The New Year is just around the corner and we can’t get enough of the kitchen trends that we are about to explore — and we’re not just talking about what’s cooking! 2025 is a year all about embracing trends that bring together a lifestyle and how we redefine cooking and enjoy the heart of our home.

MVP Appliances, the largest supplier and sole distributor in the Emirates for high-end brands, including an expert in kitchen and home appliances is focused on the epitome of modern design and technological innovation. A lot of thought is going on behind the scenes to design the next generation of appliances in a way that will benefit both consumers and the environment in 2025.

Let’s dive into some of the key trends to enhance your cooking experience in 2025

  1. Sustainable Practices:

Sustainable trends in kitchen appliances are becoming significantly more focused on sustainability as homeowners seek an eco-friendly lifestyle. By opting for energy-efficient appliances, which include refrigerators, ovens, and dishwashers, plus sustainable materials in the kitchen such as wood and recycled glass, homeowners feel they can contribute to a more sustainable and responsible lifestyle.

Low-impact cooking technologies, such as induction hobs, offer more energy-efficient cooking as these appliances tend to work faster and require less energy than cooking on gas or electric stoves.

Hydro-cleaning appliances are more water-efficient than would be necessary for scrubbing or cleaning them, as only a small amount of water required for the steam cleaning process is comparatively low. Modular kitchen appliances and fixtures that are multi-functional can help reduce the need for excess materials and make kitchen spaces breathable and more efficient.

Overall, recycled kitchen appliances contribute to a circular economy, extending their lifecycle. This approach not only benefits the environment but also drives innovation and creativity from both a brand and a consumer perspective. Furthermore, consumers get to make eco-friendly choices to show their participation in environmental responsibility, while still enjoying modern, well-equipped, and stylish kitchen appliances.

  1. Smarter Technology, Smarter Cooking: 

Need more oat milk? Your fridge will let you know before you do. Say hello to appliances that are as connected as your smartphone. Some of the top features that contribute towards a smart appliance are health and safety features, which can enhance food safety with built-in thermometers to ensure that the meals are cooked at the right temperature. Smart overheat protection is also a commendable feature that prevents appliances such as microwaves and ovens from overheating by automatically shutting it off when overheating is detected. This energy-efficient appliance not only contributes to safety but also extends the lifespan of the appliances.

Induction cooking technologies are growing in popularity due to their speed, efficiency in energy consumption, and cost savings, helping consumers save on their resources.

High Tech Refrigerators are trending and are smarter than ever not just for the ease of use, but also to enhance a standard of living. Features like, touchscreens, inventory tracking, and BioFresh options help reduce wastage of food, check available items, and enhance convenience.

Wellness-focused appliances, such as Steam ovens, air fryers, Cold-press Juicers, and sous-vide machines which promote healthier cooking are in high demand as they support a balanced diet without having to compromise on the taste.

Together, these health-focused appliances make nutritious cooking accessible and convenient. They reflect a shift toward conscious, balanced eating and wellness-centered living, empowering users to enjoy healthier meals and make positive lifestyle choices right from their kitchen.

  1. Designs and Aesthetics:

Kitchens are bidding farewell to the colourful era and welcoming minimalist, sleek, warm wood tones and warm terracotta hues. Appliances with sustainable materials such as recycled metals or eco-friendly coatings, are trending as consumers are understanding the importance of conscious living. Appliances in matte and pastel colours make a bold statement, allowing homeowners to add warmth into their kitchens. Every household has a willingness to experiment with their kitchen space, making it into a hub for gathering and cooking together and enjoying the whole experience while doing so.

Drawer appliances are gaining popularity due to their focus on space. These appliances are family-friendly as they can be installed at any height suitable for children, encouraging them to prepare their snacks or drinks and promoting self-service among young children. They also contribute to a sleek finish making it very appealing to the space and last but not least, the versatility in using these drawer appliances comes with multi-functionality, allowing a variety of uses in a single appliance and it also saves on the utility bills!

Designers are focusing on shaping the elements of the appliances in a way that is appealing to consumers with less space consumption and ease of use. In brief, design plays a vital role in kitchen appliances by blending technology, functionality, and visuals, making kitchen spaces more enjoyable and resourceful.

  1. Food Processors:

Food processors are multi-functional appliances used for chopping, dicing, grating, etc. which are gaining more consumer attention as they support the preparation of a wide range of dishes from salads and sauces to dough and dips, saving time and money. They are extremely user-friendly with great featured controls and safety mechanisms that make them accessible to cooks and consumers of any skill level. Food processors also encourage healthy eating habits amongst households due to their ease of creating simple dressings, sauces, and healthy salads. They can also be timed and controlled through innovative features and embedded technology which function on pre-programmed settings and touch controls that help manage the whole process of preparing a meal.

In honour of the UAE’s 54th National Day, INDIKAYA presents a one day dining experience that reflects the nation’s spirit of unity through refined Indian flavours. On Monday, December 2nd, guests are invited to savour a special Eid Al Etihad multi course menu shaped by craftsmanship, balance, and cultural depth. In recognition of the 54 years of the Union, the experience valued at AED 350 will be offered at an exclusive AED 160 per person, a generous fifty four percent tribute to the occasion.

Rather than celebrating with grandeur, INDIKAYA embraces the day with sincerity. “National Day brings together everyone who calls the UAE home,” said Chef Hemant, Indikaya. “Our intention is simple. We honour the day through thoughtful dishes that respect where we come from and reflect who we are today.”

The Eid Al Etihad menu is composed as a gentle progression of flavours. The experience begins with an Amuse Bouche that introduces the meal’s sensorial rhythm. Guests can then choose from two vegetarian appetisers, the Jaitooni Malai Paneer Tikka with its velvety marinade or the Subz Shikampuri Kebab shaped by centuries old culinary practice. Non vegetarian selections include the Malabari Fish Tikka inspired by coastal seasoning traditions, or the Kesari Murgh Ki Chaap, a saffron guided preparation known for its depth and aroma.

The main course highlights dishes that balance richness with restraint. Vegetarian guests may enjoy the Khumbh Makhane Ka Salan, a harmony of mushrooms and fox nuts in a layered gravy, or the Paneer Methi Ki Bhurji where the creaminess of paneer meets the gentle bitterness of fenugreek. Non vegetarian options include Kandhari Murgh, known for its delicate acidity, and Lagan Ka Ghost, a slow cooked lamb dish that showcases the patience and precision of Indian culinary artistry. Each main course is complemented with Dal Makhani, Minted Kabuli Pulao, and Assorted Indian Breads.

The experience concludes with two timeless desserts. Berry Phirni offers a cool and creamy finale with soft fruit notes, while Malai Kulfi delivers a dense, nostalgic sweetness. Both desserts close the menu on a composed and celebratory note.

With limited availability, this National Day menu invites guests to share a moment that feels both intimate and festive. Early reservations are strongly encouraged.

Konjiki Hototogisu, Dubai’s Michelin Bib Gourmand 2024 & 2025 Japanese restaurant, is giving early risers a reason to set their alarms. Best known for its award-winning ramen, the Tokyo-born brand is expanding beyond its lunch and dinner repertoire with the launch of a Breakfast Menu. Served exclusively at its newly opened Palm Jumeirah Mall branch, the menu will be available from 21st November.

Slightly more relaxed in spirit than its Tokyo original, but with the same commitment to craft, balance and flavour, the new Palm Jumeirah location has quickly gained a loyal following for its shoyu ramen, gyoza, tempura and kushiyaki plates enjoyed at the counter. Now, the restaurant brings its Japanese culinary sensibility to the morning table with a concept designed for both fans and families alike.

The breakfast experience remains refined, thoughtful and unmistakably Konjiki: Japanese-inspired comfort, fresh produce and precise flavours, all served in a casual, weekend-friendly setting.

Available every Friday to Sunday (walk-ins only), 8:30am to 11:30am, the menu features two breakfast formats:

Breakfast mains

A line-up of morning favourites with a Konjiki twist, including Sourdough Burrata, Hummus Beetroot Sourdough, Corn Fritters with Poached Egg, Crispy Eggs Croissant, Chicken Katsu Sando, Smoked Salmon Toast and Grilled Beef Bacon Toast.

Build-your-own Breakfast Bento tray

A fresh take on the traditional Japanese bento, allowing guests to customise one main, one salad, one soup and one side. Options include Wakame Salad, Kenchin-Jiru Soup, Fruits & Granola and more. Each bento includes eggs cooked to preference and a cup of green tea, with speciality coffee available on request. Guests can also choose between one soup and pancakes to complete their meal.

Designed with families in mind, the new Palm Jumeirah space is the first Konjiki outlet in the UAE to introduce a family-focused dining experience, complete with a dedicated kids’ menu and a specially curated soft-play garden for children aged three years and above.
