Whether you head to the seaside to sample the finest Fine de Claire’s or choose the spectacular setting of the Dubai Opera, oysters are the ultimate indulgence for any seafood fan, and there’s more than one way to eat them.
The Fish House, InterContinental Dubai Festival City.
The newly opened Fish House restaurant combines the best knowledge of everything seafood with culinary influences from the region. The modern décor with a terrace overlooking the creek, it’s ideal for sampling oysters that have been topped with vinegar and pomegranate. Our top pick? The sharing Fish House tower of locally sourced hot and cold seafood that presents oysters in two ways.
Rockfish, Jumeirah Al Naseem
For fine dining right on the sea with impressive views and one of the best interiors we’ve seen, Rockfish is hard to beat. Enjoy freshly shucked Tarbouriesh, Gillardeau or Tsarskaya oysters for lunch or dinner which are served with lemon wrap mignonette vinaigrette, Tabasco, Thai dressing and pumpernickel.
