Whether he is walking through the bustling streets of Dubai, enjoying the coastal breeze in Abu Dhabi, or exploring Sharjah’s hidden gems, he will find that the food in the EAU is more than simply support, it is a celebration.
🌯 Street eats that they steal the show
Start with the food of the King of the EAU: Shawarma. Found in almost every corner, this marinated meat wrap, garlic sauce and Pepinillos de Middle East is a quick and satisfactory bite. Then there is Manakish, often known as the “Arab Pizza”, covered with za’atar, cheese or minced meat, perfect for breakfast or a nightly snack.
🍛 A flavor to the Emirati inheritance
Do not go without trying Harees and Machboos, two plates deeply rooted in the Emirati tradition. Slowly and lovingly cooked, they reflect the Beduine spirit: simple ingredients, bold flavors and shared foods. Luqaimat, golden balls sprinkled with syrup dated, are an essential dessert, especially during Ramadan.
🍣 A global culinary patio

The high -end restaurants of the chefs with Michelin stars sit side by side with humble restaurants that have been serving the locals for decades.
☕ Culture in a cup
Do not miss the Arab coffee (Gahwa), with a touch of cardamom and served with dates. It is more than a simple drink; It is a hospitality symbol. Whether in a Beduine store or in a modern coffee, this aromatic beer brings together people.
