A Traditional Ramadan Dish: For a taste of Emirati tradition, savour Al Harees, a dish that takes centre stage during Ramadan. This slow-cooked speciality combines meat (typically chicken or lamb) with wheat and a pinch of salt, creating a wholesome and hearty dish. Traditionally prepared in clay pots, Al Harees is slow-cooked for hours until the ingredients meld into a rich, porridge-like consistency. During Ramadan, locals gather to share this communal dish, emphasizing the spirit of togetherness and the joy of breaking the fast with a dish deeply rooted in cultural heritage. This treat is available at some of the best restaurants in Sheikh Zayed Road.
