RAK's food scene is split between the old town's working-class Pakistani and Iranian eateries, the resort hotels on Al Marjan and Al Hamra with their international restaurants, and a small but growing cluster of independent cafes and gastro spots around Mina Al Arab. Don't miss the Emirati seafood — pomfret and hammour fresh off the boats — or the Yemeni mandi houses where lamb falls off the bone after hours of slow cooking.
