For the longest time, Middle Eastern food has been considered as comfort food—something that you order in. It became synonymous with sheesha’s and cocktails to the global audience. We really wanted to break this perception that people have about the limitations of Middle Eastern cuisine and showcase its potential to the world. Dubai, being such a metropolitan city, with people from around the world, was a perfect start to this journey created by an Italian Chef Consultant Cristian Marino.
