If you’re a health-conscious foodie looking for a new cafe to try, Under 500 in Dubai could be for you.
The new homestyle cafe concept offers wholesome and healthy meal options, with each dish designed to have less than 500 calories. Menu items include a selection of salads, wraps and mains, with dishes such as chicken lettuce tacos, tasty grilled salmon and avocado, and lean steak and kale wraps proving popular. And if you are gluten-free, vegetarian, vegan or require a low-carb or high-protein diet, Under 500 offers those options too.
“We pride ourselves on only serving our customers the finest-quality foods, with the freshest ingredients. We wanted to offer our customers healthy, guilt-free dishes bursting with flavour, at an affordable price – that’s what Under 500 is all about,” says Fadi Ghali, co-founder of Under 500.
There are two outlets, one in Jumeirah Lakes Towers and the other in Business Bay, Downtown Dubai. For more visit www.under500.com.

What is graphene?
Graphene is extracted from graphite and is made up of pure carbon.
It is 200 times more resistant than steel and five times lighter than aluminum.
It conducts electricity better than any other material at room temperature.
It is thought that graphene could boost the useful life of batteries by 10 per cent.
Graphene can also detect cancer cells in the early stages of the disease.
The material was first discovered when Andre Geim and Konstantin Novoselov were 'playing' with graphite at the University of Manchester in 2004.
