There was muhammara, kibbeh nayeh made with minced Saroma Wagyu beef topside and burghul, lubia, a tart salad of roka, figs, dates, tomatoes and beetroot crisps, freshly baked pita with a @chateaumarsyas rosĂŠ. ⢠Chef Troy Payne did the hot mezze starters: coal roasted oysters with zhoug butter, lemon and arak, spiced prawn sambousek, Saroma wagyu shawarma and root vegetables kebab. ⢠Next chef was Bethany Kehdy with the main courses: butterflied prawn tajen, Silver Fern Farms lamb kebbeh flambĂŠed at the table and the candied beetroot and aubergine maqlouba served with another Lebanese wine #ChateauMarsyas Syrah-Grenache-Mourvèdre blend from Baalbeck. ⢠Finally, chef number four is non other than @m.orfali with two unique desserts - the ord baklava and a karaz sour cherry and dark chocolate âcherryâ which we enjoyed with @familiatorreswines Floralis Moscatel Oro. ⢠Four chefs collaborating on a Levantine feast complemented by Lebanese wines made for a delicious evening. ⢠#TravelswithaGourmet #TWAGDubai #Foodiva #foodies #foodstagram (at Al Nafoorah) https://www.instagram.com/p/Cba2KclhH2w/?utm_medium=tumblr

Escapist restaurant interiors could be "lasting design legacy of the pandemic" says Roar trends report
https://static.dezeen.com/uploads/2020/05/escapist-restaurant-interiors-sq-2-852x852.jpg
Coronavirus will lead to a rise in escapist restaurant interiors, while physical menus, cash payments and buffets will largely be abandoned, according to a trends report by Dubai-based studio Roar.
Roar, which is led by Pallavi Dean, worked with 170 industry professionals, as well as a focus group of nine experts, to predict ways that the Covid-19 pandemic will change the design of restaurants.
The report aimed to distinguish the short-term impacts from the long-term trends that will be seen in future dining experiences.
Restaurateurs âknow there will be fewer people dining outâ
Using original and escapist design to create âslightly surrealâ and special experiences in restaurants could be âthe lasting design legacy of the pandemic,â said one panelist.
âRestaurateurs are not really asking for new spacing â but they are pushing for more originality,â read the report.
âThey know there will be fewer people dining out, so they are asking us to challenge the briefs they have given us, and asking for more originality.â
Decadent and escapist interiors like The Ivy Asia in London could become the biggest post-Covid trend
Another panellist predicted that a new form of architectural modernism would arise. The mid-century design style is interpreted by some historians as a response to early 20th century health crises like cholera, typhoid and flu.
It included âthe embrace of simple lines, strict geometries and modern materials, and the rejection of ornamentation such as intricately carved wooden furniture that collected dangerous microbes.â
It is possible that the current pandemic could give birth to a similar transformation in building design, predicts the report.
More open kitchens predicted post pandemic
The forecast suggests that we will see more open kitchens after the pandemic, as they promote âtransparencyâ. Surfaces built or clad in anti-microbial materials will also âbe a givenâ.
Open kitchens like the one featured in Londonâs Silo restaurant by studio Nina+Co are also forecast to become more popular
âAnti-microbial surfaces are not new to the foodservice industry â but some designers observed that they are sometimes value-engineered out of the final build specification for restaurants,â read the report.
âPanelists broadly agreed that this will no longer be the case.â
The three trends that Roar headlined as the most significant in the future of dining were layout and spacing, contactless dining and food concepts.
Restaurant spacing restrictions will be âsevere but short-livedâ
Pre-Covid it was recommended that restaurants give each seated dinner of 1.4 square metres of space. Amid the pandemic however, the World Health Organisation (WHO) has recommended this be increased to 2.5 square metres per diner for any outlets that remain open.
Roar founder Dean, who is a judge at this yearâs Dezeen Awards, thinks layout and spacing restrictions will be âsevere but short-livedâ.
According to the report, more than a quarter think spacing in restaurants will return to normal later this year, however most predict that social distancing measures wonât be left behind until early 2021.
Physical menus and cash payments to become rare
While many might think the second forecast of contactless dining is âa givenâ, in reality it is more nuanced, argues the report, as nearly half of survey respondents voted that it is âa passing fadâ.
Instead of contactless, Roar uses the term âcontact-lightâ, which would see physical menus and cash payments become rare âif not extinctâ, alongside communal condiments like salt and pepper.
Restrooms is where the most change will be seen. Referred to as âa vital battleground in the war against infectionâ, the report imagines that most bathroom doors will be removed except from private cubicles, and those that remain will be open and closed by foot or via wireless sensors.
âCustomers will rarely, if ever, touch a tapâ
âJapanese-style robot WCs (replacing a new piece of paper over the seat after each visit) will go from novelties to must-have, although in the interim a packet of Dettol wipes may have to suffice,â reads the report.
âCustomers will rarely, if ever, touch a tap, soap dispenser or hand dryer again. All this technology already exists, itâs simply a case of using it.â
In terms of food concepts, the report predicts that buffet and sharing-style forms of eating âcannot survive in their present form.â
Many of these trends, from increased automation and the death of buffets to an increasing demand for escapism concepts, had already begun pre-pandemic, argues the report.
The pandemic will simply accelerate these design trends that were already in play.
Roarâs report was created with the help of nine industry professionals, including founder of Gates Hospitality, Naim Maadad, partner at Flip International, Jamal Wick, founder of The Free Spirit Project, Briar Jacques and founder of Bishop Design, Paul Bishop.
Roar founder Dean â who featured in Dezeenâs VDF launch movie â created the report with the help of eight other industry professionals, including founder of Gates Hospitality, Naim Maadad, partner at Flip International, Jamal Wick and founder of The Free Spirit Project, Briar Jacques.
Other participants include Paul Bishop from Bishop Design, Isabel Pintado from Wilson Associates, Georgy John from Gastronomica, David McAdam from the Middle East Council of Shopping Centers and Samantha Wood from FooDiva.
London studio Bompas & Parr also predicted a series of design and lifestyle trends that will emerge both during and after the Covid-19 pandemic, from virtual spas to an increase in DIY creativity at home.
Once the main impact of the virus is over, the studio predicts a rise in haptic museums, to get people used to touch again, and a continued obsession with hygiene and hand-washing.

Delectable dinner reviewed for you by @foodiva ăťăťăť Butter âteaâ anyone? đ. A slightly spiced beef tenderloin on a bed of mashed potatoes made heavenly with lashings of garlic and herb infused French butter sauce. I asked for more bread to mop it all up đ. Part of a #ButterOfEurope demo and dinner using Beurre dâIsigny @inkeddubai hosted by the always-entertaining @francoisrobincheesemonger - youâll find him on the âButter Kitchenâ stall @tasteofdubai this weekend. Doesnât real butter always make everything taste better? đ. Donât be fooled into buying unhealthy butter substitutes, or those mixed with vegetable fats. Butter coma for me this week đđ #foodiva â view on Instagram http://ift.tt/2tqLtFK

Simple nights call for simple home cooked meals. I thought I was so over chicken breast after I started eating leg quarters and I must say my Lodge Cast Iron renewed my love for baked/roast chicken. đĽđ
