One of the world’s most iconic Chinese restaurants has officially landed in Dubai. MR CHOW opened its doors today in the Gate District at DIFC, marking the brand’s first UAE location and a major new addition to the city’s fine dining scene.
Originally launched in Knightsbridge, London in 1968, MR CHOW was founded by Michael Chow as a tribute to traditional Beijing cuisine, brought to life through modern presentation and theatrical service. The brand has since grown a global following and a celebrity clientele that includes Bella Hadid, Jay-Z, Snoop Dogg, and Martha Stewart.
