Luxurious Dining In Dubai

Dubai is a city where the Oriental food and luxury have merged into an incredible culinary scene. Let’s explore it with Eatagram.

Emirati cuisine is a reflection of centuries-old Arab cooking traditions. Made of simple local ingredients, typical Dubai’s food is incomparable and tastes natural, mesmerizing food enthusiasts with its authentic flavors.

A typical Emirati breakfast includes a medley of go-to dishes. Baleetat is an unexpected blend of flavors, for it’s a pasta based dish enriched with sweetening, fragrant ingredients: vermicelli, omelet, sugar, cinnamon, saffron and spices. The whole preparation is dressed with orange blossom or rose water to ensure an incredible Oriental aroma. Beidh wa tomat or shakshuka seem to be somewhat simple, but they are really delicious. No Emirato breakfast is possible without freshly baked bread. Be it fluffy khameer bread, creamy-white raqaq bread or chabab bread, it tastes incredible with most traditional Emirati dishes.

Can’t decide on lunch and dinner? Street food stalls and restaurants of Dubai offer an overwhelming array of dishes with awesome authentic flavors. You absolutely should taste hareeth. Hareeth is a wheat porridge mixed with lamb and ghee. Sometimes some sugar is added for a richer flavor. The recipe has been passed down through generations for centuries, and no family gathering can go without hareeth. Samak Mashwi is another iconic Emiraty specialty. It’s roasted in a dome-shaped barbecue made of clay.

Emirati desserts are a special chapter in the cookbook of Dubai. We adore the one and only favorite — luqaimat, deep-fried dough balls sprinkled with sesame sweets. Enjoy it with strong Arabic coffee, but take care: luqaimat can steal your heart!
