2020 It’s a new year coming up, and we cannot help but feel excited about all the new restaurants and foods we are going to try, right?! From concept cookings to gastronomic and fusion restaurants in Dubai, many new trends have picked up in the past few years, created their niche foodie audience, and become mainstream now. So what are the trends we should be excited for in 2020 in Dubai? And what will Dubai be getting hooked on to? We have got you a list of Top 5 Food Trends In Dubai, we all need to be excited for. Tell us which one got you excited.

1. Sustainable Cooking Styles

We are all increasingly getting aware of the rising hazards of global warming and the importance of sustainable lifestyles. So expect this year to have more and more restaurants take up the concept of zero-waste-cooking. So this year, we will maximize tastes and minimize wastages at our restaurants. In fact, restaurants like Lowe Dubai, regularly hosts Waste Not sessions to promote the Zero-Waste Concepts.

2. The Rise Of Veganism

With Sustainable eating comes veganism. As more and more people adopt veganism, we are sure restaurants will be keen to embrace the concept across various cuisines and innovate with their dishes. We can’t help but feel excited about all the many options of vegan food we haven’t been able to taste because of the limited options. So in 2020, we hope this food trend to change. And Dubai is already catching up with this trend. The city boasts some of the best vegetarian restaurants. Tried it yet?

3. Children’s Menus Getting Special Attention

Children’s Menus have often not got much attention in restaurants. But in 2020, we see a trend of restaurants becoming more kid-friendly in Dubai. From a special buffet spreads that to increased options in Kids Menus, it’s going to be a great year for kids who love to eat! We can already see this food trend catching up as so many New Year Spreads 2020 in Dubai are offering different spreads for the kids and entertainment too!

4. Teetotalers Will Get More

With Dubai being a Muslim city and folks increasingly taking to teetotaling, people have been asking for an increased variety in non-alcoholic beverages. So expect your mocktail menu to have better offerings for you. Then there are innovations happening that give the teetotaler a taste of alcohol without the alcohol in it. So we are going to see more of such changes that people who wanna stay away from alcohol can enjoy.

5. Crisper Menus

Now we know this may sound a bit of a bummer, but trust us, it’s not! Just how many times have you skimmed through individual sections of the menu knowing you want none of it?! So this year, expect more and more restaurants to serve up the best of their dishes and chuck out the less ordered or regular ones. This means we have lesser wastage, greater quality as well as ease in deciding what we wanna eat. Isn’t that amazing? So expect restaurants to carve out niche menus instead of long ones. O’Pao in Karama is one such restaurant that serves 16 different types of pav.
