In a metropolis famed for skyscrapers and fine dining, Moonrise has become a culinary wonder. This omakase spot offers rooftop views and the best of global seafood to just fifteen guests at a time. Created by home-grown Dubai talent, chef Solemann Haddad designs dishes that blend Japanese technique with Middle Eastern produce and flavours. Each diner has front-row seats to witness the craftsmanship behind plates such as uniform hamachi slices doused in Syrian sumac sauce and preserved lemon. A khoory kabab, using A5 wagyu beef reared in Jordan with celeriac, beef jus and a shiso bouquet, epitomises Haddad's fusionist philosophy. Wherever possible, Moonrise sources locally from within the Middle East, bringing in specialist produce only when absolutely necessary. The setting stands out as much as the meal, with wall-to-wall windows overlooking Dubai's skyline.
