Lunch at Fujairah

The other weekend a cousin of mine called up from the high seas and I got to know that he has anchored his tanker at Fujairah. We thought that this was a good opportunity of perking up the otherwise dull Saturday and therefore off we went to Fujairah for a drive. It takes about 2 hours from our house and the road is smooth. The final portion of the journey is good especially when you are winding your way through the barren hills.
Finally we reached Fujairah City, a neat and clean place without the hustle and bustle of Dubai. We spotted him waiting for us in front of the Lulu Hypermarket and there were only two items in the agenda with him. Eat and Gossip!!
Without exploring too much we drove into Al Diar Siji Hotel which was bang in the middle of the town and we landed up having a very good gourmet experience. Vegetarians of course should avoid this place since nothing on the buffet would excite them.
The spread was fantastic in terms of international, Arabic and Indian dishes. The mezze was very good and so were the roasts. The Indian curries were reasonable and the desserts were adequate.
You should definitely make it a point to visit this place and don’t forget to come back and let me know!! Sphere: Related Content
