I’m happy that more and more Asian food places are opening in Dubai. Sizzling Wok features an eclectic menu with handpicked flavours across the Asian continent. From Singaporean street food to spicy, rich Thai curries, Korean Beef Bulgogi and Gochujang lamb chops to Calcutta tangra-style chilli chicken, Burmese Khao Suey and Japanese Ramen, Sizzling Wok takes you on an interesting culinary journey.

When you step inside the restaurant, you will immediately be greeted by a vibrant neon sign which helps set the mood for the dining experience. Its modern interiors are also Asian inspired with baskets hovering over the ceiling, Japanese Geisha paintings on the walls, and wooden tables creating a cool Asian street atmosphere.

We started off with complimentary prawn crackers, salad, and soup. The Yasai Salad was quite refreshing especially with its home-made apple dressing. We also had a small bowl of Miso soup.

For the appetizers, we had Katsu Bao (steamed bun) and Ebi Lime Wasabi (prawn tempura). The crunchy chicken adds a nice bite after you taste the soft bun. The flavor in the prawn tempura was also very good and I enjoyed added texture from the ebi topped on the fried prawns. I enjoyed both dishes.

Main Courses
For the main course, we had Beef Teriyaki Noodles and Korean Beef Ribs. We were pleasantly surprised by the portions of the main dishes, especially the noodles as it could fit two people already.
The beef ribs was slow-cooked for 10 hours so it was very soft and tender. I could also sense its wooden smoky flavour which I was starting to get used to.
