Think Shawarma, Tabouleh and Hoummus – mouth watering isn’t it?

Well these are just some of the familiar Arabic food found around the world. However, the classy Arabic restaurants in Dubai will ensure that your knowledge of the menu expands from a huge platter of fresh salads, flat Arabic bread, shawarma and falafel to juicy grilled meat and fish kebabs.

Other favorites include Matchbous, a dish with rice and lamb; Arrayes, bread stuffed with spicy meat mince. UmAli an Arabic version of bread pudding and Mehlabiya is a dessert with pista and rosewater.

In some of the restaurants, along with the excellent food you can also relax with a Sheesha (smoke)as well. The waiters are friendly and speak in English and Arabic. Keeping in mind that Dubai was a fishing port to start off with, there are many Arabic restaurants which offer an assortment of fresh fish which you can choose from, which is then cooked and served to you.

When in Dubai, don’t miss out on the healthy Arabic cuisine.
