When Vida Downtown launched its famous food truck, it was one of Dubai’s first unique hangouts offering a laid-back ambience and delicious street food. Now, its endearing free spirit gets a fantastic makeover – by artist and muralist Dina Saadi.
First 50 visitors will be treated with complimentary sliders as they watch Dina transform the food truck into a compelling piece of art on October 18 and 19 from 6pm to 10pm right outside Vida Downtown on Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Boulevard.
