Dubai is renowned for its diverse cultures and this is reflected in the range of cuisines available. With over 450 restaurants, gastronomic delights from all corners of the globe are accounted for. Like the city itself, Arab gastronomy is too diverse, most Dubai restaurants offering Moroccan, Lebanese, Persian and other Arab flavors. Emirati is the local cuisine. Start with mezze, a combination of appetizers. This may include hummus and fattayer – tasty hot bread stuffed with cheese, onions and spinach.

Main courses will include rich dishes usually made from combinations of beef, lamb, chicken or seafood with rice, pinenuts and yoghurt. At many restaurants Shisha pipes will also be offered before or after the meal. These are fragrant water pipes smoked with flavors such as apple or cinnamon. Dubai is also at the forefront of 'fusion' restaurants, where the diner can base their meal on a particular cuisine, or mix and match. Let your taste buds go wild! Indian restaurants are also prevalent in Dubai, and local specialties include kaddai jhinga – a prawn dish and murg tikka makmali – a chicken feast.

For those who want to stick with tried and tested old favorites or have children to cater for, the Hard Rock Café and Planet Hollywood both have bases in Dubai, along with plenty of French, Italian and other European restaurants.
