July 4 is one of the most celebrated holidays in the United States. This Independence Day, dress up in your best red, white and blue and fill up on American-themed food and drinks in one of these three restaurants:

The Sportsman’s Arms

First Floor, International Tennis Centre, Zayed Sports City, Abu Dhabi

This American-Irish gastropub in Zayed Sports City is introducing a new American dish to celebrate the fourth of July. Jack’s glazed short rib poutine (OK, so it’s a little Canadian too) comes with a pile of bite-sized homemade cheddar cheese curds smothered in brown gravy. That’s all set atop a pile of fries of course. The new dish will be served July 4 from noon onward for Dh90. The Sportsman’s Arms is also introducing poutine and grape night every Tuesday starting July 12. From 4pm onward, guests can choose one of three poutine dishes from Dh99. 02 403 4235
