An authentic Arab delicacy made with wheat and meat, Harees is quite a popular street food in Dubai. Also known as Harissa in some parts of the world, Harees has a consistency between porridge and gruel, and can be distantly compared with Haleem in India. Generally a delicacy during the festivity, Harees can be enjoyed all year round, but it\u2019s consumed mainly during the holy month of Ramadan and during Arab weddings. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Looks like a Gulab Jamun, feels like a Doughnut, but is not related to either of them! Also known as Lokma, Lugaimat or Awameh, Luqaimat is a traditional Emirati dessert which is a favorite among the locals and tourists alike. Luqaimat is a crispy sweet dough ball which is soft and chewy inside. These Arabic sweet dumplings are served along honey, sugar syrup or date syrup which adds a delicious aroma and taste to the already drool worthy dessert. If you have a sweet tooth you will definitely enjoy gobbling these down. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Here comes the national drink of Dubai, Karak! Derived from its Indian counterpart of Kadak Chai or Masala Chai, Karak is not just a beverage, but an emotion! Made from tea, spices and herbs, Karak is the most widely available street food in Dubai. You can buy it from almost every roadside shop for just over AED 1 and rejuvenate yourself after visiting the many sites in our Dubai tour packages<\/a>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Madrooba is a Middle-Eastern food made from pounded rice cooked over a long period of time. It is the most nutritious street food in Dubai amongst all. The name comes from a large wooden spoon that is used to make this highly satisfying and nutritious dish. Originally a non-vegetarian delicacy, you can easily find vegetarian and even vegan variants of Madrooba in Dubai. Madrooba is popular around the holy month of Ramadan and various Middle-Eastern festivities. But, since it\u2019s a long process to cook Madrooba, this lip smacking dish can only be found at selected eateries, and is worth going through all the troubles!<\/p>\n\n\n\n Knafeh or Kunafa is also called as the queen of desserts in Dubai! Knafeh is absolutely a must try street food in Dubai. A pastry dish made from sweet cheese and coated with vermicelli, syrup and sliced pistachios, Knafeh is going to make you forget everything for a while. This gooey dessert will take you to heaven and back if you love cheese and have a sweet tooth. One of the most delicious dishes in Dubai, Knafeh can be easily found in most of the cafes and food joints in the city. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Manakish is another popular street food in Dubai that one must try at least once. It\u2019s Middle-East\u2019s very own Pizza! Manakish is relished by the locals and the tourists alike in Dubai. It is a dough topped with thyme, cheese or ground meat and is very similar to Pizza. Slice it, fold it and eat it just like a Pizza. You will definitely enjoy this authentic Lebanese snack in the streets of Dubai.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Oman Chips Roll is arguably the most famous street food in Dubai. The Oman Chips Roll is nothing but a roll with layers of cheese spread over it and filled with Oman Chips in it! This simple yet delicious street food is especially popular among the school going children and the local population of Dubai. This hyped street food is the go to snack choice for road trips and can be found almost everywhere in Dubai, from malls to local groceries and even on school canteen\u2019s menu! <\/p>\n\n\n\n We are definitely drooling over these, what about you?<\/p>\n\n\n\n No matter when you visit Dubai or for what reason you travel to Dubai, head out and treat yourself to the street food available, as you simply cannot get this experience anywhere else in the world!<\/p>\n\n\n\n Dubai Visa Online<\/a> | 14 days Dubai Visa<\/a> | 30 days Dubai Visa<\/a> | 60 days Dubai Visa<\/a> | Dubai Transit Visa<\/a> | UAE Visa<\/a> | Singapore Visa<\/a> | Malaysia Visa<\/a> | Thailand Visa<\/a> | Sri Lanka Visa<\/a> | US Visa<\/a> | UK Visa<\/a> | Schengen Visa<\/a> | Canada Visa<\/a> | Australia Visa<\/a> | New Zealand Visa<\/a> | France Visa<\/a> | Italy Visa<\/a> | Turkey Visa Online<\/a> | Philippines Visa<\/a> | Cambodia Visa Online<\/a> | Vietnam Visa Online<\/a> | Oman Visa<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n Dubai\nTour Packages<\/a> | Singapore\nTour Packages<\/a> | Thailand\nTour Packages<\/a> | Malaysia\nTour Packages<\/a> | Sri\nLanka Tour Packages<\/a> | US\nTour Packages<\/a> | United\nKingdom Tour Packages<\/a> | South\nAfrica Tour Packages<\/a> | Europe\nTour Packages<\/a> | Bali\nTour Packages<\/a> | Mauritius\nTour Packages<\/a> | Maldives\nTour Packages<\/a> | Cordelia Cruise\nPackages<\/a> |<\/p>\n\n\n\n India\nTour Packages<\/a> | Goa\nTour Packages<\/a> | Kerala\nTour Packages<\/a> | Leh Ladakh Tour Packages<\/a> | Himachal\nTour Packages<\/a> | Andaman\nTour Packages<\/a> | Rajasthan\nTour Packages<\/a> | Uttarakhand Tour Packages<\/a> | Jammu\nand Kashmir Tour Packages<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n Honeymoon\nPackages<\/a> | Adventure\nPackages<\/a> | Visa\non Arrival Packages<\/a> | Family\nPackages<\/a> | Romantic\nPackages<\/a> | Weekend\nGetaways Packages<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n Mumbai\nDubai Flights<\/a> | Delhi\nDubai Flights<\/a> | Bangalore\nDubai Flights<\/a> | Chennai\nDubai Flights<\/a> | Kochi\nDubai Flights<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n Pune\nBangalore Flights<\/a> | Chennai\nDelhi Flights<\/a> | Bangalore\nChennai Flights<\/a> | Mumbai\nDelhi Flights<\/a> | Bangalore\nHyderabad Flights<\/a> | Ahmedabad\nGoa Flights<\/a> | Mumbai\nKolkata Flights<\/a> | Hyderabad\nDelhi Flights<\/a> | Bangalore\nGoa Flights<\/a> | Mumbai Goa Flights<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n Delhi\nDubai Flights<\/a> | Delhi\nBangkok Flights<\/a> | Delhi Toronto Flights<\/a> | Mumbai\nDubai Flights<\/a> | Delhi\nSingapore Flights<\/a> |Delhi\nLondon Flights<\/a> | Delhi\nKathmandu Flights<\/a> | Mumbai\nLondon Flights<\/a> | Chennai\nSingapore Flights<\/a> | Mumbai\nSingapore Flights<\/a> | Delhi\nNew York Flights<\/a> |Kolkata\nBangkok Flights<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Food is an important part of the Emirati culture.
