Most anticipated fall restaurant openings in Asia and the Middle East
Gordon Ramsay and Tom Aikens are particularly busy this fall, with each Michelin-starred chef planning dual openings in Dubai and Hong Kong. Check out some of the most highly anticipated restaurant openings across Asia and the Middle East.
Dubai
Bread Street Kitchen, by Gordon Ramsay
Celebrity chef Gordon Ramsay announced in June plans to take up residence at the luxury Atlantis, The Palm Hotel in Dubai. Ramsay brings his popular London restaurant Bread Street Kitchen to the Middle East, an international menu featuring dishes like roasted cod with potatoes, artichoke, salted capers and red wine, lemon sauce; tamarind spiced chicken wings; duck breast with potatoes and cabbage puree.
Pots, Pans and Boards by Tom Aikens
After shuttering his eponymously named London restaurant which launched Aikens to fame, the chef has set his sights abroad, with concurrent projects in Dubai and Hong Kong. In Dubai, Pots, Pans and Boards, named after Aikens’s memories of clanging pots in the family kitchen, will be a casual eatery serving English, Mediterranean and French dishes.
Singapore
Spago, by Wolfgang Puck
Celebrity chef Wolfgang Puck expands his empire from the US, Canada and London to open an outpost of Spago at the luxury Marina Bay Sands resort in Singapore. The opening of Spago, fine dining American cuisine, marks Puck’s second restaurant at the leisure and entertainment complex after his steakhouse opening CUT.
Hong Kong
The Fat Pig by Tom Aikens
As its name suggests, Aikens’s second Hong Kong restaurant, after The Pawn, will feature all things porcine, on the menu. The new restaurant will open at the Times Square space at Causeway Bay.
London House, by Gordon Ramsay
With views over the Victoria Harbour, Ramsay’s London House will offer two levels of dining and serve distinctly British fare with an extensive beer and wine menu.
