New Arabic Restaurant Opens at Newly Opened Courtyard Hotel in Dubai

September 29, 2022

Al Khoory Hotels has announced the official opening of their second Al Baha Levantine Restaurant, which will be located on the ground floor of the recently opened Al Khoory Courtyard Hotel, located on Al Waha Street, off Sheikh Zayed Road.

Inspired by the warm and rich culture of the levant the vibrant Al Baha Restaurant will provide guests with an authentic Levantine experience and feature everything from hot and cold mezze to various grills, manakeesh, and a delectable array of homemade desserts.

The menu has been developed and crafted by Chef Jamal, who has over 15 years of experience working in kitchens throughout the region. The Syrian national takes inspiration from his childhood growing up in Damascus, where he first found his love for different flavours and tastes thanks to the variety of traditional cuisine his mother and grandmother passed down from previous generations.

Jeff Isaacs, Hotel Manager, Al Khoory Courtyard Hotel, said: “Following the success of our first Al Baha restaurant at Al Khoory Sky Gardens, we’re excited about expanding to a new location in the Courtyard Hotel by offering diners the same tasty menu, mouth-watering flavours and high standards Al Baha has become renowned for.

“We have created a family-friendly atmosphere within the restaurant, the inspiration of which was taken from the warm and welcoming Arabic traditions. Diners will have every opportunity to sit back and relax with family and friends while enjoying some outstanding food.”

The restaurant, which was officially opened last week by Al Khoory Group Chairman Mr. Mohammed Tayyeb Khoory during a ribbon-cutting ceremony, with guests welcomed by a traditional Syrian band in true Levantine style, will see Chef Jamal, Chef Khalil, Executive Chef at Al Khoory Courtyard Hotel, and the team deliver several delicious dishes, including fattoush, fried kibbeh, Armenian flatbreads, grilled tiger prawns, a range of Shawarma platters as well as a host of vegetarian and gluten-free options.

Mr. Hamed Mohamed Tayeb Mohamed Khoory – Director of Al Khoory Group, said: “As our flagship restaurant brand, Al Baha Levantine Restaurant has a growing reputation for quality and taste. We are now bringing the restaurant to a new area of Dubai and providing people with the opportunity to enjoy these same fantastic flavours. I’m convinced it will stand out in this highly competitive market.”

The Al Khoory Courtyard Hotel is conveniently located in a central location and provides easy access to Dubai International Airport. For families, the location is close to many attractions in Downtown, Dubai Marina, and Palm Jumeirah. At the same time, business travellers will enjoy the short distances to hubs such as Business Bay and the forthcoming District 2020.
