If you haven't caught wind of it, Dubai Food Festival just kicked off yesterday. This celebration of all things delicious will run until March 11th. The festival is marked by multiple events around town such Etisalat Beach Canteen, Taste of Dubai, and Eat the World DXB.
Eat the World DXB takes residents on a world tour of some of the best street food from around the globe. The event which takes place in Dubai's Burj Park sees chefs from London, US, Singapore and many more coming together to serve up some delectable dishes you shouldn't miss. Khaleej Times was there earlier and we tried out some amazing food that you shouldn't definitely miss. Here are our top picks from Eat the World DXB.

Camel Burger

If for whatever reason you haven't had a camel burger in UAE till now, you're missing out. This tasty Middle Eastern take on everybody's favorite dish is extremely tasty, and has cues akin to eating lamb. The meat is generously sliced and layered with freshly sliced vegetables, sealed together with a lofty bun. Watch our little preview of the camel burger in the video.

Have you had one too many burger variants already? Eat The World is bringing in experts in Singaporean cuisine and with them are some awesome tricks in front of the fryer. Be amazed as they flip and toss noodles, chicken and vegetables while serving up some fiery treats.

That is no typo mind you; there really is a burger that takes its name from the world's tallest building. A culmination of all things Dubai, this decadent burger boasts of multiple servings of Wagyu beef, truffle cheese, and blackberry ketchup under a 24k gold-leaf bun. It's not only big; it's also luxurious in every way.

Cheese everything

Suffice to say, if we ate more cheese, the world would be a happier place. And who doesn't love melting, gooey cheese on a Friday?
