Al Ustad Special Kabab

Al Ustad Special Kabab

Bur Dubai's Iranian kebab house has been grilling since 1978, its walls papered with photographs of the customers who have eaten here.

Skewers of lamb and chicken arrive with saffron rice, flatbread, yoghurt dips and raw onion; the menu has barely changed in decades.

Local tip: It fills up fast around 8pm and takes no bookings, so arrive early or expect to wait outside on the street.
