Downtown Rotana, the newly-opened five-star hotel located in the heart of Bahrain’s capital Manama, has launched its new signature restaurant ‘Teatro Downtown’.

 ‘Teatro Downtown’ is the hotel’s premiere restaurant venue offering an East-meets-West concept cuisine, embraced by warm design motifs and ultra-chic interiors.

Guests at the opening event were treated to an exclusive dinner of culinary delights from the restaurant’s award-winning menu.

This is the third ‘Teatro’ in the region to be opened by Rotana following the chain’s success in Dubai and Abu Dhabi, reflected in the winning of numerous awards over the years, the most recent being ‘Best International Restaurant 2015’ at the TimeOut Awards.

“The quality and diversity of Bahrain’s gastronomic offerings is one of the country’s main attractions. The kingdom has a lot to offer in terms of variety, creativity and innovation in international cuisines, which makes it a magnet for food lovers, and there has been a surge in investment from both the private and public sector in enhancing Bahrain’s position as a hub of culinary excellence in the region,” said Lilian Roger, general manager of Downtown Rotana.

“Teatro Downtown is the group’s prized gem. The restaurant has an established reputation in the region for its ambience, its gourmet fusion menu and of course the exceptional service. We are glad to be bringing this concept to the heart of Manama and throwing a bit of epicurean spotlight on this part of town which is increasingly becoming an attractive destination for quality dining.

“Our aim is to create a memorable gastronomic experience for our guests within a vibrant setting and we are confident the food will speak for itself,” he added

‘Teatro Downtown’ offers an array of authentic dishes inspired by five of the most well-known and popular cuisines – Indian, Chinese, Japanese, Italian and South East Asian.

Distinctive in both flavours and setting, ‘Teatro Downtown’ features an extensive menu selection to suit even the most demanding of palates, spread across three separate areas comprising a trendy lounge, open-faced kitchens with full view of the chefs in action, multiple food stations and a wide-ranging collection of beverages.

Priyantha Sanjeewa, Teatro Downtown’s specialty outlet chef said: “I am extremely happy to open Teatro in Bahrain which will become without doubt one of the city’s hotspots. We specialise in five different cuisines serving 130 dishes within a contemporary setting and our focus is on the quality of ingredients we serve and the lingering after-taste that we create.” – TradeArabia News Service
