Plant-Powered Journeys: From Mediterranean Mezze to African Stews, Emirates Elevates Vegan Cuisine

Emirates Airlines unveiled a bold new chapter in its culinary story: a move away from engineered substitutes and toward authentic, whole-food creations. The airline’s chefs are crafting dishes that feel vibrant, rooted in tradition, and unmistakably genuine. Passengers can now savor flavors inspired by Mediterranean mezze and Levantine grain salads, Asian noodle bowls with fresh vegetables and aromatic spices, and a wide range of African stews, from chakalaka in South Africa and sukuma wiki in Kenya, to Ugandan groundnut stew, Tunisian lablabi, Senegalese thieboudienne, Ivorian attiéké, Guinean peanut stew, Egyptian koshari, and Tanzanian mchicha.
