A
Al-Meshwar
Long the most popular eatery in town, this excellent restaurant (in a bizarre building that looks like a cross between a set from the Flintstones and a crusader castle) serves up the best Lebanese food outside of Lebanon. The appetiser plate is delicious (the spicy sausages are scrumptious!) and excellent value. Add a fattoosh salad and baba ghanooj and it's enough to fill two. Make sure to try the fresh pomegranate juice. If you're with a big group, phone ahead and order the house speciality Ouzie (a moist tender roast whole lamb with rice and pine nuts). Sit in the sheesha section downstairs – the people-watching possibilities alone make a visit worthwhile.

B
Maharath Al Bahar Cafeteria
Popular with local Emirati guys who pull up in their 4WDs and honk their horns for service, this clean cafeteria is a great place for shwarma, falafel, toasted sandwiches, wraps, burgers and fresh juices. Try the multi-coloured ‘thabakath' cocktail with layers of avocado, mango and strawberry juice.
