Ossigeno, one of Dubai's best Italian restaurants, located at Le Royal Méridien Beach Resort and Spa Dubai, welcomes visitors to indulge in its new and exciting menu. The new menu offers something for every discerning palette; from the standard Italian fare known and loved by all, to new and exotic Italian flavours for the adventurous soul.

"I am confident that visitors to Ossigeno will thoroughly enjoy the new selection of Italian delights on offer," said Chef Patrick Lannes, Chef Director at Le Royal Meridien Beach Resort + Spa Dubai and Grosvenor House Dubai, Maitre Cuisinier De France.

Chef Marco Lucentini added: "Growing up in Italy taught me at a young age that food is a pleasure. Indeed we have a saying in Italian: ‘Esse nufesso qui dice male di macaroni, which means he who speaks badly of Macaroni, is a fool! I look forward to serving visitors of the restaurant with many delectable creations, and challenging their preconceptions of standard Italian fare."

Visit Ossigeno and discover an array of gastronomic delights from the light and refreshing tomato carpaccio to melon and meat soup with foie gras and aged balsamic vinegar.

For the main course, flirt with the exotic and celebrate the finest flavours with Ossigeno's delectable agnolotti filled with sea bass and a creamy broccoli sauce. Alternatively why not opt for the tagliatelle al caffe with freshly-caught prawns topped with a refreshing lemon zest sauce, or the juicy lamb rack with polenta and hazelnut sauce.

And for those with a sweet-tooth: savour the seductive flavours of cannoli al cioccolato farcies featuring chocolate and rocket salad with a refreshing side of strawberry and basil sorbet or head towards a fruity finale with an apricot sorbet stuffed with thyme-flavored ice cream fiordilatte topped with a mouthwatering raspberry syrup.

Ossigeno is located on the ground floor of Le Royal Méridien Beach Resort and Spa.

 


 

Michelin-starred celebrity chef Gary Rhodes unveils Rhodes Twenty10 at Le Royal Méridien Beach Resort + Spa Dubai

Following on from the success of Rhodes Mezzanine at Grosvenor House Dubai, Michelin-starred celebrity chef Gary Rhodes OBE has unveiled his second venture in the UAE, Rhodes Twenty10, at sister hotel Le Royal Méridien Beach Resort + Spa.

Rhodes Twenty10, is a new generation of culinary grill with a twist, where the emphasis is on sharing, bringing family and friends together in sleek and contemporary surroundings.

Commenting on the opening of Rhodes Twenty10, Gary Rhodes OBE said: “The concept is a culinary grill with a difference. The idea is to give guests the chance to tailor-make their meal depending on their tastes and create a sociable dining experience, by introducing sharing platters and offering a variety of flavours all on one plate.”

Pam Wilby, complex general manager at Le Royal Méridien Beach Resort + Spa and Grosvenor House Dubai added: “Since 2007, Rhodes Mezzanine has gone from strength to strength, proving hugely popular amongst our international guests and local residents alike. We are positive Rhodes Twenty10 will replicate its success, whilst at the same time providing a unique dining experience.”

Rhodes Twenty10 offers both classic and more exotic ‘Open European’ dishes with a variety of grills, from lobster to steak. All dressings, sauces and butters are complimentary, as Gary believes they should naturally go together. Signature dishes include the delicious Rhodes Twenty10 burger made with fillet steak and topped with fois gras, which melts in the mouth, followed by Sticky toffee pudding with toffee sauce and toffee ice cream.

The restaurant’s interior is equally well-considered. It is sleek and chic with a monochrome colour scheme and hints of lilac. The inviting dining area has plush seating, where guests can sit back comfortably and enjoy good food. The most striking feature is without doubt the floor to ceiling wine cellar which stretches across two floors, offering the finest selection of wines available. Add to this sparkling chandeliers, and twinkling candles reflecting in the chrome and mirrors, and you find yourself in a very intimate, relaxing atmosphere.

Rhodes Twenty10 is open from 7pm until midnight Tuesday to Sunday. For restaurant reservations please call: 04 316 5550
