Milas may serve traditional Emirati specialties, but its vision for the cuisine takes on a modern twist – as does its stylish décor, with polished wooden tables that reflect bursts of violet neon lights.
This is the place to try modern interpretations of classic regional dishes, as well as local twists on international favourites: grilled shrimp, hares (boiled, cracked or coarsely-ground wheat served with meat or chicken), spicy fish platters, kebabs (like yoghurt and saffron-marinated chicken); crispy haloumi cheese and falafel, Emirati hummus with meat (nakhi), plus pizzas and pastas topped with Arabic ingredients and desserts such as sticky lugaymat (sweet fried dumplings). Enjoy it all in the bustling Village area of The Dubai Mall, near the ice rink.
