One of Dubai’s favourite restaurants is a tiny hole-in-the-wall establishment with plastic seats and metal tables, despite the city’s abundance of Michelin-starred restaurants, champagne brunches, and other high-end dining alternatives.
Small, family-run Pakistani eatery Ravi is a part of the South Asian labour force that helped create Dubai. But throughout the years, it has established itself as a mainstay of the culinary scene in a city that often favours anything flashy and extravagant.
In the Satwa neighbourhood of the United Arab Emirates, which at the time was a sandy region filled with large trucks and little construction firms, the restaurant first opened its doors in 1978. In the 1970s, the emirate was mostly arid country with a sparse, low-built skyline facing the Gulf.
Pakistani Eateries In The UAE That You Really Must Go To
We wanted to offer our favourite 13 eateries where Pakistani expatriates may have some delectable remembrances of home in honour of the 71st anniversary of Pakistan’s independence. Why not take the family out and get something to eat? Here is our guide to Pakistani restaurants this week.
Just so you know, the order of this list is random. We adore everyone of them equally!
Cricket Bar B&B
You need look no farther than B&B if you want Nihari and mouth-melting meat. The greatest Nihari in Dubai is reportedly served at BnB Cricket Bar, which is close to Lamcy Plaza and more recently in Motor City. In addition, they provide excellent Halwa Puri, which is a favourite “weekend brunch” back home.
Bar B Q Tonight
Readers of Gulf News have given Bar B Q high praise and asked that it be included to the list. This Pakistani restaurant offers an open buffet format and features a wide variety of cuisines. No matter whatever dish you choose—Shami kebab, Reshmi kebab, Malai tikka, or fried fish—it will be of excellent quality and delightful flavour. Its chicken biryani is also well-regarded. Their assistance is kind and helpful. Don’t forget to finish your meal with some of their Shahi halwa, which is reportedly sugar-free so even those with diabetes may enjoy the dish.
Location: Al Hudaiba, 2nd December Street Daily from 12.30pm to 12.30am, varied prices
The Kebab Stand
I like the Kebab Shop because of their amazing Kebab Masala, which is nestled away under the menu’s section for trademark curries and is available in four different districts of Dubai. The Kebab Masala is a thick dish that tastes best when served with warm tandoori rotis and raita and is created with juicy seekh kababs (kebabs of minced beef that have been barbecued).
Sports City, Silicon Oasis, Media City, and Discovery Gardens are the locations. The cost is Dh75 for two persons.
By Nayaab Handi
Without Biryani, what use is a list of Pakistani eateries? The Pak Lyari’s Mutton biryani is the undisputed champion in my book among the various establishments that have made claims to provide the greatest biryani in the UAE. With just one mouthful of their mutton biryani, Pak Lyari, a hidden gem in Meena Bazaar, transports you to your own country. If you don’t like mutton, they also have excellent chicken Biryani. Naturally, a dinner wouldn’t be complete without dessert; Zafrani Kheer.
Meena Bazaar and Naif are two places 50 dirhams for two individuals.
With these men, I’m not sure where to start or where to stop. I struggle to decide what to have since their menu has so many fantastic selections. Fortunately, they provide a buffet, which I generally always choose since it’s better to have a little bit of everything wonderful than a lot of one fantastic item!
Don’t even consider coming there if you want to lose weight. The buffet includes a variety of BBQed meats, curries, seafood, and even Chinese cuisine. The large BBQ grill that is placed on your table as part of their buffet is the finest part since it allows you to enjoy scorching hot food without getting up.
Al Satwa location Buffet prices range from Dh54 to Dh74 per person.
Spinzer
There are several Pakistani cuisines served at Spinzer, including bun kababs, curries, and BBQ. However, it is due of their Kebab rolls that this restaurant made it into our list. Fast meal wraps with a range of chicken and mutton flavours, kebab rolls are the counterpart in Indian cuisine. They may also be ordered in a chapati instead of a deep-fried paratha if you’re aiming to keep in shape. Don’t forget to request more chutney as a general rule to truly give those rolls the extra zing!
Meena Bazaar in Pak Lyari
Without Biryani, what use is a list of Pakistani eateries? The Pak Lyari’s Mutton biryani is the undisputed champion in my book among the various establishments that have made claims to provide the greatest biryani in the UAE. With just one mouthful of their mutton biryani, Pak Lyari, a hidden gem in Meena Bazaar, transports you to your own country. If you don’t like mutton, they also have excellent chicken Biryani.
