What is the Dubai World Cuisine movement?

What is the Dubai World Cuisine movement?

With a continuous program of culinary activations, we aim to pair international chefs with chefs from leading Dubai-born restaurants.

These restaurants feature original concepts that transcend traditional ethnic cuisines, offering instead a synthesis of diverse cuisines, styles, and ingredients—an authentic expression of Dubai's unique cultural melting pot.

The Movement Aims To:

  • Create a platform for homegrown chefs to collaboratively define Dubai’s cultural identity on the global culinary map.
  • Set clear goals and objectives for the community of chefs and restaurants involved in the initiative.
  • Position Dubai as the world’s premier culinary destination for global travellers.
  • Drive increased footfall from both tourists and residents to homegrown restaurants.
