There are few other places in the world where is there such a market for meal delivery plans. Once the domain of those losing weight or bodybuilders on strict macronutrient plans, the UAE has adopted meal delivery plans as its own version of high-end fast food.
The plans usually include five days of meals – three meals a day – delivered daily to your door. Some offer drinks or juices in the plans, some are under the guidance of nutritionists and others are just for convenience. Some claim to be “healthy”, others claim to help you lose weight. Whatever you want, it’s there, if you have the cash.
With more disposable income, a culture of long working hours and a large number of people who either can’t or won’t cook, UAE residents are the perfect clientele for companies offering daily meals delivered to your door, especially in a climate where health food is becoming more fashionable.
I take great care over what I eat and know how to make good, healthy food quickly and easily, while juggling my worklife and dedicated daily yoga and gym practice, so I am possibly a tough cookie to review meal plans. For me, paying someone to deliver my daily nutrition involves a lot of trust – I want to know that the food is clean and nutritious, good value and, quite frankly, better than anything I can cook myself at home.
I tried five meal delivery plans and here’s what I found.
Love Food
I first tried LoveFood last year and one year later, it still offers consistently high quality. All the meat, fish, fruit and vegetables are organic, yet their prices represent great value. My plan, which was three meals (two with meat or fish, and breakfast often containing eggs), two snacks and three infused waters, was Dh186 a day (cheaper options are available). This is great value if you think about the price of a couple of takeaway coffees and a simple lunch out.
For me, the only downside was that I needed to add extra food as my “lifestyle” plan was around 1,500 calories and was not quite enough for my active lifestyle and long days. The good thing is that they are very flexible in adjusting plans to suit individual needs.
The food is nutrient-dense, diverse, colourful, delicious and not once during the week did I leave a single meal unfinished or feel bored. Snacks, of which you have two a day, such as kale chips and chocolate bites were creative, showing they are trying hard to make the plans interesting. Thai curry was one of my favourite meals though the lamb shank on squash puree was also amazing. I also loved the fruit-infused waters, of which you have three each day, so staying hydrated isn’t a case of just drinking water each day. Another bonus is tthat their food comes in glass containers – which you send back – rather than the plastic containers most commonly used here.
Their system of having the daily menu online didn’t seem to work for me, as often my food didn’t match the menu. In addition to when my meals had been changed to accommodate my food allergies, I was still not given a menu accordingly, so I didn’t always know what I was eating. The focus with Love Food isn’t calories, but simply delivering wholesome, natural food, which in my opinion, is a great philosophy. They also have a nutritionist available for telephone consultations prior to beginning the plans.

Eat Well
This restaurant at Dubai Herbal and Treatment Centre off Oud Metha Road is a little gem. The food is top level cuisine: healthy, creative and organic, with paleo, gluten- and dairy-free options. Everything on the menu from the sweet potato fries to stuffed zucchini is top quality.
It has also started offering meal plans, which are created by the in-house medical centre at Dubai Herbal and Treatment Centre, and clients can speak with nutritionists before signing up.
I opted for the vegan plan as I am roughly 80 per cent vegan for ethical and ecological reasons. As with LoveFood, I didn’t feel there was quite enough food for me on the “vegan athlete” plan, which provided around 1,800 kcals a day through three meals and two snacks.
Their creativity is great, especially considering the challenges in making a vegan meal plan exciting. The vegan chilli sin carne was one of my favourite meals, in addition to the vegan cream cheese, which I was convinced was goats cheese. They also managed to make gluten-free bread taste like normal bread, which is a dream to anyone with gluten intolerance. On the downside, I can’t tolerate too many nuts and seeds and I felt that there was a little too much tofu for my liking, which can interfere with women’s hormones due to its high phyto-oestrogen levels if eaten in large quantities.
I loved the comprehensive nutritional breakdown of your food each day and these guys also use glass, so they score eco points from me too. Price wise, it’s also great.

Detox Delight
Detox Delight is primarily known for its juice cleanses, but also has soups and snacks. I tried the Eat Clean programme, which includes three meals a day, one of which is usually a soup or smoothie, plus two cold-pressed juices. Personally, I’m not keen on a liquid diet – juices or smoothies – as I would prefer to eat my calories, but for people on the go or unable to ingest enough good-quality nutrients, they can be a good natural supplement to your daily diet.
The meals were tiny, often the size, for me, of a side portion, and mostly food I already make myself at home. One meal was an undressed portion of quinoa with chopped carrots, tomatoes and zucchini. Highlights included the charcoal-infused lemonade and Asian salad with mango and avocado, while the thick vegetable soup was one of my favourite meals, though not enough by itself. Unfortunately I found the undressed salads and gazpacho quite bland.
I like the concept and the passion of its founder, Nicole, but at Dh299 a day, five days a week, over a month, it is more than I spend on rent and too expensive for me.

Smith St Paleo
Rather than signing up to a full meal plan, Smith St Paleo offers an excellent alternative for healthy meals. The UAE’s answer to Deliciously Ella, Holly Smith began her food journey by developing a passion for cooking (and sharing her creations on Instagram) while flying for more than a decade with Emirates. She is known for her hearty vegan bliss balls, which are available at her husband Marcus’s gym, Inner Fight.
With seven meal options, including a vegan, paleo porridge and chicken skewers on coconut cauliflower rice with satay sauce, everything has been inspired by cuisines from all corners of the globe. The food is colourful, nutrient dense and, most of all, fresh. There are no preservatives, or additives, so the food has a shelf life of two to three days.
What makes Smith St Paleo stand out from other meal plans is its sauces – homemade and junk-free, ranging from satay or tahini sauce to chimichuri. Holly has spent years developing the recipes, from her salted caramel balls to her chimichuri beef and her passion is evident. It’s appetising, filling and most of all, tasty.
With pick up either from Inner Fight in Al Quoz or delivery by Deliveroo or Uber Eats, Smith St Paleo offers a solution somewhere between the grabbing food on the go and committing to a meal plan, with the cost of two main meals and hearty porridge breakfast coming to Dh160, or Dh185 with three 35g bliss balls.
At Dh60 per meal, it’s also good value for the amount of work and ingredients. Portions are big so you’ll never feel hungry, especially when starting the day with the banana nut porridge. Every ingredient is clearly labelled on the packs with full nutrition information, and you can pair the breakfast with main meals, bliss balls and two vegan shakes to custom-make your own fresh meal days.
Smith St Paleo’s food cart can visit office buildings around Dubai and take orders online.

Price: Dh160 for two main meals and breakfast

stm’d
I stumbled across this company on Instagram, the home of beautiful food pics. The meals looked interesting, attractive and creative. Sadly, it didn’t quite live up to its Instgram account for me. The food was fairly bland, in colour and taste. The quinoa pudding, for example, tasted like very plain quinoa with some honey and pecan nuts. Chia pudding, on the other hand, with strawberries for breakfast was tasty and simple, and definitely worked well for the prettiness factor.
Everything on the menu, they say is steamed, hence the name. I really enjoyed the veggie balls on a beetroot base and their salmon on a veggie mash but, generally speaking, the food was not as appealing as I had hoped. The portions were fairly good sizes though and there was certainly variety.
For people who don’t have time or desire to cook, it’s a good lower budget option. Price wise they are competitive – Dh110 to Dh160 a day (three meals and two snacks), depending on the plan – however, I think they need to tweak their meal plans a little as certain things don’t work well for delivery, such as avocado, which if undressed, will simply turn black – in one meal, I thought it was mushrooms. In a fruit salad, again, undressed apples discolour and smell bad.

The smuggler
Eldarir had arrived at JFK in January 2020 with three suitcases, containing goods he valued at $300, when he was directed to a search area.
Officers found 41 gold artefacts among the bags, including amulets from a funerary set which prepared the deceased for the afterlife.
Also found was a cartouche of a Ptolemaic king on a relief that was originally part of a royal building or temple.
The largest single group of items found in Eldarir’s cases were 400 shabtis, or figurines.
Khouli conviction
Khouli smuggled items into the US by making false declarations to customs about the country of origin and value of the items.
According to Immigration and Customs Enforcement, he provided “false provenances which stated that [two] Egyptian antiquities were part of a collection assembled by Khouli's father in Israel in the 1960s” when in fact “Khouli acquired the Egyptian antiquities from other dealers”.
He was sentenced to one year of probation, six months of home confinement and 200 hours of community service in 2012 after admitting buying and smuggling Egyptian antiquities, including coffins, funerary boats and limestone figures.
For sale
A number of other items said to come from the collection of Ezeldeen Taha Eldarir are currently or recently for sale.
Their provenance is described in near identical terms as the British Museum shabti: bought from Salahaddin Sirmali, "authenticated and appraised" by Hossen Rashed, then imported to the US in 1948.

The most expensive investment mistake you will ever make
When is the best time to start saving in a pension? The answer is simple – at the earliest possible moment. The first pound, euro, dollar or dirham you invest is the most valuable, as it has so much longer to grow in value. If you start in your twenties, it could be invested for 40 years or more, which means you have decades for compound interest to work its magic.
“You get growth upon growth upon growth, followed by more growth. The earlier you start the process, the more it will all roll up,” says Chris Davies, chartered financial planner at The Fry Group in Dubai.
This table shows how much you would have in your pension at age 65, depending on when you start and how much you pay in (it assumes your investments grow 7 per cent a year after charges and you have no other savings).

“When you sweat a lot, you lose a lot of salt and other electrolytes from your body. If your electrolytes drop enough, you will be at risk of cramping. To prevent salt deficiency, simply add an electrolyte mix to your water.”

“Don’t make the mistake of thinking you can ride as fast or as far during the summer as you do in cooler weather. The heat will make you expend more energy to maintain a speed that might normally be comfortable, so pace yourself when riding during the hotter parts of the day.”

Mercer, the investment consulting arm of US services company Marsh & McLennan, expects its wealth division to at least double its assets under management (AUM) in the Middle East as wealth in the region continues to grow despite economic headwinds, a company official said.
Mercer Wealth, which globally has $160 billion in AUM, plans to boost its AUM in the region to $2-$3bn in the next 2-3 years from the present $1bn, said Yasir AbuShaban, a Dubai-based principal with Mercer Wealth.
“Within the next two to three years, we are looking at reaching $2 to $3 billion as a conservative estimate and we do see an opportunity to do so,” said Mr AbuShaban.
Mercer does not directly make investments, but allocates clients’ money they have discretion to, to professional asset managers. They also provide advice to clients.
“We have buying power. We can negotiate on their (client’s) behalf with asset managers to provide them lower fees than they otherwise would have to get on their own,” he added.
Mercer Wealth’s clients include sovereign wealth funds, family offices, and insurance companies among others.
From its office in Dubai, Mercer also looks after Africa, India and Turkey, where they also see opportunity for growth.
Wealth creation in Middle East and Africa (MEA) grew 8.5 per cent to $8.1 trillion last year from $7.5tn in 2015, higher than last year’s global average of 6 per cent and the second-highest growth in a region after Asia-Pacific which grew 9.9 per cent, according to consultancy Boston Consulting Group (BCG). In the region, where wealth grew just 1.9 per cent in 2015 compared with 2014, a pickup in oil prices has helped in wealth generation.
BCG is forecasting MEA wealth will rise to $12tn by 2021, growing at an annual average of 8 per cent.
Drivers of wealth generation in the region will be split evenly between new wealth creation and growth of performance of existing assets, according to BCG.
Another general trend in the region is clients’ looking for a comprehensive approach to investing, according to Mr AbuShaban.
“Institutional investors or some of the families are seeing a slowdown in the available capital they have to invest and in that sense they are looking at optimizing the way they manage their portfolios and making sure they are not investing haphazardly and different parts of their investment are working together,” said Mr AbuShaban.
Some clients also have a higher appetite for risk, given the low interest-rate environment that does not provide enough yield for some institutional investors. These clients are keen to invest in illiquid assets, such as private equity and infrastructure.
“What we have seen is a desire for higher returns in what has been a low-return environment specifically in various fixed income or bonds,” he said.
“In this environment, we have seen a de facto increase in the risk that clients are taking in things like illiquid investments, private equity investments, infrastructure and private debt, those kind of investments were higher illiquidity results in incrementally higher returns.”
The Abu Dhabi Investment Authority, one of the largest sovereign wealth funds, said in its 2016 report that has gradually increased its exposure in direct private equity and private credit transactions, mainly in Asian markets and especially in China and India. The authority’s private equity department focused on structured equities owing to “their defensive characteristics.”

Real estate tokenisation project
Dubai launched the pilot phase of its real estate tokenisation project last month.
The initiative focuses on converting real estate assets into digital tokens recorded on blockchain technology and helps in streamlining the process of buying, selling and investing, the Dubai Land Department said.
Dubai’s real estate tokenisation market is projected to reach Dh60 billion ($16.33 billion) by 2033, representing 7 per cent of the emirate’s total property transactions, according to the DLD.

The more serious side of specialty coffee
While the taste of beans and freshness of roast is paramount to the specialty coffee scene, so is sustainability and workers’ rights.
The bulk of genuine specialty coffee companies aim to improve on these elements in every stage of production via direct relationships with farmers. For instance, Mokha 1450 on Al Wasl Road strives to work predominantly with women-owned and -operated coffee organisations, including female farmers in the Sabree mountains of Yemen.
Because, as the boutique’s owner, Garfield Kerr, points out: “women represent over 90 per cent of the coffee value chain, but are woefully underrepresented in less than 10 per cent of ownership and management throughout the global coffee industry.”
One of the UAE’s largest suppliers of green (meaning not-yet-roasted) beans, Raw Coffee, is a founding member of the Partnership of Gender Equity, which aims to empower female coffee farmers and harvesters.
Also, globally, many companies have found the perfect way to recycle old coffee grounds: they create the perfect fertile soil in which to grow mushrooms.
