02. Michael Kitts, Director of Culinary, The Emirates Academy of Hospitality Management
Kitts joined The Emirates Academy of Hospitality Management (EAHM), part of Jumeirah Group, in 2001 as a lecturer and executive chef and worked his way through the ranks. One of the highlights for Kitts in 2015 has been seeing the success of Miraj, a restaurant concept designed and run by a team of 13 EAHM students as part of a four-day project. As EAHM's reputation continues to go from strength to strength, Kitts remains very involved in Dubai’s culinary scene. Next year he is looking forward to being part of the management team that will take Team UAE to Erfurt in Germany for the Culinary Olympics 2016.
