Sometimes, it can feel gnarly and impossible to scour the internet for some darn good baba ghanoush. Living in a city with around 13,000 restaurants often means you’d have to do the legwork to find the “next best thing.” Between the limitless sushi bars, Mediterranean dining, and other cuisines available, it’s easy to forget that a trip to a classic Middle Eastern bistro can be exactly what you need.
And while there are definitely no shortage of options, there’s only one particular vibrant restaurant that stands out. Once you’ve dabbled in its creamy hummus and fresh oven-baked bread, you’d be begging for a second bite–actually, maybe a fifth too. The place we’re talking about, you ask? None other than Amaseena.
It seems that even with an insatiable appetite, Amaseena, nestled in the brimming Ritz Carlton in Jumeirah, has already curated a selection of platters to ensure each bite is a flavourful bomb–much can be expected since It’s just released its new á la carte menu.
Luckily, for those who are just out and about by the sun-soaked Jumeirah, Amaseena’s prime location begs you to explore its Bedouin tents while indulging in its ultimate crowd pleaser of the season, the Cold & Hot Mezzeh.
With an assortment of finger-licking-worthy smoky baba ghanoush, muhammara dips, and savoury dishes such as the Goat Cheese Pie and even the cult must-have Tahini-sauced Chicken Shawarma, it’s no wonder Amaseena has become the restaurantto be at.
And because Amaseena never settles for less, they’ve paired their menu with the epitome of Arabian leisure: a Shisha & Mezzeh package (starting at AED 170). Perfectly designed for those ready to unwind on majlis-style sofas by 7 PM, it’s the kind of indulgence that makes any evening feel unapologetic.
