When it comes to culinary flair and indulgence, a trip over the Hajar mountains through Fujairah and onto Khor Fakkan is not the first destination that comes to mind when looking for a food lover’s idea of a dining out dream. However thanks to the Miramar Hotel’s signature restaurant, Sensasia, the UAE’s east coast boasts one of the best Asian restaurants in the region serving a mix of Chinese, Japanese and Thai delicacies.

With a dramatic yet elegant interior design of traditional Chinese scarlets and glamorous patent blacks, it can be said that Sensasia’s menu is just as exotic as the decor. From the delicious appetizers of fragrant thai crab cakes and smoked duck salad served with watercress and hoisin sauce, to the mouthwatering main course of Phuket lobster served in a delicious yellow curry with garlic rice and bokchoy – the menu serves a fresh twist on classic Asian dishes. Just make sure that you leave enough room for the chocolate and kumquat spring rolls… they are a complete taste sensation.
