From Time Out Dubai Eating Out 2009

Zheng He’s is a rare find. It joins ranks with Dubai’s classiest Chinese restaurants, but manages to do so without pomp. The decor is traditional and serene and, while the menu still boasts haute ingredients like caviar, truffles and wagyu, it’s only to augment delicious and classical Chinese fare.

The Beijing duck is expertly prepared and comes highly recommended, as does the scallops with black truffle and white asparagus and beef tenderloin. Desserts are a cut above what’s on offer at most Chinese restaurants, and demonstrate an innovative kitchen staff. One highlight is the coconut ice cream and plum crumble.

If you’re new to Dubai, this is the type of restaurant you want to start with. The service is as spot on as at any five-star venue and, though the restaurant is tucked away under the Mina A’Salam, the walk through the Madinat Jumeirah makes for a romantic evening from start to finish.
