Another Izu Ani masterpiece is in the works

La Maison Ani will soon open its doors in Fashion Avenue at The Dubai Mall.

Individually, chef Izu Ani and restaurateur Evgeny Kuzin have achieved great success in the local F&B scene, but collectively? Well, you could say they have the Midas touch. The duo has collaborated on the likes of Gaia, Scalini, and Izu Burger, most recently partnering up with Accor to launch food-tech platform Kitch-In – and elevating the landscape of food delivery services in the process. Now, they’re back, this time opening a restaurant rather aptly named La Maison Ani.

Opening in May and located in Fashion Avenue at The Dubai Mall, the new homegrown eatery will serve relaxed French-Mediterranean cuisine for breakfast, lunch and dinner in an effortlessly elegant setting seeping with romance. We’re told that La Maison Ani will be home to an exquisite boulangerie and patisserie, both inspired by the daily rituals of French culture. Influenced by chef Ani’s love of travel and the cultures that have shaped his creativity, La Maison Ani encompasses the core elements of French food, with touches of British and African cuisine to boot.

Welcomed throughout the day and evening, diners can enjoy breakfast with artisan breads, pastries and other baked treats alongside organic roast coffee, followed by an invigorating Mediterranean lunch in the botanical conservatory and an atmospheric brasserie throughout the evening. With beautiful views of The Dubai Fountain from La Maison Ani Garden, the concept has been curated to provide a tasteful experience for residents and tourists alike.
