A Satwa fixture with pavement tables, known for shawarma, manakish and fresh juices. It is the kind of place people have been coming to since long before Dubai looked like it does now.
What it costs: AED 10–25 for a full plate.
What to order: chicken shawarma with garlic sauce, and a fresh cocktail juice.
Our advice: sit outside in the cooler months and watch the street. This is Dubai without any polish on it.
