The month of Ramadan brings with it countless opportunities to dine out. Families spend time enjoying suhoor and iftar with delicious meals. Communities also distribute meals to the needy, ensuring there’s something for everyone in the holy month. 

However, COVID-19 is still around, and dining out may not be the safest option. So, the state of UAE has imposed new regulations for Ramadan 2021. We’ll dive into what these are below, but on the whole, they restrict dining out.

Thus, it’s a brilliant idea to start ordering food. Luckily, there are a lot of food delivery apps in the UAE that you can use. If you’re smart about how you spend, you can take advantage of countless Ramadan offers and save when you order in. 

New Restaurants Regulations

Starting April 13th, new restaurant regulations will be implemented for the month of Ramadan, keeping in mind the current COVID-19 situation in the country. 

Restaurants will not be able to take orders after 3 am and must close by 4 am. Restaurants are also forbidden from distributing iftar meals around their premises, with delivery being limited. 

Similarly, individuals cannot build iftar tents, share food in public places, and distribute iftar meals in front of their houses or mosques.  

Hearing these restrictions when Ramadan is just around the corner can be demotivating. It’s safe to say that this Ramadan will also be far from normal after last year’s. However, there’s still a lot you can do. 

There are countless food delivery apps for you to utilize in Ramadan 2021. These will make it easier for you to get food delivered for suhoor and iftar, so you can enjoy great food with your family.
