Ruya restaurant has brought a slice of Anatolian cuisine to the UAE with its first eatery at the Grosvenor House Hotel in Dubai Marina. The menu has been designed by executive chef Colin Clague and features Anatolian classics with a contemporary twist. Spread over 800 square metres of the hotel, the restaurant can seat 240 diners in its Mediterranean-themed indoors and outdoor terrace that overlooks the Dubai Marina.
Located in the swanky new Palazzo Versace, Enigma is more than just a restaurant – it’s a new dining concept that overhauls its menu – chef included – every three months. And these are no ordinary chefs, either – mostly they hail from Michelin-starred eateries to include Spain’s Quique Dacosta and Sweden’s Björn Frantzén, who have been given the challenging task of creating a bespoke food narrative. Guests must pre-book and can select seating, but bring your curiosity and your appetite as the food remains a mystery until it’s on your table.
