Bigger Is Better! P&B Upsizes With Mega Americana-Themed ‘Shake’ Up

Author John Thomas

Nestled right in the heart of Souk Madinat Jumeirah, Perry & Blackwelder’s has developed a local reputation for ol’ fashioned Southern hospitality, comfort food and a rolling good time. With great food, quality service and a vibrant atmosphere, P&B screens international sporting action from around the globe, along with a full schedule of live music.


P&B's recently introduced a new line-up of freakishly good food and drinks and Blogliterati.com was invited to check out this new offering and share our experience with our readers.  The newly launched menu includes super-size sharing platters, metre-long hot dogs, creative cocktails and indulgent Freakshakes.


Perfect for food lovers and party goers alike, P&B’s massive new menu shake-up promises a truly unique American experience all under one roof!

Since it was a cold and wintry Wednesday evening, we started off with some peppy cocktails including few with interesting names like Movie Night and Smile and Say Cheese!  P&B’s new carefully-crafted cocktail menu includes the Smoked Alabama Snapper, a tomato and beetroot-based mixed drink served in a burger cup; the Movie Night is an espresso-based concoction topped with salted popcorn and served in a retro striped popcorn box.



Now for the food, we started off with some appetizers including Chicken Poppers and Mozarella sticks. Chicken poppers we tender and addictive and provoked an eating frenzy right from the first bite! The mozarella sticks were bigger (thicker) than anything i've tried before.



In the mains we went for fillet steak and southern fried chicken. The steak was grilled to perfection and was served with portabello mushroom, grilled corn, smoke sticks and mixed salad. Southern fried chicken was very southern style fried perfectly and sided with creamy mashed potato and coleslaw.  We additionally also had a bowl of texas rice on side.



The New Menu
Perry & Blackwelder’s has an all-new mission: to inject a super-sized dose of fun into evenings with an Americana-inspired freakishly good menu. P&B is embracing its Deep South roots with ginormous sharing dishes designed to be savoured with friends and family. Diners can choose from a giant 700-gram prime beef patty burger, or a metre-long Gutter Dog, both served with a variety of popular toppings.



The re-energized new menu items will join P&B’s American comfort food staples, including loaded potato skins and Louisiana -style shrimp Po’boy; artisanal smoked brisket; a 500-gram ‘Cowboy Steak’ Ribeye on the bone; and its popular Old-Fashioned P&B Burger.

P&B is also invading Instagram with a new line-up of all-new Freakshakes for milkshake mavens, including The Super Freaky Freakshake - a 1.5 litre thick chocolate milkshake topped with toasted marshmallows, ice cream cones, chocolate brownie, donuts, wafers and more chocolate. Other concoctions include The Mississippi Mud Shake - a chocolate shake topped with a brownie, a donut, an ice cream cone, cookies & cream and toasted marshmallows.

We tried The Unicorn - a strawberry shake loaded with fruit sweets, strawberry, white chocolate, cotton candy, wafers and cream. However the star highlight in the freak shakes is the Bee’s Knees - a vanilla-flavoured shake dressed up with honeycomb syrup, waffles, honey macaroon, toffee popcorn and fudge.

In line with operator JRG Dubai’s company-wide policy on avoiding single use plastics, all P&B Freakshakes are be served with paper straws.

Entertainment
From the Boxtones Trio to the epic blues-rock band Lady J and the Royal Vagabonds, P&B’s new entertainment line-up will have guests jumping off their seats and rocking out those dance moves!
Heightening the spice to Wingman Wednesdays from 9pm – 12pm, the Boxtones Trio, entertain guests with a fusion of folk tunes that carry big, rocky choruses and pumping melodies. Thanks to Lady J & the Royal Vagabonds, Thursday nights just got better – the band promises a bona fide blues experience that will have party-goers shimming into the weekend without a care in the world!

A Bong Affair at Dil Se Desi, Bur Dubai

Bengal is home to one of the most diverse and unique cuisines in the whole of India and no two Bengali dishes are alike. Having lived in the UAE for past thirteen years, I have had the good fortune to enjoy some varied international cuisines however, however there has been a big lacunae in the Bengali culinary space with very few restaurants specialised in Bengali fare. There are hardly any restaurants here in Dubai that cater to this segment. I thank my good friend and blogger Subashree for introducing me to Dil Se Desi. This restaurant is an answer the long felt need for more north indian and bengali cuisine restaurants in this space.  The restaurant is run by a passionate couple who left their jobs to follow their dream of starting a restaurant that offered very true-to-roots simple and sincere fare that could be enjoyed by all. I visited Dil Se Desi last week - a very humble and unassuming restaurant offering some very refreshing north eastern tastes. I enjoy...

After my recent visit to Gunaydin – which in my opinion is the best Turkish restaurant in Dubai, my expectations from any Turkish restaurants have risen to all time high. When I got invited from Zou Zou – the Turkish Lebanese restaurant at La Mer, I was all in for it, to try and compare. I visited Zou Zou last week with a very dear friend who is also a big foodie like me and a lover of all things Turkish. So needless to say, we went there with lots of expectations and a hungry tummy of course. I must mention that Zou Zou didn’t disappoint. First off I have to remark about the service. It was pleasant, warm and quick. I was met by Latif Kural the friendly operations manager who has played a role in the setting up several reputed Turkish restaurants in the Dubai.  He is a fine guy with a very pleasant disposition who ensured we felt 'at home'. Latif assigned a waiter de table for us and made sure to drop in every now and then to check on us and see if we were enjoyi...
