This new pizzeria is the brainchild of Emirati restaurateur Mahmood Al Khamis (the guy behind other homegrown concepts: Drop Coffee and Origami Sushi) and is promising pizza lovers an “out of this world” experience. Moon Slice’s pride and joy is its Naples-style pizza base and instead of just water, milk is added to the dough, which is then left to ferment for 48 hours before being shaped, topped, and fired in the custom Italian oven at 380°C. The result? A thin, crispy, flavoursome base. Menu highlights include the diavola: a spice-packed pizza featuring wagyu carpaccio, spicy meatballs and olive aioli; the frutto di mare that comes topped with both shrimp and octopus carpaccio, fontina cheese and a tangy barbecue aioli; and the MS – a truffle-tastic pizza of pecorino cheese, truffle paste, truffle foam and grated truffle.

Ever wonder what Dubai was like in the 1960s? Consider Al Fanar a time machine. Named for the kerosene lamps that used to light the heritage mud-packed homes, this Festival City restaurant serves traditional Emirati cuisine, just like how grandma used to make it. Al Fanar is particularly popular with locals who enjoy leisurely feasts in the cushioned, majlis-style tents that flap in the canal-side breeze. And keep an eye out for the pair of camels, a Bedouin tending his goats, and the tree growing in an inner stone courtyard – fake, yes, but still all good fun.
