A chef who travelled around the world on a culinary adventure has landed in Dubai – bringing with him the most exciting set of street food creations the city has seen.
Emanuele Di Tullio gathered hundreds of recipes on his global travels with a particular focus on authentic eat-on-the-go dishes.
Now he has put them together for the launch of Str.Eat Culture, located in the new Hilton Al Jadaf hotel in Dubai’s Culture Village.
Standout street food favourites include an amazing Vietnamese hotdog, Italian La Paida bites stuffed with a range of fillings and a classic portion of fish and chips which can be traced back to the methods used on the streets of London in the 1900s.
Each Friday night, Chef Di Tullio hits the kitchen to put together his unique southern fried chicken, using a secret combination of flavours he picked up on his journey.
He said: “On a career going back 17 years I spent time in kitchens in all parts of the world and I was able to get some amazing and unique recipes that I have now brought to Dubai.
“I was also on a cruise liner for several years which had a focus on food – and that took me to some places you would not normally go for inspiration.
“The people I met along the way helped drive this menu and we cannot wait for people to get stuck into these street food dishes.
“It is all about having fun and sampling a massive range of flavours with your friends and family.”
Str.Eat Culture is part of the new food and drink scene developing in Al Jadaf – a historical maritime location in Dubai located next to the creek.
It has already become a favourite with the new local community developing in the area and is open for dinner all week long from 6pm into the early hours.
