Machboos
مجبوس
Rice is cooked in a chicken, meat or fish broth with spices and loomi, dried lime, which gives it a deep sourness, and served on one platter for the family to share. You will find it close to the kabsa of your own home, with differences of spice every Gulf table knows. Try the fish machboos at an Emirati restaurant near the sea.
Halal dining can be arranged at every hotel we recommend; tell us your preferences and we brief the chefs before you arrive.
