The top 20 places to eat in the Middle East and North Africa, chosen by our correspondents – The National

The World’s 50 Best group is localising its famed annual list of restaurants for the Mena region this year, in an attempt to promote food-related travel.

“Regional lists show us that diving deeper into a certain culture and market has great benefits ... for a region’s cuisine and hospitality sector, as well as for people interested in gastro tourism, wherein they travel not only to see a new place, but also to be part of its food scene,” says William Drew, director of content for the World’s 50 Best.

On February 7, at a ceremony in Conrad Abu Dhabi Etihad Towers, the 50 best restaurants across the Middle East and North Africa will be announced – chosen by a panel of 250 anonymous voters from the F&B, travel and publishing industries.
