Our Story

A Taste of Yemeni Heritage

Wadi Doan takes its name from one of Yemen’s most storied valleys in Hadhramaut, a place of mud-brick towers, palm groves and generous tables.

Here in Dubai, we cook the way it has always been done: tender meats from the tannour, fragrant rice, bread fresh from the oven, and the warm welcome that comes with every Yemeni meal.
