Foodies of Doha, get ready for the Taste of Mondrian this June.

Between Wednesday June 1 and Saturday June 4, the five-star hotel will be hosting a culinary showcase across each of its outlets – and you won’t want to miss it.

First up, the eponymous chef Morimoto will be arriving in Doha ready to wow diners with a bespoke menu on June 1, followed by a special Japanese short drink ceremony.

Then on both Thursday June 2 and Friday June 3, you can expect an omakase experience, as well as a tuna cutting ceremony on Friday.

Chadi Farhat, brand chief operating officer of Mondrian at Ennismore, said,

“As a leading luxury hospitality brand, our core focus is on creating one of a kind guest experiences with every stay. Throughout our collection of exceptional lifestyle brands, creativity is weaved through our design and services – especially F&B. We pride ourselves with award-winning trailblazing chefs who keep reinventing our culinary offerings. Taste of Mondrian is a primary example of this and an opportunity for our guests to explore tantalizing culinary creations at Mondrian Doha.”

Mondrian Doha’s sister hotel SLS Dubai hit the headlines when it opened Fi’lia, the region’s first female-led restaurant, and on Friday June 3, chef Sara Aqel will be bringing the party with her from the UAE with a brunch takeover and a special dinner menu.

Over at CUT by Wolfgang Puck, chef Luke Omarzu will be serving up prime cuts at brunch, and taking you on a world tour via your stomach at dinner on Saturday June 4.

Take decadence to a new level at 12 Chairs caviar bar throughout the weekend, with daily mixology classes from chef Marcus Riot, while award-winning mixologist Ollie Hampton is heading to Hudson Tavern between Wednesday June 1 and Saturday June 4 to serve up bespoke mixed drinks.

The absolute highlight of the culinary weekend, however, has to be the gala dinner on Thursday June 2, with performances from Lebanese musician Guy Manoukian and singer George Nehme.

Mikel Ibrahim, general manager of Mondrian Doha, said,

“We are very excited to kick off our long-awaited Taste of Mondrian with a line-up of extravagant events across our lavish dining and nightlife outlets which will see the attendance of some of our world-renowned Chefs. Along with our 5th anniversary celebrations with the ‘New You’ campaign, we invite guests to immerse themselves in the true taste of Mondrian and enjoy an unforgettable sensory experience at the place to see-and-be-seen, whilst revelling in our enticing gastronomic menus and eccentric nightlife vibes.” 

The party doesn’t have to end there, either, with live entertainment and custom-made Cuban rolls at Smoke & Mirrors on June 2 and June 3, plus a club night with Innellea at Black Orchid on June 3.

No matter what you choose, you can expect fantastic food and a really fun night out. You can find out more information and book your Taste of Mondrian experience now by clicking here.
