Natural
A timeless option. This simple preparation lets the natural taste of mussels shine. Light herbs and a gentle steam cook deliver a clean, fresh experience.
Mariniere

Thai Curry
Up for something exotic? The Thai Curry variation brings coconut curry warmth and Southeast Asian spices to your mussels—perfect for spice lovers.
Blue Cheese
For the adventurous eater. Rich, creamy, and packed with strong cheese notes, this version is decadently bold and unforgettable.
Hot & Spicy
If heat is your thing, this one delivers! A fiery sauce gives these mussels a bold punch that adds a lively edge to your plate.
Pro Tip: Go for the Unlimited Option
Can’t get enough? The unlimited AED 199 option is a must. You can sample different flavors, find your top picks, and even share with your group. It’s the ultimate way to taste it all without limits!
Don’t Forget the Fries
In true Belgian tradition, mussels are best enjoyed with fries—something Belgian Beer Cafe does flawlessly. Their golden, crispy frites are the perfect match. Dip them in the leftover mussel broth for a flavor bomb you won’t forget.
