Shaq's Favourite Spots
Seashell
Chances are you’ve seen a Seashell branch around Abu Dhabi before. This much-loved cafeteria is hard to miss, and thankfully so! Thanks to its almost endless variety of treats, Shaq adds a Seashell pitstop to every visit. Try his usual, the iconic Abood Special Juice, and you can thank us later.
Bu Tafish
Next time you’re in the mood for some seafood, do as Shaq does and head straight to Bu Tafish for a fresh sea-to-table dining experience. Serving the UAE since 1968, Bu Tafish has perfectly honed its seafood menu for all palettes and appetites. A tip from Shaq: get the lobster. You won’t regret it.
