New Arabian Cuisine

The book New Arabian Cuisine was sure to be a ground-breaking project: launched at the end of 2006, the book represents an attempt to offer a completely new 'bridge' across cultures - a culinary one.

The book hopes to inspire a whole generation of chefs to come up with innovative new ways of preparing and presenting traditional Arabian dishes, and of combining local flavors and textures in new ways, using a subtle European touch. It aims at linking "two worlds of enjoyment that have, as yet, remained almost entirely untouched by each other," but because of the unique, multi-cultural environment of Dubai have come to mingle and inspire each other in creating the now-famous fusion cuisine.
