18 March 2026, Dubai, UAE – This Eid weekend, CarniStore, the UAE-born modern meat supplier uniting heritage butchery with a digital-first approach, brings its community-first spirit to Alserkal Avenue with a series of casual, flavour-driven pop-ups.
As the Alserkal Avenue community comes together for Eid celebrations, the space transforms into a lively, open-air destination filled with energy, creativity, and great food. Rooted in the spirit of togetherness, CarniStore’s activations invites guests to gather, share, and celebrate over bold, comforting flavours in a relaxed, social setting.
On Saturday, 21 March, CarniStore partners with Lila as part of the “Lila & Friends” Eid Fest, presenting a one-day-only taco collaboration inspired by wood-fired cooking and vibrant street food traditions. The menu is centred around depth of flavour and live-fire technique, featuring:
- Skirt Steak Taco – AED 40, showcasing CarniStore skirt steak, grilled to highlight its richness and intensity
- Charcoal Chicken “A La Mexicana”, inspired by the roadside grills of Central Mexico, with spatchcocked chicken marinated and cooked over charcoal for a smoky, tender finish, served with fresh salsas, smoky onions, duck fat-fried black beans, warm tortillas, and lime for a build-your-own taco experience
- One Taco – AED 35
- Half Chicken – AED 70
- Whole Chicken – AED 120
The Lila x CarniStore collaboration is available on Saturday only, running from 12 PM to 7 PM.
On Sunday, 22 March, CarniStore continues the celebrations with a laid-back pop-up serving elevated comfort classics, designed for easy, feel-good dining. Guests can enjoy:
- Pulled Brisket Burger – AED 65, featuring slow-cooked brisket with keto slaw, Carni Q sauce, pickles, and fried onions, served with fries
- Classic Hotdog – AED 35, finished with relish, mustard, and ketchup
The CarniStore pop-up runs across both Saturday and Sunday.
Set within one of Dubai’s most dynamic cultural districts, the activation reflects the spirit of Eid — a time to show up, connect, and celebrate life together — brought to life through food, community, and shared experiences.
