As part of the planning for my May trip to an industry event in DXB I am looking for restaurant recommendations. I will be dining out for 4x lunch and 4x dinner.

I want to visit JW's Steakhouse because I was a regular at the one in DOH, but that is as far as my plans go. So that is one dinner taken care of.

In particular, I would welcome recommendations for the following categories of restaurants:
* fine dining Chinese
* mid-range or fine dining Iranian
* fine dining Indian
* reasonably authentic but not necessarily fine dining Italian.

I prefer a la carte to buffet and ideally the restaurants would be in a location either close to Millennium Plaza/Emirates Towers or easily accessible on the metro. Alcohol is not essential.

Trader Vics is out because I will be going to the one in AUH a few days later!

Many thanks in advance!
