What restaurants offer the best cuisine in Dubai?

Dubai is a true foodie paradise, where culinary traditions from around the world converge in one place. One of the most memorable places for me was “Al Mahara” restaurant in the Burj Al Arab hotel. Getting there is an adventure in itself: you walk through an “underwater” tunnel, surrounded by a huge aquarium with exotic fish. I was captivated not only by the exquisite seafood cuisine but also by the fairytale atmosphere straight out of “One Thousand and One Nights.” If you are looking for something more authentic, “Al Fanar” offers traditional Emirati cuisine in an old Dubai atmosphere. I tried there “hari”, a tender dish of wheat and meat cooked over a slow fire, and it was a revelation for my taste buds. For lovers of panoramic views, you should visit “At.mosphere” on the 122nd floor of the Burj Khalifa, where dinner is accompanied by a breathtaking bird’s-eye view of the city.

How does public transportation operate in Dubai?

Public transportation in Dubai is a model of efficiency and modernity. The Dubai Metro is an automated, driverless system that covers the main areas of the city. I often used the metro, enjoying fast and comfortable rides. The carriages are clean, air-conditioned, and some offer beautiful city views. Buses and trams complement the metro network, providing access even to remote areas. Fares are paid using the Nol Card, which can be easily topped up at machines at stations. For a more scenic route, try the water taxi or an abra, a traditional wooden boat that will transport you across Dubai Creek in just a few minutes.

What are the medical requirements for entry into Dubai?

There are no specific medical requirements for most tourists entering Dubai. However, it is recommended to have standard vaccinations such as those for hepatitis A and B, diphtheria, tetanus, and polio. At the time of my trip, due to the COVID-19 pandemic, it was necessary to provide a negative PCR test taken no earlier than 72 hours prior to departure. I advise checking the current requirements on the official website of the UAE Ministry of Health or with your airline in advance. It is also helpful to have health insurance that covers potential medical expenses abroad.
