Dubai, UAE - 20 march, 2024 - In the bustling streets of Bur Dubai, a culinary landmark stands tall, carrying with it the flavors and traditions of Persian cuisine. Al Ustad Special Kabab, a family-run eatery, has been a beloved destination for both locals and tourists since its inception in 1978. It's not just a restaurant; it's a piece of Dubai's history, a testament to the city's rich multicultural tapestry.
As part of our Dubai Culinary Delights program, the DXB News Network team had the privilege of visiting and filming at Al Ustad Special Kabab for Episode 2. Our experience at this hidden gem was nothing short of extraordinary, and we're excited to share it with our viewers.
Al Ustad Special Kabab is widely known for its authentic Persian kababs, which are a delight for all meat lovers. The restaurant prides itself on serving some of the best fresh kebabs in Dubai, with generous portion sizes and prices that are very reasonable by Dubai standards. The menu features a variety of kebabs and hearty cuts, perfectly spiced and served with mouthwatering salads and sauces. The steaming zafran (saffron) rice accompanying the joujeh kababs is a must-try, offering a taste of Iran right here in Dubai.
The ambiance of Al Ustad Special Kabab adds to its charm. With quaint lamps, chirping birds, and comfortable seating, the restaurant provides a fulfilling dining experience that goes beyond just food. The walls are adorned with photographs of Bollywood and Iranian celebrities, royalty, and the many satisfied diners who have visited over the years. These photographs, along with the collection of currencies under the glass tabletops, tell the story of the restaurant's long and cherished legacy.
The founder, Mohammed Al Ansari, opened the doors to his restaurant in 1978, coinciding with the emergence of the Dubai World Trade Centre. Bringing his native specialty of Iranian Kebabs to the United Arab Emirates, he created a simple yet delectable menu. Over the years, Al Ustad Special Kabab has become one of Dubai's most sought-after 'Hidden Gems.' The restaurant's philosophy of simplicity and human connection has remained unchanged, even as Dubai has rapidly evolved around it.
The eatery has been frequented by Dubai VIPs, celebrities from around the world, and countless locals and tourists. It has been featured in numerous foodie tours and culinary guides, making it an essential stop for anyone looking to explore Dubai's culinary scene. Despite its fame, Al Ustad Special Kabab has stayed true to its roots, relying on word of mouth rather than advertising gimmicks.
In an ever-changing city known for its skyscrapers and luxury, Al Ustad Special Kabab stands out for its rustic charm and legendary status. It's a place that reminds us of the power of good food and warm hospitality. As part of the Dubai Culinary Delights program, we are proud to showcase this iconic restaurant and share its story with our global audience.
Stay tuned for Episode 2 of Dubai Culinary Delights, where we take you on a journey through the flavors and history of Al Ustad Special Kabab, a true culinary delight in the heart of Dubai.
