The Dubai Municipality and Health Authority are working on a policy to force restaurants to reveal the number of calories in each dish. You may as well say goodbye to your favourite restaurants now, because you’ll probably lose your appetite when you see how much you’ve really been eating. But don’t worry, these healthy restaurants will keep you full and satisfied.
