6 Juan Amador, Michelin chef,
Partner in Amador Restaurant
Molecular superstar Juan Amador has been busy recently opening his newest restaurant, and first in the Middle East, the Amador Restaurant and Cellar at Park Rotana Abu Dhabi. The outlet sees the three-star Michelin chef serve up tapas delights and wonders, such as virtual sushi and mieral pigeon with purple curry.
In its first few months the restaurant has proved a destination for UAE foodies who want something new, and there are plans for the relationship between Amador and Rotana to extend further, with the concept rolled out to more outlets in the region.

The Spanish chef gained his first star at the age of 25, in 1993, but didn’t open his first independent culinary endeavour, Restaurant Amador, until 2004.
