Expo 2020 Dubai to have over 200 eateries

Expo 2020 Dubai will host award-winning global chefs and new dining concepts across 200-plus eateries, including some Expo-exclusive eateries that suit every palate and budget.

More than 20 celebrity chefs, including David Myers, Matthew Kenney and Mory Sacko represent restaurants that have earned Michelin stars – the global hallmark of fine dining and culinary excellence.

Moreover, many internationally-acclaimed restaurants will also make their Dubai debut at Expo 2020.

Marjan Faraidooni, chief visitor experience officer at Expo 2020 said, "It's universally agreed that one of the best ways to discover a country is by sampling its cuisine, and at Expo 2020, visitors are able to eat their way around the world without leaving the UAE... Many of the 191 participating countries will also be serving authentic dishes and drinks at their pavilions."

Expo will also introduce an exciting range of bespoke food concepts, including Alkebulan African dining hall, curated by former opera singer-turned-restauranteur Alexander Smalls. It will feature 11 chef-led concepts from across the African continent; Taste of the Gulf, which celebrates the region's rich culinary heritage; and Talabat, a cloud kitchen with a fleet of riders from the food delivery platform; delivery robots and robotic baristas.
