food
(Yes,
I
ordered
some
so
I
have
a
reason
to
stay
and
take
IG-worthy
photos
haha!),
this
coffee
shop
deserves
to
call
itself
a
"Lounge"
because
you
can't
help
but
relax
when
you're
already
inside
admiring
all
of
its
interiors.
And
exteriors
-
Yes,
they
have
an
al
fresco
spot
which
overlooks
a
good
view
if
you
fancy
such
and
fresh
air
while
you
enjoy
your
coffee,
tea
or
something
else.
FOOD
Coffee
was
not
available
earlier
so
I
ordered
their
"Detox
Elixir".
Basically
the
most
fragrant
tea
I've
ever
had
in
my
life.
Taste
is
basic,
but
that
aroma
and
its
warmth
are
enough
to
relax
me
and
hopefully
detox
me
as
well
haha!
I
also
ordered
this
breadbowl-looking
bread
that,
they
said,
had
a
garlic
and
cream
filling.
That
sounded
yummy,
it
actually
looked
yummy,
so
I
ordered
and
was
I
so
glad
I
did!
Hands-down,
one
of
the
best-tasting
simple
bread
I've
ever
consumed
here
in
Dubai.
Really
YUMMY
and,
more
importantly,
super
filling
because
it's
not
a
small
piece
of
bread.
All
these
are
brought
to
my
table
and
presented
in
a
way
that
just
made
me
go
"That's
really
nice!".
OVERALL
EXPERIENCE
I'd
like
to
say
"Not
Too
Bad.."
but
that
won't
be
representative
of
my
brief
experience
inside
the
DMCC
Lounge.
Because
I
was
amazed
by
the
entrance
and
wanted
to
go
inside
and
did
go
inside
and
loved
it.
Because
when
I
was
inside
the
interiors
were
mesmerizing.
Because
when
I
settled
down
on
a
table
and
enjoyed
my
drink
and
food,
I
felt
like
I
just
want
to
do
that
and
be
there
for
the
rest
of
the
day.
Don't
take
my
word
for
it.
Visit
the
DMCC
Lounge
one
time
and
you'll
thank
me
for
it.
