Milas - Fusion Emirati cuisine

Image
This is one the the most classy and upmarket Emirati restaurant that I've come across in recent times.  It is located in the Denim district in Dubai Mall, and they invited me to try out their food.  As soon as you enter, you'll see the lovely decor - the chandeliers, the mirrors - it's glittery, though not tacky. They also have a customized stand for cutlery, as well as one for the menu which is on an iPad.  They got us the complimentary bread and the chickpeas while we decided what to order from their vast and tempting menu.  We started with the kashk badmejan . This is a paste of eggplant and chick peas mixed with saffron, onion, and kish. It is topped with crispy fried onion. I took one bite of this and totally loved it, but my friend didn't like it at all. I think you need to have a taste developed for this one, and then only you'll like it. The next item was the Pizza Mbahar Deyay . It wasn't exactly a pizza, but something like a calzo...
