Chic Nonna and L’Amo Bistro Del Mare are opening as two new Dubai restaurants for those who miss Italian food. Brought to the region by Italian hospitality company Mine & Yours Group, the fine-dining restaurants will join the UAE’s diverse culinary scene.

“There are a lot of Italian restaurants out there, but they’re very generic, they have no real link to Italy. We do see a lot of restaurants launching in Dubai – which is such an international city – but closing down,” says Piero Giglio, managing partner and director of Mine & Yours Group. “It’s all about bringing the right concept at the right time.”
