Dubai, a beautiful beachfront restaurant is coming from Cannes to the city. Bâoli Dubai is scheduled to open in J1 Beach at La Mer in September. Sunset Hospitality Group has partnered with Downtown Ventures, and the venue will showcase French and Mediterranean flavours.
Bâoli was born in Cannes and later expanded to Miami. The brand has combined the vibes of Southeast Asia and the South of France and created a celebrity hangout. The Cannes venue is frequented by famous faces, especially during the Cannes Film Festival. A-list guests have included Eva Mendes, Jay-Z, Naomi Watts, and Sienna Miller.
Executive Chef Omar Basiony will be behind the menu, which will combine French and Mediterranean flavours with East Asian techniques. At the heart of the menu are sharing dishes, which showcase artisan craftsmanship and premium ingredients. Plus, there is a menu with light bites and signature cocktails.
Bâoli Dubai will transform from a serene shoreside spot during the day to a nightlife hotspot during the night. Guests can enjoy live entertainment from resident and guest DJs. The venue will boast multiple bars, including a VIP bar, VIP lounge, and terrace overlooking the waves. Plus, there will be a secret speakeasy playing a mix of afro house, house, indie, and retro music.
Sunset Hospitality Group’s Managing Director of Daylife, Guillaume Ferraz, explained: “Combining the spirit of East Asia and French refinement, Bâoli is a celebration of life, where like-minded individuals can unwind and socialize. With our legacy of extraordinary hospitality, we’re excited to add Bâoli to our portfolio.”
Managing Director of Downtown Ventures, Sanjeev Nanda, added: “Bâoli Dubai is a retreat-styled venue in the soon-to-open J1 Beach. The brand’s move into the Middle East follows its international success in Cannes and Miami, and we believe that Dubai is the perfect location to continue sharing a world-class hospitality experience.”
