4d Street, Umm Suqeim, Dubai
Mamas in the know refer to this seaside gem as ‘the fish shack’ – literally a porter cabin perched on a bit of sand near the Umm Suqeim Fishing Harbour. There’s no extensive menu here, just the local catch of the day served with paratha bread, rice and a few bits of salady stuff on the side. Perch on plastic chairs and expect to share your leftovers with some of the neighborhoods hungry cats!
