Marco Pierre White's Wheeler's opens in Dubai

Celebrity chef Marco Pierre White's Wheeler's restaurant has opened in Dubai International Financial Centre (DIFC), Caterer Middle East can reveal.

RMAL Hospitality director of restaurant operations Simon Penhaligan confirmed the recent opening of the high-end seafood-focused outlet in the emirate during a recent roundtable event.

The original Wheeler's brand, a collaboration between Marco Pierre White and Sir Rocco Forte, was established in London in 1856, again with a strong focus on seafood.

A total of seven Wheeler's branches now exist across the UK.
