Places to see in Dubai – Foodie Edition

Hey guys, I’m back with another awesome post, but this time I’m gonna make it delicious. As you know I recently explored The City of Gold on a Dubai Bus Tour, but that’s a story for another time. Today I’m gonna post about the best dishes that every foodie should try. So get ready foodies because adventure awaits!s

Mutton achar Handi                                          

A perfect example of Dubai’s wholehearted embrace of expat culture, so do not expect a watered down takeaway curry from this hole-in-the-wall canteen. Ravi’s mutton achar handi is a full-blooded Pakistani plate. The combination of spices and fresh green chili will leave you both catching your breath and heading back for a second serve.

Manousheh                         

It is the good choice for breakfast, it is kind of a local pizza. It Stretched dough or flatbread and is filled with pizza toppings like cheez, meat, olive oil and other delicious stuff.

Shawarma

Now, this is a must, it is the most eaten food in Dubai. Shawarma is not only popular here but also in other countries. It is made with chicken. It has a lot of veggies filled in an Arabic Roti. I personally love it!

Hummus

Made from olive oil, chickpeas, garlic, salt, lemon juice and tahini paste. It is not a dish but rather a dip served with other dishes. It has a very unique taste.

Al Machboos

It is also a very famous traditional dish of UAE. Important ingredients are rice, meat, onion and dried lemon (Loomy). Other seasoning includes spices and salt. In order to cook this dish, all the ingredients are coke well in boiling water till they become tender. Then the meat is separated and rice is added to the remaining mixture and this mixture cooked well. After that meat is again added to this mixture of rice and vegetables and cooked again for two hours. This dish is one of the favorites across gulf area.

So there we have it. These are the dishes that you should definitely try especially the shawarma. If you want to explore the best of the city of gold, I recommend booking the Dubai City Tour from YourtripDubai.
