Kitchen Nation aims to provide a platform for these individuals allowing them to nurture their talent through joined services and a support system.<\/p>\n<p>The idea of establishing a culinary incubator was born when Rami Salous, Founder and CEO of Kitchen Nation, struggled with getting permits for his newly bought food truck. Finding a small space around the city of Dubai was almost impossible, and renting a big space did not make sense for a start-up food entrepreneur. \u201cI purchased a food truck from the U.S. and brought it to Dubai when food trucks had just started to emerge in the region, however, getting all the paperwork sorted was time-consuming and costly,\u201d said Salous.<\/p>\n<p>The concept of a kitchen incubator has been enormously successful around the world in cities such as New York and London, however, it is still a novel concept in the UAE.<\/p>\n<p>Located in Jumeirah Lake Towers, Kitchen Nation is committed to bringing bootstrap entrepreneurs together under the same roof and giving them a helping hand to\u00a0take the first courageous step. \u201cThis kitchen is not a charity, but an empowering community transformation,\u201d said Salous.<\/p>\n<p>Kitchen Nation hopes to grow and become a world-renowned brand in the world of culinary incubators.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/blog.dubaicityguide.com\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/01\/kitchen1.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-4052\" alt=\"kitchen1\" src=\"http:\/\/blog.dubaicityguide.com\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/01\/kitchen1-1024x586.jpg\" width=\"625\" height=\"357\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blog.dubaicityguide.com\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/01\/kitchen1-1024x586.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/blog.dubaicityguide.com\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/01\/kitchen1-300x171.jpg 300w, https:\/\/blog.dubaicityguide.com\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/01\/kitchen1-624x357.jpg 624w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 625px) 100vw, 625px\" \/><\/a> <a href=\"http:\/\/blog.dubaicityguide.com\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/01\/kitchen2.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-4053\" alt=\"kitchen2\" src=\"http:\/\/blog.dubaicityguide.com\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/01\/kitchen2-1024x682.jpg\" width=\"625\" height=\"416\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blog.dubaicityguide.com\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/01\/kitchen2-1024x682.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/blog.dubaicityguide.com\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/01\/kitchen2-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/blog.dubaicityguide.com\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/01\/kitchen2-624x416.jpg 624w, https:\/\/blog.dubaicityguide.com\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/01\/kitchen2.jpg 1650w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 625px) 100vw, 625px\" \/><\/a> <a href=\"http:\/\/blog.dubaicityguide.com\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/01\/kitchen3.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-4054\" alt=\"kitchen3\" src=\"http:\/\/blog.dubaicityguide.com\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/01\/kitchen3-682x1024.jpg\" width=\"625\" height=\"938\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blog.dubaicityguide.com\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/01\/kitchen3-682x1024.jpg 682w, https:\/\/blog.dubaicityguide.com\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/01\/kitchen3-200x300.jpg 200w, https:\/\/blog.dubaicityguide.com\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/01\/kitchen3-624x936.jpg 624w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 625px) 100vw, 625px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Kitchen Nation, a fully equipped culinary incubator has opened its doors in the UAE; encouraging foodie entrepreneurs and innovators to bring their unique concepts to the F&amp;B market.
