Frying Pan Adventures are run by a delightful team of young women who are real food enthusiasts and are tapped in to what’s going on in the food scene in Dubai, with a particular focus on small independents in the older parts of town

Erilaiseen, siirtotyöläisten asuttamaan Dubaihin sekä Lähi-idän ja Pohjois-Afrikan maiden keittiöihin voi tutustua Dubaissa pitkään asuneen intialaistaustaisen Arva Ahmedin opastetuilla ruokakävelyillä.

The tour of the heritage precinct takes visitors back in time, offering glimpses of what life was like in the days of yore

One of the tour’s aims is to showcase a side of Ramadan that one might only see in this old part of the city. Without giving away too much, prepare for some amazing Ramadan hospitality right on the pavement of the city.

The Frying Pan arrangerar matvandringar för dem som söker lokal, autentisk mat, långt från fine dining och hotell-krogar.

Arva deliberately keeps the groups small, normally a maximum of seven or eight people, and attracts a mix of residents and tourists to maintain an intimate feel. If you want to discover secret Dubai, this is the experience for you

With Ahmed’s quick wit and encyclopaedic knowledge of regional cuisine, it’s no wonder Andrew Zimmern featured her on his show Bizarre Foods.

Join the Ahmed Sisters of Frying Pan Adventures, for a soulful Iftar adventure through an old neighbourhood steeped in the tradition of communal sharing during the holy month of Ramadan.

Arva helps us get our heads, and our hands, around traditional-style eating which involves making a small ball of food with the right hand and using the thumb to get it into our mouths. It’s a lot of fun and we soon get the hang of it.
