Tips for Russian readers visiting these places
Book ahead: High-end caviar spots (Kaspia, Beluga, IKRA) and beachfront restaurants book quickly on weekends and holidays – reserve via the official websites or Open Table listings.
Dress smart: Dubai fine-dining often expects smart casual or smarter for evening services – good to mention on reservation. (Most venues list dress code on their booking pages.)
Ask about sourcing: Many caviar menus now use responsibly farmed varieties – don’t hesitate to ask the sommelier or manager for details if provenance matters. (High-end caviar houses usually publish sourcing or staff can advise.)
CAVIAR KASPIA
Group budgets: A luxurious caviar dinner for two can be pricey; for celebratory nights consider sharing several small caviar plates and pairing with champagne.
Late-night fun: If you want loud Russian-style parties (karaoke, DJs), Chalet Berezka and some Palm venues are the go-to choices.
