Indulge in all the Middle Eastern flavors found in Dubai, on our walking food tour. Keep your tummies ready to kick start with some Syrian chickpea Falafel and cheese Manakish, a kind of Arabic pizza. After walking to our next venue, you will taste the traditional lentil soup, often eaten after breaking the fast in Ramadan with fresh, sour lemon juice and crunchy bread flakes. Then it’s time to enjoy your main dish: samples of an Arabic grill plate served with Arabic salad and hot Arabic “khubz” which is a bread. Try “Maskouf” a grilled fish that origins from the sweet water rivers of Iraq. Get a taste of Yemeni food from “Mandhi”. Traditionally the chicken is slowly cooked to make it very tender and delicious when served over aromatic rice. The last stop will be in a pastry shop where you can satisfy your sweet tooth with ‘booza’ – ice cream prepared with pistachios and rose water. Try also the various kinds of rich baklava together with a cup of Arabic coffee with a note of Cardamom to finish your local food experience.
