High above Dubai on the 51st floor of ICD Brookfield Place, Il Gattopardo quietly offers a refined take on Italian dining. Now, the restaurant is introducing Il Pranzo, a weekend lunch that draws inspiration from Italy’s golden era and its relaxed, social way of eating.
Every Saturday from noon, Il Pranzo invites guests to slow down and enjoy a long, unhurried lunch. For AED 198 per person, diners are treated to a three-course menu that begins at a live crudo bar, where fresh antipasti are laid out for guests to pick and chat with the chef.
The meal continues with traditional Italian mains like Tagliata di Manzo—Josper-grilled striploin with crispy potatoes and gremolata—or Triglia, red mullet with romanesco artichokes, Taggiasca olives, and marinara sauce. For dessert, the restaurant’s signature tiramisu is a must, or guests can opt for gelato served with honey and spelt. Live music fills the room during lunch, creating a relaxed atmosphere that shifts into a lively vibe when the resident DJ starts spinning at 4 PM.
Il Pranzo feels like a simple invitation to gather, share good food, and enjoy the weekend with a distinctly Italian touch—high above the city below.
