Atherton.. new restaurant at InterContinental Dubai Marina

UK chef to launch Dubai's Marina Social in September

DUBAI, July 29, 2015

Advance bookings will soon open for the Marina Social and The Social Room, Michelin starred chef Jason Atherton’s debut restaurant in the region, which is set to open on September 4.

Located in the newly opened InterContinental Dubai Marina, the acclaimed chef will bring deformalized fine dining to Dubai with its adjoining bar, The Social Room.

The Marina is a landmark location for Atherton’s growing portfolio of highly acclaimed ‘Social’ restaurants featured from London, to Hong Kong, New York and now the first in the Middle East.

“Simply put, I love Dubai,” said Atherton. “I first worked in Dubai more than 10 years ago and the city holds a lot of special memories for me, especially because it’s where I met my wife Irha - so it was always an ambition to return and open up my own restaurant.

With an exquisite sharing menu concept Marina Social will offer British-Mediterranean styled dishes that use the finest ingredients with the creative flare and culinary expertise renowned across Atherton’s restaurants. Leading the team is chef patron Tristin Farmer and general manager David Vindis, both previously part of the ‘Social’ family having worked at Atherton’s restaurants in London.  

“Marina Social and The Social Room are as vibrant and cosmopolitan as the Dubai Marina,” said Michael Martin, general manager at InterContinental Dubai Marina. “At InterContinental Dubai Marina we are very proud and excited to house such an exquisite dining concept, promising an atmosphere that will blend perfectly with the hotel’s contemporary vibe and Marina neighbourhood,” he said.

Marina Social will open daily for dinner with indoor and al fresco terrace seating and The Social Room will open daily for evening drinks.

Advance bookings for dinner at Marina Social can be made from August 2 by calling +971 (0) 4446 6664. The first tables are available from 6 pm to 11.30 pm from September 4 onwards. – TradeArabia News Service
