10 Dirham Dish is back in Dubai from 3 to 30 August, with more than 160 restaurants and cafés selling a nominated dish or dessert for a flat AED 10 across 700-plus branches. The published 2026 line-up runs to 150 dishes, from Shake Shack’s New York plain hot dog and Pret A Manger’s Americano with pastel de nata to biryani from a dozen kitchens and a kulfi stick you can eat standing up. No bookings, no vouchers: walk in and ask for the AED 10 dish. Here is every deal, sorted by what you are in the mood for.

How 10 Dirham Dish works

Run by Dubai Festivals and Retail Establishment as part of Dubai Summer Surprises, the campaign works the way it did last August: each participating outlet nominates one dish or dessert and sells it at AED 10 for the whole month. You do not need to book, load a voucher or show anything on your phone. The asking is the whole process. The only real difficulty is choosing which one.

The AED 10 covers the nominated item; drinks and service charge are usually separate. Portions tend to run snack-to-light-meal sized, which suits the format — three or four stops make a proper meal.

The full live list sits on the District by Zomato app, the campaign’s official listing partner, which shows the nearest participating outlet. The official Visit Dubai page carries the details and its own top picks. Outlets can change through the month, so the app is the one to trust on the day.

The official top picks

The official page leads with these savoury picks:

  • The Daily (Rove Hotels) — Rove poke bowl
  • LDC Kitchen & Coffee — quinoa and falafel bowl
  • Hangry Joe’s — three-piece chicken wings
  • The Noodle House — chicken siew mai
  • Bikanervala — dahi puri
  • Oporto — Bondi burger

And these sweet ones:

  • House of Pops — assorted real-fruit ice pop
  • iCoffee — cappuccino and banana loaf cake
  • FiLLi — coco melon bubble tea
  • Cold Stone Creamery — Birthday Cake Remix
  • Dunkin’ — signature iced coffee and doughnut

Where the deals are

Participating outlets sit in malls and food courts — Al Ghurair Centre, Dubai Festival City Mall, Deira City Centre and Palm Jumeirah Mall are all in the 2026 round-up — alongside the neighbourhood kitchens. The list leans heavily on the city’s budget-dining streets: Mumbai Junction, Delhi Highway and Vasai Local, all Karama regulars, are in, and Feka’s Iraqi kebab arouq is back. The District app’s nearest-outlet view does the legwork; if you are in a mall with a food court, the odds are a participant is under the same roof.

Plan your run

The campaign ends on 30 August. The most popular dishes go quickly at peak times, so an early lunch beats a post-work queue.

Last year’s edition covered the same ground at 700-plus outlets, and the DSS Summer Restaurant Week set menus took the bookable slot earlier in the season. For the rest of the year, our guide to the city’s cheapest restaurants has the names. Until the end of the month, the ten-dirham question is which dish.
