Dubai

The city's best tables, markets and bars, chosen by the writers who live there.

Street foodWhere Dubai actually eats — the Deira cafeterias, the Kerala mess halls, the Pakistani grill rooms and the Filipino bakeries where the city's workforce lines up. The real food city behind the Michelin stars, where a meal still costs less than a taxi ride.
