The increasingly inviting food scene in Dubai, a city famous for gold-dusted sushi, now offers Uzbeki, Syrian, Persian and other types of food you can rarely find in one place
THE WORLD EXPO
, the international fair held every five years, wrapped up its six-month run in Dubai on Thursday. In many ways, the most populous city of the United Arab Emirates was an ideal host for the expo, considering its own cultural diversity. Roughly 85% of Dubai’s population are noncitizens, making it among the most immigrant-heavy populations in the world. Like many places with large numbers of immigrants, Dubai is a dizzying mix of languages, cultures and cuisines.
On a trip last fall, it was those cuisines I was especially eager to dig into. I spent four days seeking out the city’s most interesting restaurants, assiduously avoiding the gold-dusted sushi rolls and caviar-topped pizza that are more commonly associated with this highflying city in favor of great, lesser-hyped fare: Uzbek, Syrian, Persian and hyper-regional Indian and Pakistani, among others.
