Heard of a little corner shop or a hole-in-the-wall eatery that’s rumoured to sell the best burger, or the best sandwich, or the best kebab? Or another ‘little-known place’ that ‘launches a thousand ships’? UAE’s Hidden Gems, our weekly series, will feature one such place a week, every Wednesday. This week we hit the streets of Al Ghusais in Dubai in search of the UAE's biggest thali or meal on a platter.
Weighing about three and a half kilos (by conservative estimates), tugged along by two men and heaving with over 50 items, this Dh135 all-inclusive Baahubali Thali is truly designed to pique the palate of a strongman (as the name suggests) worth his weight in gold. And this could well be the biggest meal served on a platter anywhere in Dubai, if not in UAE. Big enough to be shared by four people and gargantuan enough to turn heads of those around.
With millions of cars navigating the UAE's bustling roads, the importance of regular automotive service and maintenance cannot be overstated.
