    With another day in Abu Dhabi ahead of me, my friend Ruzaina and I set off to have more Indian food and to visit a local mosque! Join us as I eat Indian dhaba food and go on a mosque tour with Minority Taste in Abu Dhabi, UAE!
    We started our day at the Sheik Zayed Grand Mosque, the most important Islamic site in the UAE. It’s also one of the most respected and most beautiful Islamic sites in the world!
    👕 DAVID’S BEEN HERE MERCH: teespring.com/...
    The mosque is a beautiful white color. Our first stop was the courtyard, which is 17,400 square meters and can fit 31,000 worshippers.
    There’s a lot of intricate marble, which comes from different Islamic cultures. The mosque was built in different architectural styles.
    The courtyard’s floor is the largest marble mosaic artwork in the world! The mosque was built to convey a message of peace and tolerance.
    There are also 82 domes and over 1,000 columns! This mosque was spectacular! I’d never been to one this beautiful. There are so many details on the columns, including gold-plated palm fronds and painted marble mosaics of flowers.
    As we headed to the main prayer hall, we saw more gorgeous mosaics of flowers. The ceilings are at least 100 feet high and there is calligraphy from the Koran inscribed on the inside of the dome!
    The main prayer room has a single continuous hand-knitted carpet-one of the largest in the world! There are so many intricate details in it!
    There’s also a 24-karat gold plated chandelier, which is the largest in the world! On the walls are the 99 names of Allah.
    We left the mosque and headed through the mall, and eventually caught a taxi. It takes 90 minutes to drive from Abu Dhabi to Dubai, and the restaurant we’d be going to is at the midway point.
    We arrived at Ghantoot Royal Restaurant, the only dhaba along the road between two cities. It’s a simple diner-like dhaba.
    They have a massive menu containing sandwiches, burgers, soups, salads, rice dishes, shawarmas, mixed grilled dishes, and more!
    We ordered mutton masala, kingfish machboos, raita, saman, salad, karak (masala chai), and juices. I got a papaya juice while Ruzaina had watermelon juice.
    Ruzaina poured some saman and raita on top of the kingfish machboos. The fried kingfish was super fresh, and the rice was very light. The raita made it very creamy. It was like a milder, less aromatic biryani, but still very flavorful.
    Adding the mutton masala to the machboos rice was unreal. The gravy was delicious! Next, we had some Afghan roti with toor dal, which had a bit of spice to it and was really nice! The roti was made with a different flour, so it was lighter than usual.
    I couldn’t get enough of the mutton, which was very tender and had a nice amount of fat on it. I loved it!
    Everything was very fresh and tasty, and mixing the different gravies with the rice, mutton, and fish was unbelievable. Everyone there was a local. If it’s all locals, you know the food is good!
    After eating, we caught a taxi back to Dubai. The city is less than 50 years old. It’s full of new high rises. The city itself is massive and there’s lots of traffic. They’re still building it up!

      Food looks amazing. I'm in central Pa, there isn't selection of middle East food...or Indian food. Some times I make me own home made Afghan Roti. Watching you two eat so cute...he keeps saying um, he eating with his hand for first time, reminds me of myself slopping up table with rice bits fallen all over. The Mosque was so beautiful! The Chandelier was sight to see from a screen.

In the video the host told this is only the eatery available which is not true. In UAE you can find all the authentic cuisines around the world. Just Google you can find more👍
