The choice of cuisine available in Dubai means that you could satisfy your hunger with food from a different part of the globe every night for months. You could be in India for breakfast, Germany for lunch and Polynesia for dinner, all in one day. But as different kinds of food become trendy, and fads come and go, Lebanese food has been a mainstay of the Dubai restaurant scene for years. Lebanese food is often loosely classed as 'Arabic' food, yet this term is misleading.
Most Arabic food eaten in Dubai, and through most of the Gulf, is based on Lebanese-style cuisine.
It is the most popular of Arabic foodstyles. We had lunch at Al Basha Lebanese restaurant at the Metropolitan Resort and Beach Club in Jumeirah and left satisfied. We had a choice of hot and cold starters and grilled, fresh seafood, all of which were extremely tasty. The atmosphere is relaxed and you don't have to go there for a meal. You can stand at the bar and enjoy the live music, or just order coffee and shisha.
