BB Social’s wagyu katsu

A firm fave among Time Out Market Dubai regulars, this wagyu katsu is one of the poster boys for Dubai’s hottest gastronomic hubs. The mustard tonkatsu sauce is, well, the mustard.

Brix’s macaron ice cream sandwiches

Who said sandos could only be savoury? We’ll let you come to your own sweet conclusions over these majestic macarons, which come in combos of black sesame and dark chocolate, chocolate and slated caramel, and coconut and raspberry. Expect mess.

folly Workshop’s battered fish sandwich with salted lemon mayonnaise

Fish butties are proper British, but you can be sure folly Workshop has given this cult favourite bite a modern twist. Salted lemon mayonnaise makes every morsel extra indulgent.

Liban by Allo Beirut’s Francisco sandwich

Baked chicken strips, a handful of mozz, lettuce, corn soy sauce and mayo make this Arabian take on a wrap more than a worthy opponent come lunch time.

Little Erth’s shawarma

It’s shawarma Jim, but not as we know it. If you haven’t tried this vegan take on a classic Middle Eastern favourite, prepare to have your mind blown. Looks like meat, tastes like meat, but meat it ain’t.

Local Fire by The Mattar Farm’s brisket grilled cheese

There’s usually a queue at Local Fire, and one reason is the stacked brisket grilled cheese. Vintage cheddar, a pile of mozzarella and mound of brisket are barely contained between two toasted slices of sourdough. Get in line.

Local Fire by The Mattar Farm’s pastrami Ruben

Time Out Market Dubai may only be a few months old, but this is already the grand daddy of the venue’s sandwich sect. Crumbly pastrami is coated in oozing Swiss cheese, house mustard and pickles to create the type of sandwich our Mother warned us not to hang around with. A genuine bad boy.

Nightjar’s comté and onion jam

Sandwiches most definitely fall into Nightjar’s wheelhouse, and this toastie is the pick of the bunch. The gloriously gooey slab of carbs gets over-extended-digit levels of thumbs up from stuffed Time Out eds. A sandwich you shouldn’t be without.

Pickl’s chicken sando

A burger? Probably. But this chicken sando reigns supreme and more than merits a place on this list. Pick your spice level and get ready to weep tears of joy (or agony, if nuclear tiers of heat are what floats your boat).

Reif’s chicken katsu sando

Reif Othman doesn’t do things by halves, so it’s little wonder his sandos are absolutely stacked. Yuzu kosho mayo and umeboshi jam provide the foil to a deep fried chcken breast that’ll have you clucking about it for weeks to come.

Vietnamese Foodies’ banh mi sandwich

Available in lemongrass grilled beef or grilled chicken (just get both), the peanut sauce elevates this Vietnamese Foodie experience to heights we’re not quite ready to come down from.
