As the cooler months roll into Dubai, the city is primed for exciting new openings, and two new restaurants are about to make a splash. Rikas Hospitality Group, known for its luxurious dining experiences, is launching La Cantine Beach and Gohan at Delano Dubai, promising a perfect mix of relaxation, gourmet cuisine, and stunning views. These venues, located on Bluewaters Island, are set to redefine beachfront dining in the region, making them the ultimate destination for foodies and sunseekers

La Cantine Beach — Opening October 22, 2024

La Cantine Beach brings the beloved charm of La Cantine Du Faubourg from Jumeirah Emirates Towers to the shoreline. This isn’t just a restaurant; it’s a lively, multi-experience destination. You’ll find much more than just a beachfront view: there’s a pickleball and volleyball court, gym facilities, and a play area for kids, ensuring both active fun and relaxation. As Dubai’s fitness season kicks off with the Dubai Fitness Challenge, La Cantine Beach offers the perfect setting to combine exercise with indulgence.

When it’s time to refuel, enjoy a Mediterranean menu bursting with fresh, vibrant dishes. From light, sun-kissed fare to delicious gelato served from a retro-chic 1969 Fiat Giardiniera in the family pool area, La Cantine Beach guarantees that every visit feels like a mini-vacation. And with a live DJ spinning tunes, the party atmosphere is always alive and well.

Gohan — A Taste of Japan by the Water

Gohan, which will open shortly after La Cantine Beach, is a haven for lovers of Japanese cuisine. Offering both indoor and outdoor seating, this sleek venue provides panoramic views of the water, creating a serene atmosphere for your dining experience. Translating to “meal of any kind,” Gohan lives up to its name with a diverse menu focused on authentic Japanese flavors.

Indulge in the rich Beef Sando, savor the Crispy Chilean Sea Bass, or try a variety of robata-grilled dishes and expertly crafted sushi. To top it off, desserts like the zesty Marinated Citrus or the decadent Matcha Sponge Cake will ensure your meal ends on a high note.

Whether you’re in the mood for a laid-back Mediterranean meal at La Cantine Beach or a sophisticated Japanese feast at Gohan, these two new venues provide a complete beachfront experience. With Delano Dubai’s prime location on Bluewaters Island, guests are treated to panoramic sea views, making it an ideal spot to unwind, dine, and enjoy the lively Dubai social scene.
