Available at all restaurants for lunch and dinner, the menu was first introduced in 2010 coinciding with World Diabetes Day. Compiled under the guidance of dieticians and doctors, the menu enables patrons to enjoy a fulfilling meal while maintaining a normal level of blood sugar in their bodies.

According to International Diabetes Federation (IDF), globally, an estimated 415 million adults were living with diabetes in 2015, compared to 108 million in 1980. This number is expected to increase to around 642 million by 2040, i.e. one in ten adults. This reflects an increase in associated risk factors such as being overweight or obese.
