🇮🇳🤩 today's business lunch was a joy at new restaurant @thecrossingdubai at h hotel szr near dwtc. they opened in january and are already accumulating some impressive reviews thanks to a quite unique "cross cultural elevated indian cuisine". the crossing is fully licensed and has stylish chilling cabinets displaying the best wines to accompany their a la carte and other speciality offerings. there's a beautiful long bar where they serve cocktails. check out the lush green garden terrace that looks so inviting. i'd say this is the perfect venue when you're looking for a decent meal and a contemporary, calm vibe! 🥰

top spot for indian food, i love the kulfi here as well, its a good addition to the city walk culinary scene in dubai

amazing addition to the culinary scene in dxb. loved every bite, innovative, refreshing and nostalgic in every bite.
can’t wait to go back.

fantastic place, very good indian restaurant with modern touch , my kids and family enjoyed. main course and starter were good
chocolate bake must try

loved everything about the restaurant!!
menu, variety, taste, quality, portion and ambiance. just pefect! highly recommended for food lovers.

a big thank you to the amazing hospitality and food by the crossing restaurant - we had the full outside area to ourselves

chef is amazing - the food is really superb, fresh and made to order. staff was attentive and very helpful. best of all - they listen to your dietary needs and even made vrat ka khana for us as i was fasting for navratri that evening. thank you jarret, shweta and team - will be back soon !

indian culture is as immersive and immense as it’s culinary. you will bring back all your nostalgia from your family recipes, showcasing just how diverse we are as a country, and how crisscrossed our culture is!
recipes from the kitchen of historic rulers to the contemporary grammable food for the millennials, there is just everything on their menu.

the iftar menu was also indicative of the celebrations of our diversity. some recipes from the indian coastline like the gunpowder prawns served with melt in mouth homemade pav
(my very fav) to the indian saag, the whole menu is split between small plates, grills, grains and curries, it’s designed so that you can try a bit of everything.

available for aed 130 & aed 175, both a lavish five course menu, my favorites were:

dal moradabad
gunpowder prawns
chicken makhan
butter chicken
malai kesar sunday

special mention to our server lucy who was the warmest and most accommodating to our request.

many thanks to chef arjun for he came specially to meet us and add on his personalized touch by sharing his travel stories and culinary journey with crossings

always on the lookout for decent indian restaurants which offers great ambience, a rich culinary experience, without compromising on taste.

the eclectic spread harbors cultural diversity within its cuisine, not only from its indian roots but also other parts of the world.

starting with your dates and laban, onto your starters containing dal moraddabad which is a burst of flavor in your mouth , onto the gun powder prawns, chicken makhan malai & ending with their creamy malai kesar sundae that’ll take you to cloud 9.

if you want good food without a doubt, this is where you should be headed next !!

fancy having lavish iftaar this ramadan ?
head out to crossings at the h hotel, to devour in fine dining experience which takes you to a nostalgic journey of culinary adventure across india. with a 4-course set menu, be prepared to be taken on a trip that will revitalize your taste buds. they have something for every spice lover with dishes catering to multicultural palettes. dishes are diverse – food from the rajput kitchens, secret family recipes from northeast india and traditional coastal fare. you’ll also note influences from the caribbean, portugal, france and britain, all crossing their way into the chaos of this vibrant cuisine.
coming back to the dining experience; as you enter, you are greeted by a gentle lady greeting you with a smile and escorts you to your choice of seating after confirming the reservation. i was astounded by the alluring interiors that the place has.  a large dining room with a long bar and high stools provides a handy spot for a drink pre- or post-meal. they also have outdoor seating which is beautifully lit up and has an astonishing view of world trade centre.
for iftaar, they have a 4 course set menu and our lady host; ms. lucy was very helpful and ensured that we had pleasant dining experience.
for starters we had :
🌟dal moradabad – an innovative version of dal pakwaan  
🌟chaat – not your usual chaat. it was a chaat served on different green leaves (apart from palak leaves).
🌟paneer tikka- their in- house paneer is to die for. soft and succulent just melts in your mouth.
our mains were:
🌟saag: medley of five mountain grown green leaves with a tadka of ghee and garlic just won my taste buds.
🌟dal makhani- one can never go wrong with this dish.
our meals were complimented with assorted roti basket
it was now time to indulge in the most sinful experience ; desserts which were:
🌟serradura – a unique dessert with jackfruit, cream, cheese and milk
🌟malai kesar sundae- pan ice cream served with ghevar lattice.

each dish has a story behind it and special mention to chef arjun for narrating these tales to us.
the food was an absolute reminisce of old memories without being too stuffed.
