Middle East Restaurant Awards Cancels In-Person Celebration of 50 Best
The organization said celebration “would not be appropriate at this time.”
A planned awards ceremony in Abu Dhabi for the Middle East and North Africa’s 50 Best Restaurants is cancelling the in-person event because of the Israel-Hamas war.
The organization behind the awards, 50 Best, said it was moving the program online “in light of the current circumstances and challenges faced in the Middle East.” The statement further added: “50 Best believes that hosting an in-person, celebratory awards ceremony and associated events, would not be appropriate at this time.”
