Dubai’s First AI-Driven Restaurant Set to Open This September

Short for ‘AI + man,’ Chef Aiman is built on decades of food science, molecular data, and global recipes. It analyzes ingredients by flavor profiles like texture, acidity, and umami, suggesting unexpected combinations later perfected by human chefs, including renowned Dubai-based chef Reif Othman.

The goal isn’t to replace chefs but to expand culinary creativity while cutting down kitchen waste. Aiman is programmed to reuse commonly discarded ingredients – like meat trimmings or fat – creating dishes that are both inventive and sustainable.

WOOHOO’s founders aim to license the AI to restaurants around the world, making tech-assisted cooking a new standard. This launch confirms Dubai’s role as a global hub for bold, tech-powered ideas.
