From young professionals to families, many people love the tranquility of Arabian Ranches. If you want to bask in the serene atmosphere while enjoying a fantastic meal, you should try one of these acclaimed restaurants!
1. Sansation
For the past decade, Sansation has been an integral part of the Arabian Ranches community, an eatery where passion for food and community are perfectly interwoven. Two brothers founded Sansation after traveling the world searching for new and exciting culinary experiences. The name ‘Sansation’ is derived from Sandwich Station.
While the youngest brother focused on what other restaurants lacked, the older brother concentrated on building trust with the community. This ethos is evident when you step into this open kitchen eatery and browse its eclectic yet simple menu. If you’re looking for the best comfort food in a comfortable venue, you’ve found it!
To start your dining experience, you can never go wrong with authentic hummus, served with fresh bread or pan-fried lamb. However, the Assorted Hot Mezzeh platter is perfect for sharing with loved ones. From Potato Harrah to BBQ Buffalo Wings, there are many other appetizers to choose from.
You can choose between many poultry, beef, lamb, and seafood dishes for your main course. Guests rave about the Chicken Biryani, but the Tenderloin Steak is equally irresistible. The Kleftiko lamb shank is perfect for those with a big appetite. If you’re a seafood lover, you’ll savor every bite of the Parchment Seabass.
For dessert, you’ll love the traditional profiterole, baked puff balls filled with cream and topped with chocolate sauce and raspberries. Other favorites are the Umm Ali dessert, a traditional Egyptian dish, and the Turkish Baklava, filled with pistachios and served with ice cream. With so many sensational flavors to try, you’ll be back at Sansation in no time!
