Rawa Wins the 2025 Superior Taste Award for its Pomegranate & Chia Seeds Fruit Yogurt from the International Taste Institute
The award came after the product underwent a rigorous evaluation by an international jury comprising more than 250 chefs from 20 countries around the world, including chefs who collectively hold 86 Michelin stars. The product was judged based on the first impression and according to precise sensory standards including: overall appearance, flavor, final sensation, texture, and aroma.
The "Pomegranate & Chia Seeds Fruit Yogurt" received three stars in this evaluation — the highest rating granted by the institute — reflecting the exceptional excellence of the product in terms of taste and quality, and confirming Rawa's leadership in offering products that meet international standards.
This achievement marks a continuation of Rawa's successful journey, following its 2023 win of the same award for its 'Fruit & Four Cereal Yogurt.' This strengthens the company's status as the first Qatari dairy producer to receive this prestigious recognition. It is worth noting that Rawa exports its products to several Arab countries, where they have been well received by consumers.
The 'Pomegranate & Chia Seeds Fruit Yogurt' is considered a complete and healthy product, combining: a high amount of dietary fiber, immunity-boosting and energy-enhancing vitamins, and natural antioxidants that help protect cells — making it a superfood.
It is an ideal choice for consumers looking for rich taste and health benefits in one product.
Mr. Mohammed Ali Al-Kuwari, CEO of Gulf Food Production, stated:
'We take great pride in this award, which reflects our ongoing progress in delivering products that meet global standards. This new recognition serves as an international testament to the quality and innovation behind our unique and healthy yogurt product, and it reinforces our leading position in both local and international markets.'
Mr. Al-Kuwari added that the company's strategy focuses on innovation and manufacturing quality, by adopting the latest food production technologies, implementing strict quality control processes, and leveraging the efforts of the research and development team, which continuously works to improve Flavors and nutritional values without compromising consumer taste.
He confirmed that Rawa will continue developing more products that combine quality, refined taste, and health benefits, to remain the first choice for consumers in Qatar and beyond.

A Nordic Japanese Experience Is Headed to West Town
is the Associate Editor for Eater's Midwest region, and has been covering Chicago's dining scene for over a decade. A Nordic Japanese fine dining restaurant is set to open in West Town in September. Atsumeru will be a tasting menu experience from chef Devin Denzer located inside the former Temporis space at 933 N. Ashland Avenue. The menu will showcase Nordic techniques with Japanese ingredients. Denzer says the inspiration came from his time cooking under a former Noma chef, as well as Inua — the Nordic Japanese restaurant in Tokyo that earned two Michelin stars before shutting down during the pandemic. Expect dishes that highlight seafood and seasonal produce, like a rich sturgeon course that pairs the fish with crispy puffed rice, ginger-scallion paste, and tom kha broth. The tasting experience will span 10 to 12 courses and cost $165 per person. There will be three seatings a night, with up to eight guests in each time slot. Atsumeru is taking over a space that has been completely renovated. A fire caused extensive damages to the building in 2023, resulting in the closure of Michelin-starred Temporis. Similar to Atsumeru, Temporis was a fine dining restaurant that accommodated a limited number of guests each night. Denzer says that with the remodel, everything has been rebuilt, including new HVAC and plumbing systems. Denzer and his wife Paola, an architectural designer, have crafted an interior that emphasizes earthy tones, gold accents, and subtle nods to Japanese aesthetics. The basement floor below the main dining area was also lowered by two feet. This allowed the team to add a downstairs lounge and chef's counter, where diners can linger for a pre- or post-meal drink. The moody subterranean level adds another element to the experience, too: Patrons will start dinner off in the new space — either at the counter or a table — with some opening bites before heading upstairs. Denzer would like to eventually offer a simplified menu downstairs for a more leisurely dining option. Atsumeru will be an evolution of Devin Denzer's pop-up dinner series, Loon. Atsumeru While Atsumeru will be Denzer's first Chicago restaurant, he's been cooking locally for years. After working in kitchens across Minneapolis and Madison, Wisconsin, Denzer moved to Chicago right around the time the pandemic started. With restaurants shuttered, he began hosting pop-up dinners out of a friend's apartment. It soon evolved into a monthly series called Loon, and Denzer describes Atsumeru as a natural progression of the pop-up. Guests who have dined at Loon may recognize some of the offerings, such as chawanmushi, a Japanese steamed egg dish, and the palate-cleansing Milk and Pine, which features milk ice cream rolled in white chocolate and served with a broth of fermented pine needle juice and pine needle oil. Denzer has brought on Willow Waling to run the beverage program. Waling, who oversaw front-of-house operations with Loon, is now curating the wine pairings. Her cocktails will highlight Nordic and Japanese spirits and include concoctions like a barley soju martini with basil, and an Old Fashioned layered with brown butter and Okinawan black sugar. Vegetable-forward juice pairings and teas will be available as well. The fine dining scene is highly competitive right now, but Denzer is hoping that the combination of Nordic Japanese cuisine and the restaurant's intimate, bi-level setting will help Atsumeru stand out. The restaurant's name translates to 'collect' in Japanese, and Denzer says it's perfect for what he's trying to accomplish. 'I took [the word] to mean 'to come together,' like share a common meal and just gather memories,' Denzer says. 'It's like a cheesy way to put it but … I'm pretty excited for it.' Atsumeru, 933 N. Ashland Avenue, planned for a September opening

Miami's summer slowdown claims even more restaurants
Less than two months after Chef Nando Chang won a James Beard Award as the head chef of Itamae AO, the restaurant announced it was closing on Saturday — the latest in a summer of high-profile restaurant closures. Why it matters: This year's seasonal slowdown has been marked by a seemingly never-ending stream of social media posts thanking customers for their support and news outlets announcing final services. Between the lines: Itamae AO's future became unclear in late June after his sister, award-winning chef Valerie Chang, announced she was stepping away from Maty's, the Peruvian restaurant next door. Customers accessed Itamae through the adjoining Maty's space. In an Instagram post Tuesday night, the intimate, Michelin star restaurant said it wasn't going away for good: "We're excited to find our new home." The big picture: Just shy of the season's halfway mark, the Miami Herald this month reported that many local chefs and restaurant owners felt this summer was "shaping up to be the worst" one yet, citing "non-existent" foot traffic and a drop in reservations. Others blamed the rising cost of food, rent and insurance. State of plate: The outlet at the time listed nine recent closures, ranging from Michelin-stared restaurants like Maty's to longtime favorites like Miami Beach's Sardinia Italian restaurant, which closed after almost 20 years. Since then, a handful of others have shuttered, too: CHICA, which closed after six years; Piegari Italian restaurant, which closed after just one year; and Erba, the award-winning Italian restaurant, which operated in Coral Gables for about two years. What they're saying: "For a lot of our businesses, most of them being outdoors, heat" is a factor, Emi Guerra, co-founder of Breakwater Hospitality Group, which owns restaurants across South Florida, told Axios. Still, a restaurant's location — whether it's in a busy, walkable neighborhood or has a strong local clientele — plus its ability to pivot over the summer to things like events or parties, can also determine how hard it's hit during the summer slowdown, he said. Meanwhile, while speaking on a podcast in May, Felix Bendersky, founder of F&B Hospitality Leasing, said one of the reasons the summer slowdown is punching harder is because Miami's peak season is "getting less and less." While it used to end in June and start up again in September, Bendersky said it is now more likely to end after the Formula 1 Miami Grand Prix, which was the first weekend in May this year, and restart around Art Basel, which isn't until December.
