What a useless article. They don't even say where the China Sea Restaurant is located despite it being the Budget category winner. Doh!

NorthernLad

There is a useful website you can use, it's called Google (heard of it)?

China Sea is in Deira...if it's the one I think it is, there is good karaoke rooms.

glad to see carluccio's there...mango tree was robbed mind...

clearly gary rhodes' place has been doing a lot of advertising with time out...and conveniently he was in town for the awards...there's no way it's the best restaurant here...

has anyone done the traiteur brunch...i haven't heard anything about it...

MM, xx

Some friends did Traiteur and said it was best they have been to here. Pricey, but well worth it.

I go there quite often when I visit Dubai. It's just coastbound (north) off the clock tower junction on the right. Walking distance from the Metro stop (can't remember the name) after Union stop, when Airport bound.

The other good one translates as 'Little Lamb' It's in Deira on the road alongside the Creek about 5 mins walk south from the south abra station. It's one where you cook your own food in a pan of boiling water set into the middle of the table.

Madam Medusa

ohhh, will have to find someone to dump the kids on and try it out then...

Yes, a couple of weeks ago. Champage is Veuve Cliquot. It was rather nice but not fabulous. Still pricey unless you can eat a LOT of fois gras (which I loathe).

I've just checked - this is also in Time Out, name is 'Xiao Wei Yang'

Station after Union Sq. is Al Rigga

There you go LH, help from a 'red'.

Madam Medusa
