• Worth traveling to even if you hate malls

Bestro is a great addition to the Dubai Mall dining scene and the Dubai food scene overall. As a vegetarian with a penchant for eating vegan, it's nice to have a place where you don't need to question every dish on the menu. The mylk shakes were great (I had a banana one, my dining partner had the cocoa one) and really tasty. Food-wise, we had the zucchini "spaghetti", which were outstanding and would not be out of place in a more mainstream restaurant, and also the shrooms, which were very good, too. Don't miss out on the desserts. I had the chocolate fondant and it was awesome, filled with some sort of almond milk cream. The owner Hayley is indeed super sweet and helpful. There's also a small pantry next to the restaurant where you can buy vegan products. Bestro does a great job in showcasing raw vegan cooking - don't be put off by labels if you're not vegan or vegetarian; give it a try next time you're in Dubai Mall, and see for yourself.
