La Mar Doha by Gastón Acurio is launching an exciting brand new Yunza Friday Brunch, evoking the festive atmosphere of the traditional Peruvian Yunza festival.
From 19 April, join them every Friday for a lively 'Yunza' themed brunch at La Mar, at the InterContinental Doha Beach & Spa. This celebration draws inspiration from the traditional Peruvian Yunza festival, an annual event where participants dance around a tree, taking turns to cut it down. Small gifts are attached to the tree, and once felled, these gifts are joyously distributed to all, with the person who cut the tree becoming the sponsor for the next year.

At La Mar, the Friday brunch brings this spirited celebration to Doha with a mini-Yunza affair. Indulge in a feast of Peruvian specialties and vibrant dishes, including traditional options not typically found on menus. Main courses include: Seafood Cau Cau, Peruvian seafood stew with cau cau sauce, green peas, and chalaquita; Chaufa Capon, stir-fried rice with beef, vegetables, chifera sauce, and fried wontons; and Pollo a la Brasa, a popular Peruvian roast chicken dish, marinated in chilli sauces and served with deep fried potatoes, chimichurri, and Peruvian sauces.
Experience the unique Yunza Tree dessert, a mini tree served at your table with an assortment of Yunza themed sweets, including La Chocoteja with dulce de leche and pecan, Los Bombones with chocolate, salted caramel, and passion fruit, and Alfajores, Peruvian cookies with dulce de leche. The live station featuring the dessert of the day is also a must-try.
The atmosphere will be filled with the sounds of live Latin music and performers.
