Hi,

I haven’t been to an Iftar in Dubai and would appreciate any recommendations for a good Iftar and maybe ones that I should avoid.

Thanks

There was a great spread and The Address Hotel in Marina Mall. It was 150D I think. I think reservations were required though.

Hi

Sherry has started a thread on ramadaan buffets which hopefully will give you some ideas:

Ramadan Buffets

Pamela is also organising an EF iftar so may just give you an opportunity to try one out

Hi alo,

Before I went to the Blue Orange Ramadan Tent at the Westin Hotel Mina Seyahi and it was amazing, brilliant location, great food spread etc.

This year on their website the Iftar Buffet is AED 180 so if it's anything like before I would highly recommend it!

Went to Iftar (well it was just after Iftar) at Celsius at Raddison Royal Hotel on Sh. Zayed, the selection was great (international but I'd say mostly Arabic) for only 135dhs. I feel like the Radisson doesn't get enough attention but I love the restaurants there...
