In a twist on typical Valentine’s Day promotions, a burger restaurant in Dubai is encouraging couples and singles alike to ditch sentimental baggage for a free meal.
On Saturday, Feb. 14, diners at Eleven Green’s Meyan Mall location will be able to swap an item gifted by an ex-partner — even something like a hoodie — in exchange for a complimentary cheeseburger. The catch? You have to bring the item to the restaurant in person.
Rather than letting those old tokens of affection gather dust, the burger bistro plans to recycle or donate every contribution, aligning with its broader commitment to reducing waste. Organizers framed the offer as a chance to make space — both physically and symbolically — while enjoying a casual bite.
The exchange deal runs from 12:30 p.m. until 1 a.m. only at the Meyan Mall eatery, giving customers a generous window to participate throughout the day and into the night.
Eleven Green’s Valentine’s initiative flips the usual holiday pitch on its head, turning what some see as leftovers of past relationships into an unexpected lunch or dinner.
Restaurant management has stated that this limited-time campaign reflects its zero-waste ethos, with no plans to extend the offer beyond the specified hours.
