I mean I’m deliberately neglecting to mention all the European restaurants like L'Atelier de Joël Robuchon, LPM, Gaia, COYA, Zuma, Cipriani and so many others.

Most of these aren’t my favourites, but they’re definitely well loved in world class cities like London.

Do I think Dubai is a world class city? Nah. But it’s not very far.

Personally I’m really not a fan of the place, I’d only ever visit to meet with lawyers. Too warm, too much sand, most of the restaurants can also be found in much better cities (Monaco has most of the aforementioned within a short distance, and vastly better beaches)

I think what makes a world class city is not that it has those sorts of restaurants/shops/etc, but that it incubates those things. Quite a long way from that.
