Pots, Pans & Boards | Tom Aikens new restaurant concept in Dubai
Foodies in Dubai will be excited to hear that Michelin-starred chef Tom Aikens is opening his first eagerly awaited restaurant concept Pots, Pans and Boards. The restaurant is set to open its doors early September and will be located at The Beach, opposite JBR.
Tom Aikens is one of the UK’s most acclaimed and inspirational chefs, owing to his innovative style and creative interpretation of modern French cuisine.
The Pots, Pans and Boards menu will consist of a mixture of casual English, Mediterranean and French dishes, with a home-style offering of sharing starters, main courses and desserts. All dishes will be cooked and presented on a pot, a pan or a board – hence the inspiration for the name.
Tom has stated: “We absolutely cannot wait to bring Pots, Pans and Boards to the people of Dubai and are keen to offer up something completely different to what currently exists on the Dubai food scene.
The concept behind Pots, Pans and Boards stems from my own nostalgia of family and home-cooking in a bustling and comforting environment. Sharing food with friends and family means so much to me; it brings people closer together and makes the whole aspect of dining and eating out a truly enjoyable experience.”
