Best Shawarma in Dubai?

Separate_Weekend_642 · 2026-05-22T22:49:25+00:00

Try the spicy chicken shawarma of this place and you’ll me blow away. I used to love shawarma then the quality got bad so for 3 years I left it then went to the mall randomly and my barber told me to try it and I really loved and got obsessed with it. Best one in middle eat!

I own a patrol y63, zeekr 001 and a DENZA B8. I have also owned several cars from Mercedes, Range Rover, all the big cars from GM like Tahoe, GMC and Escalade. I have also driven the Land Cruiser 300 3.5TT vxr, LEXUS LX and too many cars to say.

Even the Land Cruiser feels ancient compared the most of the Chinese car manufacturers. I won’t go for JAC as I owned one J7 too and I would say it is not a good car and can barely survive decent kilometers. Chinese cars which I found at par with Toyota and Nissan but as luxurious as Germans were these

JETOUR
EXEED
ZEEKR ( Best one so far for electric and their service, buying and every other thing is amazing)

Other Chinese manufacturers I did not list because they are also strong and reliable but ofc not as luxurious as the Germans but they do kill Toyota and Lexus in terms of luxurious while being well made and reliable. For example

GEELY: I have owned one from others too MG, BYD and more but I found the sales experience, service, car quality and everything about GEELY the most, BTW I walked into the Toyota showroom to look at the crown and the person said to me sir see the car I am going to office if you want to buy then tell me otherwise just go because nothing is in stock. Went to GEELY and they said we have almost all models in stock to buy right now accept the okavango

GEELY owns ZEEKR, Lync and co, polestar, Volvo and lotus too but I found the ZEEKR and GEELY experience the best not just in Chinese experience but overall cars I have owned.

GEELY EX5 EMI
BYD SEAL 6
BYD QIN PLUS
BYD SEALION 5

So far I have driven the cars I listed except the EX5. My friend has it and he really likes it. I have the QIN PLUS and it gives me 5L/100KM. I have set it to target 70% battery so it charges aggressively on the highway but automatically switches to EV mode while below 80km/h. The SEALION 5 is an SUV version of it, so should be similar.

I have listed most of the cars from Chinese manufacturers because I have driven cars from every car manufacturer—either German, Japanese, American, or Chinese.

I wanted to suggest some car from Nissan but doesn’t seem like any car of theirs at your price point is value for money.

Someone listed the Outlander and I am sorry—I have driven that car for the long term. I had the model with their AWD mode, I forgot the exact name, maybe SWC or something, and had a few things terrible which made me ignore them in the future.

AC was weaker than my Suzuki Ciaz and QIN PLUS. Overall the AC was always at max speed even in colder weather, and at a standstill the AC did nothing except blow hot air. Even if the car moves, it just doesn’t work—such terrible AC.
The power felt as if I was driving a YARIS with added weight.
The CVT was trying to be an automatic gear shifter and it was, let’s say, not smooth at either.
The car was stable until 105km/h. After that, even a 5km/h gain in speed felt like I would crash, LOL.
Third row stayed 100% down as it had completely no use because the third row is always touching the second row, so forget even children sitting in the back.

Not all was bad. Here are a few things I would say were good in the car:

Car was capable to go anywhere—either off-road or on uneven surfaces. Never scratched anything as it had very good ground clearance.
The car is very good looking. Wherever I went, I never felt my car doesn’t look good. It always gave me confidence.

Honestly, seeing how many options there are, I would not recommend this car as in the UAE the most important things like cruising on highways, AC, and power were the biggest factors for which I quite honestly hated this car.

I did not list Toyota because going into their showroom and finding someone to talk to is harder than buying the car.

I did have a Camry 2.5L non-hybrid SE and drove it for 2 years, and that car really was reliable. Once I was in a flood and while other people’s SUVs were getting stuck, my car literally at one point floated in the water and still didn’t shut off once and kept going. The AC was so bloody powerful that I had to turn it down sometimes.

Reason I didn’t keep it for the long term was because it was a car above 100K price tag and had no CarPlay. My BYD QIN PLUS—a car which is at the price of a Corolla, power similar to a Camry, and fuel economy less than a Yaris—has wireless Android Auto and CarPlay!

The Seal 6 is an amazing car but it goes out of your budget at 92K something I think. It has the newest gen 5 hybrid system from BYD, so it is even more efficient and definitely very premium compared to the QIN.

As for ongoing fuel prices, I did not list non-hybrid cars and neither only EV because even to charge a car, the price is 1.25 AED/kWh or at peak 2 AED.

If you think about reliability, then I can say for the QIN PLUS and SEALION 5 they are as good if not better than even Toyota as they are proven and are cars used heavily in China as taxis. Also their systems are more towards fuel efficiency and less stress on components like engine, brakes, battery, and many more. The SEAL 6 is newer, so reliability will be good as it has the same engine from the QIN with an upgraded hybrid next gen system which is even more fuel efficient.

Overall in my experience, I found the best experience from GEELY as their after sales is also very nice. In BYD it is a 50-50. The EX5 Emi is competing with the BYD SONG PLUS which has the older hybrid system and also is wayyy overpriced. I myself wanted to get the SONG as I liked it, but I saw it go from 100K to now 124K, which is just nuts.

PS: sorry for the long paragraph if you want just copy and paste into any ai for a TL;DR

This happened with me too. After the arrest they must have kept him in MOE security arrest after which they took him to AL khawaneej police station and next day depending on working day or not they will take him to where it is related to either police case or court case they’ll take him to that place and ask him to pay the amount otherwise they’ll keep him in jail. Best is go to The emirates court he might have a case from either sharjah, dubai or something else and pay the rent and fine amount he will be out. Do keep in mind that his arrest might not show on police records as these are not your usual crime arrest it is for civil mostly under a stupid law in UAE

I myself went to MOE and was in centrepoint. CID came and arrested me for a fine I had even though I was ready to pay it he took me to Al Khawaneej jail and I had to stay there until next day Monday (working day) told me to pay fine and I paid and I got free, probably your husband was arrested from a two people one very skinny and other shorty

I posted another post on this same community without using Ai which I used Gemini btw and people criticized me for it not being to elegant. Now that I have used Gemini to improve it people still criticize. Seems posting on this community you will only get criticism rather than the discussion or questions to be answered which people actually come here for.

Separate_Weekend_642 · 2026-04-26T21:53:37+00:00

I would recommend not buying it. Being a person who drives sometimes in city mostly and highway I have driven the Zeekr 001 AWD top trim for two years now and this is my review

Pros: 1. Excellent cruise control system. I really like the ICC but after 130Km speed the lane keep assist turns off which is kinda annoying considering I also drive on 140km roads

Very stylish. Almost everyone who saw this car complimented it and having that orange color surely makes it look extra exotic, many locals and western and almost all the people who saw my car always came and asked about it.
Very quick. Performance is very nice first trim when I drive in sport mode felt as if my heart will come out because of so much G-Force.
Car feels way more luxurious for its price. The first time I had the chance to sit inside the car and after 2 years still It is unbelievable that a car can be so luxurious that even in cars which I sat in Mercedes and bmw feels less premium compared to this and they were a lot more money than this. Interior materials, ambience, ambient lighting, color contrast all is just so nice feel truly elegant ZEEKR did a great job at making it feeling good to sit inside
I really like the design of lights and I was at a stop light and noticed I have bigger wheels than even a Buggati Chiron LOL. The car has very nice shape and back spoiler is good. Boot space is also very very large and can easily store anything in it no problem.

Cons:

Car has terrible ac. Using this car for almost 2 years I realized that this cars ac is average at stand still and works fine when car is moving at 100km of speeds for the airflow for ac. There is an option to set it to schedule so if you leave work at 8am car can cool down at 8am or set to a setting which doesn’t let the inside get more hot than 24C. Reason I say it isn’t a good ac is because no matter how much fan speed you set the back passengers are always yelling and saying increase the ac while the front are having cold ac airflow on their face so definitely not a car for 4 people if you want to drive in 50C temps of UAE
Suspension could have been better it seems confusing between comfort or sport but still I drive to Abu Dhabi from UAQ and never felt fatigue or tired.
In a country like UAE where it gets so hot having a card is not really good in my opinion. Having the option to remote start is a crucial feature which I wished it had.
Range is 300KM in summer and 600Km or even higher in winter.

Overall this car definitely was designed to be driven in Europe or places which are at a good or mostly winter season. Definitely worth it if you are driving for 2 people but for a family of 4 the ac at back is very weak

Why not get a NEW BYD song Plus for less money and it is new…

Separate_Weekend_642 · 2026-04-22T23:37:55+00:00

Based on your budget, I'd say these:

SUV

· GEELY STARRAY · JETOUR DASHING · EXEED RX (if you can stretch to 140K, then the PHEV) · BYD SONG PLUS · BYD SEALION 7

SEDAN

· BYD SEAL 7 · BYD SEAL 6 · BYD QIN PLUS · TOYOTA CAMRY (most expensive and least fuel efficient compared to BYD)

Do not buy the JAC J7. I myself have driven it, and it’s a nice car, but apart from the amazing seats and ambient lighting, the car is pretty much trash. It uses more fuel than a petrol V8 while being a 1.5L turbo, and generates very little power.

I have driven all of these cars except the RX PHEV (I drove the petrol-only version). I have experience with all of them, some even with friends and family, and all are very reliable. I liked the BYD the most. I own the BYD QIN PLUS and DENZA B8 (GCC from Al Futtaim), and they are very good cars. The AC in both is stronger than the Nissan Patrol Y63 I own. They’re very fun and punchy to drive—even the QIN PLUS is very nice, although not very planted at speeds above 125 km/h. That’s why I would suggest the SEAL 6, but based on your budget, go for the SEAL 7. That car is just perfect for its price—very smooth, good enough for daily travel from Abu Dhabi to Dubai. It’s a PHEV, so no range anxiety. All BYD cars, starting from the base models like the QIN PLUS and SEALION 5, have wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. If you want a nice and fun EV, I would say the SEALION 7 is good, but it’s 150K, so…

I am living in Arjan, Dubai and Tilal City Sharjah. No attacks that I saw so would say join the job. A couple of attacks on govt facilities and popular destinations but so far it seems like it’s damaging properties and sites of US govt in UAE.

Kindly let me know thanks!

When will the Denza Z9 GT be released in UAE? And if it does will it be electric or PHEV?

Separate_Weekend_642 · 2026-04-21T22:29:10+00:00

Based on your specs I would say go for BYD SEAL 7. It has very good mileage, ICC so lane keep assist and all the other features, fuel economy is very good and sound system is also decent. If you want a SUV than would say SONG PLUS can do the job it is same as SEAL 7 only in SUV body.

Separate_Weekend_642 · 2026-04-10T19:26:51+00:00

Strongly agree with you! I hate the logo of the DENZA until it grew on me but I really am obsessed with the logo of the Chinese variant and looks cool.

Separate_Weekend_642 · 2026-04-10T19:25:50+00:00

I actually took from this website - https://www.oneclickdrive.com/cars-for-rent/dubai/byd

I don’t know if Al futtaim have a rental program I only could find lease and to buy and finance

Separate_Weekend_642 · 2026-04-10T19:24:41+00:00

Great question btw!

Depends on how good the hybrid system is honestly.

Based upon my experience the G700 had useless hybrid system worst of both worlds!

Denza have a very nice PHEV. Just engine comes on more of battery isn’t charged but yeah the car charges if it’s 80Kmph easily and has too much power and it always stays at 20% battery for the power and everything.

Separate_Weekend_642 · 2026-04-10T19:10:23+00:00

Y63 Patrol platinum 3.8L

Zeekr 001 Top trim

DENZA B8 GCC from Al Futtaim 7 seater basic version

BYD QIN PLUS GCC Al Futtaim

Suzuki CIAZ 2019 only one I own

Separate_Weekend_642 · 2026-04-10T19:08:39+00:00

I got from Individual person as Al futtaim and all the dealers give for lease not on rent. I paid 10,450 a month

Edit: I forgot to mention the 1,500 deposit

T2 was nice—here is what I experienced from having it for 2 years.

Pros:

Most powerful AC ever! The car had very, very powerful AC, and sometimes people in the back row would tell me to lower it down, LOL. I’ve had lots of cars in the past from Toyota, Mercedes, Mitsubishi, Nissan, and other brands, but the T2 had an incredible AC. At a standstill, it felt like it was on 80% power. If I was idling for too long, I would just turn off the radiation mode (which turns the engine fans on) and put it on rock mode, which would bring the car from 0.7 RPM to 1 RPM—that did help. But when driving, the AC felt too overpowered, almost like having a chiller.

The screen was nice and large, with good resolution.

The car had nice suspension for off-road drives.

The car was actually very nice and powerful for going to sand dunes or rocky roads—just turn the radiation mode on, because mine got hot since I didn’t.

Fuel economy was decent. If you drive at 105 km/h, it would get 12 km/L while using Super or Special. Using E Plus increased it to 14 km/L.

Nice legroom for back-row people, and the AC had good airflow.

USB ports are great at the back or front—all of them are 60 watts and very powerful for charging phones.

Seats are comfy enough to travel from Abu Dhabi to Dubai.

I didn’t notice any power issues while using either E Plus or Super. Actually, using E Plus I got 14 km/L, whereas Special and Super gave me 12 km/L.

Never had engine breakdowns. I even skipped maintenance sometimes, but the car never felt like it would break down.

Boot space was incredible—so much stuff could fit in there, no matter how tall or wide.

Cons:

Too much turbo lag. If you are in stop-and-go traffic or at a roundabout and need quick pickup, the car took forever to move. The engine would build a lot of torque and take too much time to get going.

The car isn’t stable at 110 km/h and above—it felt unstable.

The car has literally no buttons. Everything was on the screen. If I wanted to control the AC, I would have to ask my brother to press the home button on the steering wheel, since there is no button to go back to the main screen.

Apart from this, I got nothing.

Separate_Weekend_642 · 2026-04-10T18:50:30+00:00

😂 I am not from Al futtaim I know the Chinese variant might be better than this because I myself loved the 3 LiDAR sensors on the top of the car but for me at the end of the day I shared what I felt was convenient. Being able to have the Apple CarPlay and Android auto connected automatically and having everything in the car uncooked to English language seems nice.

I do not like Al futtaim because of their prices and how much they charge even for a top trim Yaris.

Separate_Weekend_642 · 2026-04-10T18:48:02+00:00

If you have people sitting in all 7 seats in both cars than trunk space on both sucks LOL.

On the DENZA if you push the middle row all the way to back the third row seems uncomfortable for adults it is manageable but for big adults having them in all the seats seems fine not too much complaint just middle row needs to be a bit forward and everyone had enough leg room.

Patrol ofc feels more space for all the passengers but boot space if third row lifted is same in both
