So, we’re exactly 21 days away from summer, but honestly? That changes nothing. The sun’s already blazing, we’ve been melting like forgotten ice cream, and the AC is working left, right and center like that employee desperate to get promoted. And for the past few days, all we’ve done is to look for ways to cool down without spending a fortune. Well, guess what? Behtareen Zaiqa in Hor Al Anz just dropped a summer-only menu where every single item is under AED 10. Honestly, this is the kind of cool, budget-friendly magic Dubai dreams are made of.
Nothing Like A Budget-Friendly Summer Menu
Let’s talk about what’s on the menu, because it’s giving full-on summer nostalgia meets desi street food heaven. You know the vibes – mango everything, icy treats, and the kind of flavours that take you back to vacations at your nani’s house.
First up, you’ve got the Ice Golas for just AED 7. Absolutely cold, colourful, and Instagrammable. Perfect for cooling down post-dinner (or literally any time between 4 PM and midnight – that’s when it is available!). Then there’s the Summer Thali for AED 9.99, which comes with a mango lassi shot (oh, adorbs), aam ras with mini puris, mix chaat, and something mysteriously named “summer pop” that you just know is going to be iconic.

Mango Lovers, This One’s Juicy (Literally)
Their mango kulfi is a steal at AED 6 – creamy and nostalgic in all the right ways. Want something to sip? Go for the mango lassi at AED 8.
Or treat yourself to the ultimate layered dessert: mango falooda for AED 9.99. It’s rich, satisfying, and the kind of thing that deserves your full attention.
Here’s What Else Is Available
Now, if you thought it ends at summer specials – think again. Behtareen Zaiqa is also serving up a full lineup of flavour-packed mains that go beyond the chilled stuff. From juicy Tikkas and smoky Tandoori Chicken to bold curries like Murgh Kali Mirch and their crowd-favourite Hyderabadi Special Haleem, the savoury side of the menu is just as tempting. Craving biryani? Of course they have that too.
Vegetarians, don’t worry, you’re not forgotten. The Paneer Tikka and the absolutely loaded Raj Kachori are here to make you question everything you thought you knew about “veg options.” And finally – please don’t skip dessert. Their rich, sticky, utterly indulgent Khubani Ka Meetha (stewed apricot dessert) is the kind of thing you save room for. Or don’t, and just order it anyway!
