The Peruvian chef will be the keynote speaker at the Caterer Middle East: Food & Business Conference held at Grosvenor House Dubai on March 7, where he will be interviewed about his use of indigenous Peruvian ingredients and modern techniques.
Caterer Middle East revealed last month that Martínez is set to open his first Dubai restaurant in March 2017, Lima Dubai, therefore Martínez is also set to discuss why he has chosen Dubai as the next location to grow the Lima brand. The Dubai venue is the first Lima outside of London, where the restaurant was awarded a Michelin star shortly after opening, the first for a Peruvian restaurant. The Michelin star has been retained for five consecutive years.
Chef’s Table: Season 3 will premiere worldwide on Netflix on 17th February.
