If you’ve followed me for a while, you’ll probably know that I love Indian food. From flavorful biryanis to succulent masalas, to street foods like pav bhaji, samosas, and pani puri, I can’t get enough.
In 2021, I took an amazing trip to the United Arab Emirates to experience the country’s best Indian food. I wound up spending several days in Dubai, a city known for its exceptional wealth, luxurious accommodations, and legendary nightlife. But it’s also one of the best cities outside of India to experience authentic Indian cuisine! I even caught up with my friend The Food Ranger for some incredible Indian Food!
I’ve eaten my way across the Indian subcontinent across four massive trips that took me to cities like Delhi, Mumbai, Chennai, Kolkata, Guwahati, and Trivandrum. Along the way, I fell in love with the unique flavors, spices, and ingredients that Indian cuisine is known for.
With nearly 3 million people of Indian descent living in the UAE, it’s no surprise that their food has become an important part of the local culture. In this documentary, I’m taking you into Dubai with some special guests as we dive into the wonders of Indian food in the UAE. Let’s go!
My name is David Hoffmann. Since starting David’s Been Here in 2008, I have traveled to over 1,400 destinations in 98 countries to experience and document unique cultures on my YouTube channel, travel blog, and social media.
I highlight culture and historical sites, but my passion is food! I love to experience and showcase the different flavors each destination has to offer, from casual street food to gourmet restaurant dining.
