Taste of Dubai

From 11 to 14 March you'll have the chance to sample the culinary delights of Dubai at the Taste of Dubai Festival 2009. A large number of restaurants will present samples of their menus, and gourmet food producers will give you the option to try their products before you buy. Moreover, a number of workshops and tastings is organised, such as winetastings, a workshop by celebrity chef Gary Rhodes and much more.

It sounds like culinary heaven. Will it really be that good...? Mr. & Mrs. R are going to find out. We will torture ourselves with the long drive from Muscat to Dubai, and report back to you afterwards. What were the absolute highlights and what could be missed. And most important: should you have been there? We'll let you know.
