9 Exciting Food Experiences in Dubai - AFAR

"Founded in 2013 by two sisters to counter a celebrity-chef–driven scene, this walking tour operator connects visitors with immigrant communities across the city, offering a sense of discovery through authentic, everyday food stops. Tours such as the Little India Food Tour and the Dubai Souks and Creekside Food Walk let travelers sample hot-from-the-oil samosas, spiced karak tea, and other street and neighborhood fare that most tourists would otherwise miss." - Nicola Chilton

Dubai Travel Guide

"These food tours map Dubai's culinary scene—now frequently described as a culinary mecca—letting visitors sample sweet milky tea in souk back alleys, meat and rice pilaf, stuffed falafels, and learn the custom of making Arabic coffee while also hearing the city's history, often led by female guides." - Alison Fox Alison Fox Alison Fox is a Travel + Leisure contributor.

My husband and I really enjoyed our food tour with Ketki! We took a tour around souks of old Dubai. Ketki was so upbeat and fun to talk to! She guided us through narrow souk alleyways while telling us about history and food of old Dubai. We learned to much! It can be intimidating to go to souks by yourself as merchants can be very persistent for you to buy their goods. It can get pretty overwhelming. Ketki helped us through souks and let us try food from different local vendors. I tried some foods that I have never tried before. Ketki explained some spices and what to use them for. We took an abra boat to cross the creek in order to access other souks. It was fun! Just when you think you are done eating, we got to the restaurant with local Emirati food. We were so full and happy. We would highly recommend taking this tour!

Absolutely brilliant experience! Ketki was a superb guide who shared her knowledge of Dubai, old & new. We moved around the souks sampling delicious home grown, nostalgic dishes and hearing the wonderful stories behind them. Having lived here for 10 years it was such an experience to be taken to these hidden gems right on my doorstep. Highly recommend this tour for all.

Fifteen ladies were part of an Abu Dhabi public art and street food tour guided by Arva and Soumia. Their enthusiasm, knowledge of hidden gems, laughs, tips for trying tasty street food were wonderful and appreciated Thank you for a great time, we sure will be back to some of the authentic cuisines.

My wife and I took a tour of old Dubai with Frying Pan Adventures and we had so much fun. Arva was a fantastic guide and curated a great sampling of food from the old Dubai and old Souk areas we explored. We loved learning about Dubai's history and about its diversity of cultures. I would highly recommend Frying Pan Adventures if you are thinking of taking a guided tour while visiting Dubai!

I can highly recommend this tour! It was great to see the less discovered Dubai with a local! Farida was very knowledgeable and shared her unique experiences of growing up in Dubai and how important food is to culture. A definite highlight to our stay in Dubai! Thanks Frying Pan Adventures!!!

We booked the the culinary/cultural tour some years ago and again and this time a Dinner at an Emirati home organised by Frying Pan Adventures. We love the reliable service and the great authentic experience, it was awesome and unique. It really enhanced our vacation in Dubai, having the chance to go "off the beaten track". We highly recommend Arva's and Farida's company and you can be sure, we will book a tour again in one of our upcoming trips in Dubai.

We took the Public Art Abu Dhabi Tour and it was outstanding! Come hungry as you will be served food from around the region and see the vibrant Madinat Zayed neighborhood Each tasting is delicious as well as a speciality. Highly recommended when in Abu Dhabi

We recently did the Frying Pan Adventures Middle Eastern Food Pilgrimage - for the second time - and enjoyed it even more than the first. Farida made the evening so interesting with her local knowledge and of the food which was super tasty. Communication both before and during the walk was excellent. In fact we couldn't fault the experience at all and will definitely do another of the Frying Pan tours next time we are in Dubai.
