Anantara Dubai The Palm Resort & Spa has welcomed new speciality chef Michael Muir to lead the kitchen operations at Bushman’s Restaurant & Bar.
He takes over the role from Natalie Bolt, who is now with Maxx Royal Kemer in Antalya, Turkey.
Muir began his career training with Neil Perry at the Rock Pool restaurant in Sydney, followed by several roles at various Brisbane-based outlets, and two years in London as executive chef at Zuma in London.
Prior to joining Anantara The Palm, Muir worked with the Borsa Group of restaurants in Istanbul as executive chef, overseeing the group’s three restaurants in Turkey.
Commenting on Muir’s appointment, Anantara Dubai The Palm Resort & Spa executive chef Maurice Fitzgerald said: “Michael joins the team at Bushman’s Restaurant & Bar as we embark on an exciting year. His experience, skills and ability to encourage success within a team will ensure he is instrumental in reviewing the restaurant’s menus and culinary concepts so that we can continue to deliver an authentic, Australian experience.”
