The Dubai Department of Economy and Tourism (DET) has launched ‘Dubai, A Fine Way to Dine,’ a citywide gastronomy initiative providing residents and visitors with exclusive, curated culinary experiences.
Running until 19 April, the initiative encourages exploration of Dubai’s diverse dining landscape while fostering social connection through shared culinary experiences.
Dubai’s multicultural gastronomy sector has long been a cornerstone of the city’s global appeal. Drawing inspiration from the flavors and traditions of nearly 200 nationalities, the city offers residents and visitors a dynamic and culturally rich dining environment.
This diversity, coupled with a strong focus on quality and authenticity, has positioned Dubai as a globally acclaimed culinary capital.
The initiative features a selection of MICHELIN-starred and Bib Gourmand restaurants, including Avatara, Trèsind Studio, Il Ristorante – Niko Romito, TakaHisa, Jun’s, The Guild, CÉ LA VI, Manāo, 21gr21grams, andams, COYA, among others.
For the first time, residents and visitors can enjoy unprecedented access to premium dining experiences with offers such as up to 50 percent off à la carte menus, discounted business lunches, and curated set menus.

“Dubai’s gastronomy sector is more than an economic pillar; it is a platform that connects our community. With so many nationalities calling Dubai home, our restaurants, cafés, and culinary festivals serve as spaces where cultures converge, stories are shared, and connections are forged. Food brings us together in celebration of our shared humanity and remarkable diversity. This initiative provides residents and visitors with the opportunity to experience Dubai’s culinary excellence and discover why the city has gained international acclaim.”
The program highlights Dubai’s longstanding reputation as a global culinary hub while also supporting the growth of homegrown dining concepts, reflecting a balanced ecosystem that combines internationally recognized brands with locally rooted innovation.
