Dubai has welcomed people from different nations throughout the years. In a multicultural society, individuals tend to bring in ethnic cultures and traditions. This is one of the reasons why Dubai is home to food cultures from different parts of the world.
Lately, there has been an increased demand for Eastern cuisine which started with K-Pop and K-Drama popularity in the region. Japanese food is relatively new in this region but has gained popularity due to the praise it has received in a short span of time. Japanese food looks very appealing and tastes different from what people generally have in Dubai.
Sushi is one of the most popular dishes in Japanese cuisine. It is prepared from vinegared rice, sprinkled with some sugar and salt. The filling of sushi brings variety to the dish. Seafood is mostly preferred to go as filling along with some raw vegetables and a side of soy sauce and wasabi. However, sushi also has made some changes to suit the local taste buds here.
