Emirates wins In-Flight Dining Award from Saveur Magazine

Emirates last week announced that it has won Saveur Magazine’s Culinary Travel Award for Best In- Flight Dining: First Class and Business Class for the second consecutive year.

Saveur, an American- based, globally recognised culinary- travel magazine, asked an expert panel of world travellers and readers to identify the world's best cities, markets, restaurants, bars, hotels, airlines and other experiences. The panel cited Emirats’ seven-course meals served on Royal Doulton fine bone china, extensive range of vintage wines, and healthy fare as factors that set it apart from other entrants.

“Saveur is one of the most influential and respected voices in the culinary world,” said Terry Daly, Divisional Senior Vice President, Service Delivery. “Being recognised by a publication of Saveur’s calibre carries special weight and validates the attention to detail we put into our in- flight food and beverage programme. The quality of our cuisine reflects Emirates’ commitment to providing our passengers with the world’s best flying experience.”

Emirates’ regionally inspired dishes are prepared by five- star chefs, who customise each in- flight menu to reflect the culinary tastes of specific routes and destinations. Travellers can experience a different menu with each Emirates trip – from Japanese gastronomy served in specially designed crockery, to authentic Indian regional favourites.
