Dubai’s culinary scene has welcomed a new addition ‘Eugene Eugene’ a greenhouse-inspired French brasserie that promises to offer an exquisite dining experience. Nestled on the rooftop of the Mall of the Emirates, this stunning oasis is located on the second floor of the Kempinski Hotel.
The latest venture from Rikas Group, renowned for their successful establishments such as Tagomago, La Cantine, and Mimi Kakushi, Eugene Eugene is a testament to their expertise in the hospitality industry. The brasserie offers a chic yet relaxed setting, perfect for both day and night dining experiences. During the day, it serves as an elegant space for lunch and coffee catch-ups, while at night, it transforms into a captivating, candle-lit dining room ideal for late-night cocktails.
Drawing inspiration from greenhouses and market halls, the restaurant’s interior is adorned with hundreds of plants, creating a lush, verdant atmosphere. The green marble bar, inviting conservatory, outdoor terrace, comfortable rattan sofas, and ample seating options add to the overall charm of the place.
The menu at Eugene Eugene is simple yet satisfying, featuring traditional dishes with a modern twist. From fresh seafood to delicious meats, sharing-style starters, and Mediterranean pasta, there’s something for every palate. Head Chef Yanis Sgad’s culinary highlights include the Taleggio cheese pizzetta, the roasted whole baby chicken with a non-negotiable side of pomme puree, and for dessert, the red fruit pavlova.
Eugene Eugene is the first of two concepts from the Rikas Group opening at Kempinski Mall of the Emirates. In the coming month, the hotel will also welcome a new Cantonese restaurant, Xu, which promises to be an Instagrammable spot with its bright neon interiors.
Whether it’s for the tasty food or the beautiful setting, Eugene Eugene is a table you’ll want to book pronto. The brasserie operates daily from 12pm to 12am. For those seeking a unique dining experience in Dubai, Eugene Eugene offers a blend of French culinary delights in a serene, greenhouse-inspired setting.
