Nozomi, an award-winning contemporary Japanese lifestyle restaurant from London and Riyadh, has opened its doors in the gardens of Marsa Malaz Kempinski, The Pearl – Doha in Qatar.

The concept is an innovative addition to Doha’s culinary scene, offering guests over a decade’s worth of experience in successfully fusing entertainment and fine dining.

Originally launched in London in 2005 by renowned restauranteur Marios George, Nozomi offers highly acclaimed contemporary Japanese cuisine paired with European subtleties. A new bespoke dining menu has been created exclusively for Nozomi Doha, which includes signature restaurant dishes such as its famous Black Cod, tender Kobe beef and world class lobster tempura.

Marios George, Brand Ambassador, said: “The launch of Nozomi Doha is a much awaited addition to the increasingly elevating lifestyle experiences available in Qatar. Nozomi offers guests everything they have come to expect of contemporary Japanese cuisine and much more, particularly with our focus on fusing entertainment into the overall dining experience. Our exclusive music collections have been curated from sounds from all over the world, mixed with both modern and regional tones – it is something not yet seen in the local hospitality scene. We are proud of Nozomi’s unique concept and we look forward welcoming guests to experience it first-hand.”

With a contemporary and chic design, the ambiance is relaxed and allows guests to enjoy the exquisite gastronomic delights in style. Nozomi Doha offers 228 seats downstairs in the restaurant, including the outdoor patio and 143 seats in the upstairs lounge; both floors have outdoor seating with stunning views over the palatial hotel and out to the azure waters of the Arabian Gulf.

Nozomi opened its first franchise in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, in September 2014 and has gone from strength to strength. The restaurant has become one of the most popular destinations in the city, attracting visitors from all across the country. – TradeArabia News Service
