Jumeirah Group's Jumeirah Beach Hotel in Dubai is set to launch its first celebrity-named concept restaurant with Jamie’s Italian Restaurant.
Jumeirah Group’s CEO and president, Gerald Lawless, hinted at the opening of the forthcoming eatery at the Jumeirah Beach Hotel to Hotelier at the recent AHIC conference, and the company has since confirmed to Caterer that plans for the opening of British chef Jamie Oliver’s second restaurant in Dubai are underway.
The restaurant will be managed by Jamie’s Italian management team.
