Japanese restaurant Ramusake to open in Dubai

DoubleTree by Hilton in Jumeirah Beach Residence will welcome London-based Japanese restaurant concept Ramusake in May. 

Owned and spearheaded by nightlife entrepreneur Piers Adams, Ramusake features a sake bar and lounge, and a theatrical ‘robata’ counter in the main dining area.

The venue draws design inspiration from 1920s Tokyo with a Blade Runner-esque futuristic twist, the brand said in a statement. 

The menu will include cult favourites from Ramusake London as well as new offerings and the bar's extensive menu list includes cocktails and 19 different sakes.

Speaking to Caterer Middle East last summer, Hilton Worldwide vice president food and beverage, Europe, Middle East and Africa Simon Lazarus said of the addition: "the very famous Ramusake is one of the top brands in London currently" and added that the Dubai launch is the band's "first foray internationally".
