This holy month in 2023, Dubai and Abu Dhabi will serve International iftars.

With a lot of foreign restaurants participating in Ramadan celebrations this year, the demographic diversity of the United Arab Emirates has helped make a broad range of cuisines popular and readily accessible in the Emirates.

This lovely restaurant behind The Abu Dhabi Edition hotel serves soup (daily selections) followed by Greek salad with crumbled, barrel-aged feta or charred corn and tomato salad with lemon and paprika dressing to break the fast.
