Everybody’s darling

The culture of brunch is intrinsically linked to the Middle East. Whether visitor or resident, a weekend brunch with opulent F&B offerings is a favourite pastime. Guests can choose among numerous options from extravagant high-end brunches to value-for-money options. Now, Covid-19 presents operators with new challenges.

Coffee meets eatery

Coffee is an integral part of the local culture in the Middle East. Over the past two decades, the region’s coffee business has experienced skyrocketing growth figures, making it one of the fastest growing coffee markets in the world.

Individuality at scale

Luxury hotels are perceived as the Middle East’s treasure and specialty. With more than 600 hotel properties in the pipeline, the region’s hotel market is booming. Though smaller in numbers, the segment of boutique hotels is on its way to becoming the fastest growing segment in the lodging industry.

Hungry for healthy choices

Every now and then, a new food trend sweeps across the MENA region – be it food trucks, ceviche, poke bowls or freak shakes.
