I'm travelling to Dubai in a few weeks. It is a (late) honeymoon trip. We got married in September 2014, but we've been busy. The trip is booked however, and the hotel too. We're staying on the palm island, decided to treat ourselves.
Now to the relevant question: does anyone have a good meat restaurant to recommend? I know nothing about Dubai so far, haven't even been close, so any and all recommendations are appreciated.
Hunters Room and Grill. The steak is pretty decent but the dining experience is something else. Me and a few buddies went there for Gentlemen night, and it was definitely a 5 star experience. Go on one of the specialty nights to cut the cost down though, like everything else in Dubai, its expensive.
Jimmys killer prawns has a pretty good spread, almost every major hotel has a US focused menu or English pub with great but pricey food but no specific ones I remember. I prefer to try local cuisine when abroad but never really enjoyed curries so shawarma is the only ethnic thing I liked in the UAE. I never went but a few friends said there was an amazing Brazilian steak house, can't remember what it's called but I think it was Chama or something. Either way, enjoy your stay, super expensive but the people are very polite or at least mind their own business and are helpful when approached. Some amazing uses of national budget to be explored

Your spot on about the beer, its not allowed in the culture and only tourists are allowed to drink. You will only find booze in specific places attached to the tourism economy,so the prices get inflated.
I was in Dubai for a few days for work. Didnt get a chance to really explore but our local contact there did take me to a place called Tom and Serg. Really nice cafe with a laid back feel to it. And unlike most things in Dubai...not too pricey.
Scotch: Current favorite- The Arran (anything by them), Glenmorangie 12yr Lasanta, sherry cask finished. The Balvenie Double Wood, also like Oban 18yr, and The Glenlivet Nadurra (Oloroso sherry cask finished) among others. Neat please.

Looks like a beautiful place, I remember watching the Palm Islands being built way back on a documentary show. I hope you two have a great time and make special memories!
