This can be seen not only in the people living there and the shops, but also in some of the best restaurants in Dubai. Some of the finest restaurants and chefs have taken their business to Dubai to provide visitors and inhabitants alike with a culinary experience beyond what they've ever imagined before.<br /><br />At JW's Steakhouse, they've taken the traditional steakhouse approach and put a luxurious spin on it. Head chef Luc Bonnaz has captured the essence and simplicity of traditional steakhouse food and added a sense of luxury. The types of food include classic Rib Eye Steak to various types of seafood. Located in the prestigious JW Marriott Hotel, the surroundings and the décor provide an inviting ambiance that is hard to match. A main course will cost around 40 USD, putting this restaurant in the high price category.<br /><br />If you want a culinary journey that will have you experiencing new and exciting flavors then the Fire & Ice restaurant at the Raffles Hotel is the place to visit. Head Chef Cedric Darthial explores the different flavors of the world in a mixture of high end dishes and simple but delicious alternatives. It can easily be called an exciting dining experience, and one you should not miss out on when visiting Dubai. The restaurant is very pricey but overall it is money well spent.<br /><br />If you are a fan of Japanese cuisine, and sushi in particular, then you should not miss out on Nobu, undoubtedly one of the best restaurants in Dubai. Head Chef Nobu Matsuhisa has expanded his very famous restaurant to Dubai, giving his visitors the complete sushi experience filled with Chef Nobu's own signature dishes. To get a table at the restaurant there is up to a two month waiting list, a great indicator of the popularity and quality of the food offered. A set menu for two people will cost in the vicinity of 100 USD, putting it in the upper mid price range. Located in Atlantis on the world-famous landmark, "The Palm Jumeira" the trip to the restaurant is an experience in itself.<br /><br />If you want to splash your cash and find one of the more expensive and best restaurants in Dubai then the Al Mahara restaurant is the place for you. The restaurant can boast several prestigious awards for its excellent cuisine, and the seafood menu is exquisite. You can dine while you watch tropical fish in the beautiful floor to ceiling aquarium. Lunch starts at 45 USD per person, and dinner at 70 USD per person. Located at the Burj Al Arab Hotel it is easy to find and most likely worth every single penny.<br /><br />At the Radisson Blu Hotel (on Dubai Deira Creek) you'll find Shabestan. This restaurant stands above the rest when it comes to the Persian cuisine in Dubai. The amazing flavors of the kitchen blend in to a great mixture of food that will leave you wanting more. The prices are in the mid to high range, but the excellent food along with the great Persian influenced atmosphere makes it worth it all.<br /><br />Article Source: http://EzineArticles.com/7034933</div>

Art, culture, and history - these are all things which we will think of in connection to Italy eventually, but there is one aspect of Italy in particular which we associate automatically to Italy and that's excellent cuisine.<br /><br />People visiting Tuscany will be excited about sampling the delicious gourmet food we know will be on offer to us. However, with so many restaurants in this region (around 1,800), it's difficult to know where to start. To help you on your way, here are our 5 favourite restaurants in Tuscany.<br /><br />Cantine Bernardini in Lucca is known for being one of the best restaurants in the area. Located just off the main streets, Cantine Bernardini is a stylishly designed restaurant with a modern flair with many references to 16th century Tuscany within its design. The food here is not typically Tuscan, but what customers will be provided with are exquisitely cooked dishes which are flavored to a high standard and presented with a great deal of artistry.<br /><br />The waiters here are well educated on wide range of wines and can advise you on the best choices to suit your meal, making the flavors truly come alive. This isn't an ideal restaurant for families, but is a great place for couples or groups thanks to its relaxed atmosphere and decadent food. Considering the standard of the cuisine, the prices are quite moderate and this is food definitely not to be missed.<br /><br />For the ultimate foodie experience on your Tuscany vacation, visit La Bucacciain Cortona where you will be spoilt with gorgeous, gourmet food, a fantastic atmosphere and a stunning environment. Providing its customers with a great selection of Chef's specials and traditional Tuscan dishes; La Bucaccia serves only the freshest food, infused with fantastic flavor combinations. This is quite a small restaurant so provides a fantastic, intimate setting but you will never feel rushed here so you are free to thoroughly enjoy your meal and the hospitality which is provided by the staff. The restaurant is exceptionally easy to find and for those looking for brilliant cuisine, it is a must for your vacation in Tuscany. However, the prices are a little higher than some may care for but with food this good, it is definitely worth it.<br /><br />Located within Florence, Il Profeta offers a fantastic mix of great food and hospitality. This is the best place for those who are big eaters or who simply wish to indulge in as much Tuscan cuisine as possible as the portions here are quite large - especially in terms of the steaks and pasta dishes. With a great selection of wines and a team of waiters happy to provide you with their best knowledge on what meals will work best according to your tastes, you are sure to not have a bad meal here. Some of the menu highlights include fantastic olive oil to accompany the grilled breads, which are serves at the start of the meal and the 100% decadent chocolate dessert. The menu varies from heavy to light meals, but this is Italian cuisine at its best.<br /><br />When in Pisa, the Hostaria Le Repubbliche Marinare is the ideal restaurant for those looking for a great balance between food, service, price and atmosphere. Perfect for families and those on a budget or looking to splash out, this traditionally designed restaurant is the perfect location to spoil yourself whilst in Tuscany. With highlights such as beautifully made pizzas with prices starting at a low 6 Euros to decadent desserts such as tiramisu and cheesecake, this is great for those who are eager to try some new Italian foods or simply order some classics. There is a chance that you may need to make a booking here, but it is worth the wait.<br /><br />When we think of Italian foods, one of the most common dishes we will often think of is pizza. For pizza lovers visiting Tuscany, Gusta Pizza in Florence is the ideal restaurant for you. With a simple menu of up to 7 pizzas, there are no wild or unusual pizzas to try here but what the restaurant lacks in choice it makes up for in flavors and quality. Gusta Pizza uses only the freshest ingredients, rolling all their pizza dough by hand and with this fresh, traditional method of making pizza, you are provided with intense and high quality flavors sure to rival any pizza you have eaten in the past. With prices that go no higher than 9 Euros for a large pizza, this is a great place for those on a budget or those with families and picky eaters!<br /><br />Article Source: http://EzineArticles.com/<br /></div>

In fact, you can find almost any type of cuisine you're looking for. From American, Chinese, Japanese to Persian, breakfast, lunch or dinner, you're never far from a home-cooked meal when you're dining in Kuwait.<br /><br />One of the best restaurants in Kuwait is the 'Sunny Side Up', a popular breakfast restaurant that just opened in November of 2011. As you can probably guess from the name, the menu features a wide variety of eggs dishes.<br /><br />Most of the menu selections are American and one of the favorites among the regulars is the Turkey Club sandwich, a real Dagwood sandwich stacked with slices of thinly sliced turkey, boiled eggs, bacon, lettuce, tomato and mustard. A favorite breakfast item is the tall stack of pancakes served with real maple syrup. Sunny Side Up is located in Al Saqaran Complex.<br /><br />Another popular breakfast restaurant is the Living Room Lounge, located in the Marina Mall.

Be sure to try the Mushroom Risotto or the Nino Pasta while you're there.<br /><br />If you're visiting Kuwait then you probably want to try some traditional Kuwaiti food and the best place in town is the Freej Sowaileh diner.

Restaurant Dishes in Durham

<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh2ZU_4vC9dYEjBbBfGdkqnvj-OAJdFXiHf8gMjy-ic9niAjilkfmDz8jXl-ORhic3Kf1KSnL2bkFhQjmiTM2U1vXgSQ0pqWh5ON-hsrJOz4Ag9FmbJ0Nek2HDMOxoCJiCpPmmirR3gBu4/s350/1567.jpg" /></div>
<br />
Are you visiting Durham? Did you just move there? Are you a long-time
 resident who is looking for exciting new restaurants? Well, here is the
 definitive review of the dishes you have to eat in Durham, NC!<br />
<ol>
<li>
<b>Hush puppies from Allen and Sons Barbeque (in Chapel Hill)</b>

Okay, so maybe I cheated on this one, but it was hard not to put the 
whole menu on this review. None of the hush puppies I have tasted in the
 area (and that's a lot, if you think about how many restaurants claim 
to be the authoritative source on NC barbeque) can even come close to 
these. They are just sweet enough and slightly corn-flavored, and the 
outside is seasoned and fried to crunchy perfection. Even though the 
restaurant would probably win my barbeque award just from this dish, 
they do not slack on the ribs or pork barbeque either.</li>
<br />
<li>
<b>Ginger habañero chicken wings from Oval Park Grille</b>

Oval Park Grille is a generally quiet sports bar with an expansive, open
 feel to it. Here's the twist: it markets itself as being "Local as 
Heck." On the menu you will find salads from Tiny Farms, a year-round 
farm in the area, and fish caught in North Carolina. The food is all 
very tasty, although the flavor combinations are possibly too creative, 
but the wings are truly amazing. I would recommend the ginger-habañero 
sauce because it takes the idea of chicken to a whole new level. You 
will not be able to put these down.</li>
<br />
<li>
<b>Macaroni and Cheese Gratin from Watts Grocery</b>

Every time I go here I cannot help but order this dish, even though it 
is way too big to be an appetizer. Something about it being a gratin and
 served on a skillet makes it just irresistible. The top cheese is just 
cooked enough to have a thin crust, and the inner macaroni and cheese is
 extremely soft and flavorful. As much as I try to share this with 
assorted friends and family, I end up just eating the whole thing 
myself.</li>
<br />
<li>
<b>Carnitas Burrito from Chubby's Tacos</b>

This restaurant as a whole is almost perfect. The service is fast, the 
ambience is casual, and chips are always brought to the table for free. I
 especially like their collection of spicy salsas. I would recommend 
anything on the menu, but I generally eat the Carnitas Burrito, which is
 stuffed with meat and rice and hot sauce. Unlike many burritos I have 
had in Durham, it does not taste overly greasy or too heavy.</li>
<br />
<li>
<b>Lamb and Sausage Pizza from Pizzeria Toro</b>

Unfortunately, I cannot give a completely favorable review of this 
restaurant. In my view it is too loud and constantly too crowded. Of 
course, this is good for the restaurant but no for the customer. There 
is a 20 minute wait on Thursday night, and that is to get a seat at the 
same table as someone else. The service is also a little slow. The 
pizza, however, is wonderful! The flavor combinations are very creative 
but always turn out just right, and the pizza is cooked in a modern 
style brick oven. The food comes out hot and I have no complaints for 
this dish, although I have some for the restaurant.</li>

Should Be on Your Short-List Of Best Restaurants In North Texas

<div style="text-align: justify;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<img border="0" height="207" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEizZgeySN27k2qZsWlyOSh07uZF8iY-6xKFxAEH0nIdtahsik96wJQ2yHUakm2_jXppP_LAuXdSA0AvcsiWpWQfEi3gaVlfSpQ_yg8EdRS5L5OPBqCKU7EkJn5dwwSsu36zqD25Z70eYk9R/s400/OP.jpg" width="400" /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
There is something to be said for visiting a five-star restaurant
 when the city is in the clutches of an ice storm: The other scheduled 
patrons have cancelled their reservations to hide under quilted bed 
covers nursing a hot toddy; and so the chef and his staff, having braved
 the ghastly weather themselves to show up valiantly for work, will be <i>very</i>
 happy indeed to see you there, and they will do everything short of 
performing headstands to express their gratitude, serving you 
outstanding meals with exemplary service.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Such was my visit, on a blustery winter day this December, to <i>Ocean Prime</i>,
 the elegant 2006 Cameron Mitchell creation on Cedar Springs Road across
 from the Crescent Court Hotel on the northern end of downtown Dallas. 
The staff was so happy to see us, and our praise after an outstanding 
meal was such, that while we were drinking our coffees Executive Chef 
Eugenio Reyes himself came out personally to take a bow and chat with us
 for a few minutes. He is a gifted artist.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
It was clear upon 
arrival that my dining partner and I had the place to ourselves. There 
was one other table, this one with five guests, far across the room. My 
host kindly picked a table far from the door and any errant blasts of 
icy wind that might have eluded the doorman. Our server was Shelby 
Griffing, a five-year veteran of <i>Ocean Prime</i> and a knowledgeable guide to dining there.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
When
 Shelby suggested that the chef was excited about a dish of lollipop 
lamb chops (the popular American name for lamb rib chops with the bone 
frenched), my ears perked up. On such a day, do you really want to order
 off the menu? After all, the chef is all alone in the kitchen and is 
dying to show off his favorite dish. Why disappoint him -- or yourself? 
Under such conditions, go with the will of the restaurant. One ought to 
listen carefully and, unless you are allergic to the special, you are 
wise to select it. The chef, under these circumstances, is going to make
 an extra effort to shine. Indeed, many years of high-end restaurant 
dining have taught me that the best meals are to be had on those 
occasions when one can "bond," so to speak, with the kitchen staff. 
Never take good cooking for granted. Always listen. My father once 
remarked to me decades ago that he could always assess a man's character
 best by watching the way he treated waiters. So it is.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
To be 
frank, I am not particularly fond of lamb, in spite of my years in North
 Africa, because it takes special skill to cook it properly and it is 
such a staple in so much of the world that its preparation is often 
indifferent. Too often, also, "lamb" really means "mutton." Mutton is 
often stringy, tough, and unpalatable, the sort of meat that makes 
Australians in the outback grouchy.  I usually go to <i>Ocean Prime</i> to eat fish, since there are so few really good fish restaurants in Dallas. I am partial to <em>Ocean Prime's </em>blackened Redfish, which they serve with cornspoon bread and a jalapeño corn tartar. I have ordered it a half-dozen times.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
But
 there was something about Shelby's description of the lollipop lamb 
chops that made them irresistible, and both my lunch partner and I 
ordered them. To whet my palate, I chose as an appetizer a trio of 
simply outstanding Vietnamese <i>gambas</i>, or giant shrimp, served in the traditional tomato sauce with a bit of Tabasco.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
And
 then came those lollipop lamb chops, five little ones served piping 
hot. We were not disappointed. To begin with, the ingredients were 
absolutely the best, before Eugenio Reyes performed his magic in the 
kitchen. These were the finest, most tender lamb chops wild and wooly 
Oregon has ever produced (as good as, if not better than, those from 
Colorado, which is the usual venue for the finest American lamb). It is 
so often true, in cuisine as in other endeavors in life, that the best 
ingredients are more than half the battle. But the way Chef Reyes 
prepared these chops was extraordinary and, in my experience, unique.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Instead
 of the traditional lamb recipe, or a variation of it, in which they are
 crusted with rosemary and salt, these were served in a very delicate 
and slightly sweet raisin-based clear reduction. Absolutely out of this 
world! The lamb chops were served with tiny potatoes the size of 
marbles. I have never had lamb with a hint of sugar or raisins before, 
except perhaps once or twice in Morocco. It was a treat, and one I shall
 remember.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
I asked Chef Reyes afterwards why these lollipop chops 
are not on the regular menu, and he responded quite reasonably that it 
is simply not possible to get the desired quality of chops on a daily 
basis (though they are generally available) and that, too, respecting 
the gastronomic leanings of his Texas patrons, lamb is not something 
people in Dallas want to order every day, no matter how good it is. I 
think this is wise.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
We finished our luncheon with a magnificent 
and very generous homemade crème brûlée with berries, rich vanilla 
custard enclosed in an armor of caramelized sugar. I then had an 
espresso with lemon peel.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Executive Chef Eugenio Reyes is a man of great culinary talent. Before he assumed the helm at <i>Ocean Prime</i>,
 he was sous-chef here but with regular travel also to other Cameron 
Mitchell eateries across the nation to train staff. He began his career 
in Columbus, Ohio, at Mitchell's <i>Ocean Club</i> restaurant. After 
leaving his native Mexico years ago, Reyes began life in American 
kitchens at the very bottom of the ladder, as a dishwasher, dreaming of 
the day when he could become a cook himself. Over a two-decade career, 
he has learned more and more.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
I generally avoid chains, but 
Cameron Mitchell's ten locations are not really part of a chain in the 
sense that each restaurant has been tailored to its host city. Mitchell 
is planning to open his eleventh restaurant, this one in hard-to-please 
Beverly Hills, California, in early 2014.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Cameron Mitchell's public relations team has stated that "<i>Ocean Prime</i>
 is the culmination of a creative exercise we started in 2006 to define 
the best in culinary, beverage, service and atmosphere" in Dallas, and I
 think it's fair to say that they have succeeded.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<i>Ocean Prime</i>
 is at 2101 Cedar Springs Road in Dallas (75201) at the corner of Pearl 
and across from the Crescent Court Hotel. Even on days when the weather 
is bad, it is always wise to make a reservation: (214) 965-0440.</div>

10 Most Expensive Restaurants

<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; color: #555555; font-family: Verdana, Geneva, sans-serif; font-size: 12px; line-height: 1.3em; margin-bottom: 10px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
I
 am sure everybody around here loves to eat. But do you love to eat 
fancy? If so, how fancy can you possibly get? This particular list talks
 of the most expensive restaurants in the world. Your everyday expensive
 restaurants are not even cute compared to these. I don’t exactly 
understand what it is about the food they cook that makes it so 
expensive. For most of the restaurants it is just the environment and 
ambience they offer. They charge you for sitting at their restaurant, 
not for eating their food per say so high-priced meals are a nice cover 
up. Nonetheless, I am sure you will have an amazing time in these 
places. Bon Appetit.</div>

At number ten we have a restaurant from Chicago in United States. The restaurant started the services on the 4<sup style="line-height: 0;">th</sup> May
 in year 2005. The owner of the place is Grant Achatz and he is also the
 head chef of the place. There are only two restaurants in Chicago to 
have received a rating of three stars from Michelin Guide; it is the 
highest rating, and Alilnea is one of those restaurants. It was reviewed
 by the critic Sam Sifton in the New York Times. The name of the 
restaurant comes from the symbol of the same name.</div>

The
 restaurant was the idea of Chef Anatoly Komm. He always loved cooking 
and before he went on into this business, he was forty years old. He is a
 qualified geophysicist. He opened Versace and Ferre boutiques in 
Moscow. This particular restaurant of his is a complete hit in Moscow. 
If you are looking for good food, there is no place better but it comes 
at a cost. A good meal will cost you around $270 excluding the wine or 
any other drinks for that matter. You know how wine is, it can 
practically double or even triple the total check so do that math.</div>

This
 particular restaurant is the highest rated restaurant in Britain and of
 course that makes it the most expensive in Britain as well. The head 
chef around this place is Heston Blumenthal and his dishes are unique. 
The best part about this guy is that he learned everything all by 
himself. If you are looking for some good food and complete meals, 
expect to pay around $300 and that too without any wine. That will cost 
you extra, so your total check could very well exceed $700 easy.</div>

You
 will be able to find this restaurant atop the tallest building in 
Bangkok and it overlooks the Chao Praya River. Japanese Mackerel in 
Peppery Tomato Broth, Sweet-Tasting Rhone Lamb, Soulard Duck with 
Double-Fungus and Lobster with Beets, Pickled Onion and Salad Greens are
 the signature dishes at this place. You should know that if you are 
extremely hungry, you will really not be able to eat your fill and I am 
sure you can guess why that is. So either eat a little before you leave 
home for this place, or just keep ordering.</div>

If
 you are looking for a table at this place you are going to have to wait
 for a very long time. The reservations are made two months in advance, 
so if you plan to go their today, it is not going to happen until at 
least two months. The average check you get for eating at this place is a
 whopping $957. Usually however, it will cost $270 per person. Also, you
 should know that this place has a dress code and a very strict one at 
that so if you are not wearing the proper clothes, you can say goodbye 
to your table.</div>

This
 is the smallest restaurant in the country and it is the most expensive 
restaurant of the country too. It will cost you around $300 for regional
 cooking. It offers local sheep’s cheese, Abruzzo sausage, wild 
mushrooms and berries; a meat, fish or vegetable entrée and homemade 
bread. All of this is complimented with delicious wines from the cellar.
 You can have yourself entertained by a private firework display as 
well; that’s something new.</div>

4. ALAIN DUCASSE AU PLAZA ATHENEE, PARIS, FRANCE</h2>

This
 is a very old-school building, full of lights and amazing architecture.
 What do you expect from the most romantic city in the world? This place
 will literally empty you for starters, you are going to have to pay 
around $250 for the starter that is langoustines with caviar. The usual 
check per head is about $500 and this price does not include any wine 
and they have around 35,000 bottles of wine in the cellar.</div>

The
 chef Masa Takayama came to the Big Apple with the idea of this 
particular restaurant. According to the New York Magazine ‘a meal of the
 highest quality is worth almost any price’. Now, I do not really agree 
with that, but most people do which is why they are happy to pay around 
$400 per person to eat in this place. You should know that the per head 
cost mentioned above does not include tax, tip or sake.</div>
<h2 style="background-color: white; border: 0px; color: #333333; font-family: Verdana, Geneva, sans-serif; line-height: 1.1; margin: 0px 0px 0.6em; padding: 0px; text-shadow: rgb(170, 170, 170) 0px 1px 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
2. ITHAA, MALDIVES</h2>
<div align="center" style="background-color: white; border: 0px; color: #555555; font-family: Verdana, Geneva, sans-serif; font-size: 12px; line-height: 1.3em; margin-bottom: 10px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">

This
 is the best in the world when it comes to underwater restaurants. It 
has been constructed around five meters below the sea level and it will 
over you such amazing views of the aqua life as you enjoy your food. It 
cost around $5 million to build. The interesting bit is that the 
restaurant only has fourteen seats. The menu at this place will cost you
 around $300 per person but people pay if happily for the offered 
Western cuisine and rich seafood. Now this is one place I would love to 
go to.</div>

1. ARAGAWA, TOKYO, JAPAN</h2>
<div align="center" style="background-color: white; border: 0px; color: #555555; font-family: Verdana, Geneva, sans-serif; font-size: 12px; line-height: 1.3em; margin-bottom: 10px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">

I
 am not a very big fan of Japanese food but that does not change the 
facts. Aragawa, located in Tokyo is the most expensive restaurant in the
 world. The restaurant only serves one entrée; steak. That particular 
steak can and will cost you around $600 per person. For the past three 
years, this place has been the most expensive restaurant. To be quite 
honest, I would not go this place even if I had that kind of money for 
one simple reason – I do not like Japanese food.</div>

The Park Grill is the only full-service restaurant included in the 
multi-billion dollar Millennium Park project in Chicago, Illinois. Its 
outdoor seating area is the largest al fresco dining area in Chicago. It
 has placed among the leaders in citywide best-of competitions for best 
burger and is widely praised for its views.The exclusive location, the 
lucrative contract terms, the investor list, and a close personal 
relationship between a managing partner of the restaurant and the 
Chicago Park District's project manager led to a formal ethics 
investigation, court litigation, and extensive press coverage, and 
ranked among the most prominent scandals of the administration of 
Chicago Mayor Richard M. Daley in 2005. The more than 80 investors 
include some of Daley's friends and neighbors. One of the most 
financially successful restaurants in Chicago, the Park Grill remains 
exempt from property taxes after a multi-year litigation which reached 
the Illinois Supreme Court.</div>
