The raqaq, khameer and chebab with cheese and date syrup arrive on one tray, which is the sensible order. It is a mall restaurant, so expect families and a wait at weekend lunch.

Al Farwania Restaurant (Beach Road)
- Open
- 6am to midnight daily
- Where
- Al Farwania Restaurant, Jumeirah Road opposite Dubai Public Library, Umm Suqeim 2, Dubai
Three griddles work the front counter here, so ask for regag with egg and cheese rather than the biryani the menu leads with. Parking on Beach Road is chaos at sunset.

HumYum (Beach Road
- Open
- 9am to 3am daily
- Where
- HumYum, 712 Jumeirah Road, opposite Advanced Radiology Centre, Umm Suqeim, Dubai
Rigag starts at a couple of dirhams, and the version with Chips Oman is the one to get. Prices run higher than neighbouring cafeterias, and the Kite Beach booth is a smaller operation.

Arabian Tea House (Al Fahidi)
- Open
- 7am to 11pm daily
- Where
- Al Fahidi Street, Bastakiya, opposite Musalla Post Office, Bur Dubai
Breakfast is the reason to come: regag with egg and cheese, gahwa and dates in the blue courtyard. Prices are several times what a Beach Road stall charges, and tables go quickly at weekends.
