Emirate of Dubai, United Arab Emirates Food Guide: 4 Contemporary food Must-Eat Restaurants & Street Food Stalls in Dubai

January 11, 2020 Viva Honore

Find out what Contemporary restaurants to try in Dubai. Forty years ago Dubai was a small desert town, isolated from the world and considered a “hardship posting” for those who were sent there on business. Fast-forward in time and it’s sometimes hard to imagine that this dynamic and world-famous city was ever once just sand. Glittering skyscrapers, a 12-lane highway, the world’s biggest, fastest, best. But that’s the beauty of the city: scratch its shiny surface and the Arab heritage and hospitality is still there. Old souks, wind towers, and forts are nestled adjacent to the monuments of modernity. With 200 nationalities living and working peacefully alongside one another, Dubai is a truly global city with a huge heart.

Jones The Grocer

Reviewed By Grant G

Great location, Great Hotel, not so great service and quality of food.Jones the Grocer at Dusit Thani is two stars behind the service and quality of food of Jones the Grocer in Al Safa.A series of mistakes from incorrect coffee orders to a 30 minute wait for a breakfast to a delay in receiving the bill.Our Hostess did try and remedy the matter with a free coffee, so not all bad.Dear Grant G,Thank you very much for sharing your valuable feedback and we hope that we may have the opportunity to delectably serve you well again.Your feedback and comments are highly valued as it helps us enhance our services to make sure our guests get nothing but the best.Together with the rest of the team, we hope you visit us again.Graciously Yours, Prateek Kumar General Manager

This used to be one of my top restaurants in Dubai... Today that view has changed so much and sadly so... Food variety has declined together with presentation and worst of all availability.. waited 20 mins for ribs to arrive only to be told they ran out ..Dear Sir, First and foremost thank you for the constructive comment about your dinner experience at Anise.I am indeed saddened to read about the shortfall in food variety, presentation and availability you experienced. Kindly accept my most sincere apologies for this. I can certainly image the disappointment you felt during your dinner. Any decline in the quality of food presentation, selection and certainly availability is not part of our high standards we pride ourselves with at Anise. Rest assured that your feedback has already been shared with our culinary management and taken very seriously to heart.I would be delighted to hear back from you via email ([email protected]) in order to invite you back and let you experience the real culinary journey that Anise stands for.Best Regards, Andreas KoenigSenior Outlets ManagerInterContinental Dubai Festival City
