Okay Ras Al Khaimah… we see you. Just when we thought beachfront dining couldn’t get any hotter (literally), Pullman Resort Al Marjan Island goes ahead and drops Braai right on its private beach. And not just any restaurant. We’re talking open flames, South African beats, smoky grills, and that “why does this feel like a holiday within a holiday?” energy.
Welcome to Braai — where fire meets flavour and the beach becomes your front-row seat.
So… What Exactly Is a “Braai”?
If you’ve never experienced a South African braai, think of it as a BBQ… but with personality. And culture. And rhythm. It’s not just about grilling meat — it’s about gathering around the fire, sharing stories, laughing too loudly, and staying way longer than you planned.
Now imagine that vibe transported straight to Al Marjan Island, with the Arabian Gulf sparkling in the background and the scent of flame-grilled goodness in the air. Casual flex, Pullman.
Fire Is the Main Character
At Braai, the grill isn’t hiding in the kitchen. Oh no. It’s front and centre — because this is live-fire cooking theatre. Expect premium flame-grilled meats, fresh seafood, and signature South African dishes prepared right before your eyes.
It’s bold. It’s smoky. It’s the kind of food that makes you pause mid-conversation just to say, “Wait… try this.”
And yes, the beverages are curated to match those big, beautiful flavours. Because what’s a braai without the perfect sip to go with that perfectly charred bite?
From Morning Chill to Sunset Thrill
Here’s the plot twist: Braai isn’t just a dinner spot. It’s open daily from 8:00 AM to 10:00 PM. Morning coffee with a sea breeze? Sorted. Lazy beach lunch? Absolutely. Sunset grill session that turns into an unplanned night out? Very likely.
As the sun dips, the energy shifts. The flames glow brighter, live South African entertainment kicks in, and a resident DJ takes over. One minute you’re enjoying a relaxed beachfront meal… the next you’re wondering how you ended up dancing in the sand. No regrets.
It’s giving day-to-night transformation energy, and we’re here for it.
A Launch That Meant Business
When Braai officially opened on 15 February, it didn’t exactly tiptoe into the scene. More than 300 guests from across Ras Al Khaimah and the UAE showed up to celebrate. That’s not just a soft opening — that’s an arrival.
And according to Evan Harrington, Cluster General Manager of Pullman Resort Al Marjan Island, this isn’t just about a new restaurant. It’s about evolving beachfront dining in RAK. Bold. Social. Culturally authentic. A concept that brings South Africa to life through fire, flavour and music.
Mission accomplished.
Why This Matters for RAK
Let’s be honest — Ras Al Khaimah’s dining scene is having a moment. And Braai feels like a statement. It reinforces Pullman’s transformation into a vibrant, energy-led social hub on Al Marjan Island.
It’s not just “come eat and leave.” It’s “come gather, connect, celebrate, repeat.”
So if your idea of a good time includes open flames, beach views, high-energy vibes and food that doesn’t hold back… Braai might just become your new personality trait.
