At the intersection of legislation, diplomacy, and impact, Maha Al Gargawi is building the policy architecture that powers Dubai’s private sector—and by extension, its future.

As Vice President of Business Advocacy, Maha leads Dubai Chambers’ efforts to drive a business-friendly environment grounded in proactive dialogue and regulatory foresight. 𝐇𝐞𝐫 𝐦𝐢𝐬𝐬𝐢𝐨𝐧: ensure that business voices don’t just echo—but shape national strategy.

From convening business councils and crafting sector-specific legislation to aligning policy with the UAE’s long-term vision, Maha is a critical force in driving economic diversification and competitiveness. Under her stewardship, advocacy becomes action—designed to unlock private sector growth and global investor confidence.

Her influence isn’t confined to the boardroom. Maha’s prior leadership at Expo 2020 Dubai—as Senior Vice President of Political Affairs and official spokesperson—saw her navigate international relations, media diplomacy, and global partnerships, leaving behind a legacy of multilateral impact. She’s also been a legal strategist for the UAE’s nuclear energy programme, a voice on national CSR initiatives, and a board member of one of the region’s first bilateral business councils.

At 𝐅𝐨𝐨𝐝 𝐁𝐮𝐬𝐢𝐧𝐞𝐬𝐬 𝐅𝐨𝐫𝐮𝐦 2025, Maha brings a powerful lens on how regulation, international relations, and private enterprise intersect in shaping the future of food service in the Middle East.

Immersive. Intentional. Instagrammable.

From mood lighting to music-led menus, restaurants today are not just serving food—they’re staging experiences.
But is all this spectacle driving real value? Or just fleeting social media buzz?

At the 𝐔𝐀𝐄𝐑𝐆 𝐅𝐨𝐨𝐝 𝐒𝐞𝐫𝐯𝐢𝐜𝐞 𝐅𝐨𝐫𝐮𝐦 2025, this panel unpacks the high-stakes game of experiential dining—what works, what wows, and what wears off.

This isn’t just hospitality with flair.
It’s a business case for design, drama, and delivering beyond the plate.
From CAPEX-heavy concepts to culture-rich formats, from Instagrammable moments to emotional memory—this is the business of dining that dares.

𝐖𝐡𝐚𝐭’𝐬 𝐎𝐧 𝐓𝐡𝐞 𝐏𝐥𝐚𝐭𝐭𝐞𝐫?
A sharp look at the ROI (and risk) behind today’s dining spectacles:
• Are immersive restaurant concepts delivering ROI—or just hype?
• Dining as entertainment, theatre, culture—where is it resonating?
• What today’s guests expect beyond the menu
• High CAPEX, high pressure: how operators are measuring success
• The impact of social media, design, and storytelling in dining experiences
• From Michelin to music-led menus—how far is too far?
• What makes an experience repeat-worthy, not just memorable

• Jitin Joshi – Chef and Culinary Leader, 𝐑𝐞𝐯𝐨𝐥𝐯𝐞𝐫 (Culinary Arts Group)
• Ashok Kumar Kalra (Chef) – Chef and Entrepreneur, 𝐋𝐚𝐯𝐚𝐧𝐠 / 𝐌𝐮𝐠𝐡𝐚𝐥 𝐌𝐚𝐡𝐚𝐥 𝐆𝐞𝐧𝐞𝐫𝐚𝐥 𝐓𝐫𝐚𝐝𝐢𝐧𝐠 & 𝐂𝐨𝐧𝐭𝐫𝐚𝐜𝐭𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐂𝐨

Meet Amarinder Singh Daih
Founder, Lavash

From India’s fast-paced metros to Dubai’s multicultural heart, Amarinder Singh Daih has spent over a decade crafting culinary experiences that celebrate connection, creativity, and authenticity.

A restaurateur and hospitality consultant, Amarinder’s journey began with transforming a single bakery into a multi-location brand—followed by a series of award-nominated ventures blending Indian roots with global flair. His early successes in Hyderabad, Bengaluru, Delhi, and Mumbai helped shape India’s evolving fast-casual and fine-dining scene.

Now in Dubai, he’s the force behind Lavash—a bold “𝐃𝐢𝐧𝐞 𝐀𝐫𝐨𝐮𝐧𝐝 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐖𝐨𝐫𝐥𝐝” concept that reimagines what hospitality looks and feels like. Starting from a humble test kitchen in Jumeirah, Lavash has grown into a multi-outlet brand known for its globally inspired unlimited menu, AR-powered storytelling, and rotating chef collabs that bring cultures together on a plate.

Whether he’s advising new F&B brands or pushing the envelope with immersive dining tech, Amarinder’s north star remains clear: hospitality rooted in warmth, generosity, and joy. His vision for Lavash is both expansive and grounded—proof that innovation and soul can co-exist at scale.

At Food Service Forum 2025, Amarinder will share how to grow experiential dining concepts that stay deeply personal—where every guest feels welcomed, celebrated, and inspired.
