Alessio Ruffoni, Al Grissino Restaurant & Lounge Dubai Manager commented: ‘Dubai has become an international hub for many things – Gastronomy being one of them. Emerging as a city that has a stronger will to excel at everything it does, it makes for the perfect location to open Al Grissino. We managed to place our restaurant at a prime location within the city at the Emirates Financial Towers in DIFC, and we are looking forward to offering the best to our customers’.
The original venue started out as a humble ‘Trattoria’ (Italian Eating Establishment) in Milano in 1952, and has since become a very popular and exquisite dining location in Italy. It established itself at a time when Italy was going through a time of rapid modernization and rapid economic growth, allowing Al Grissino to ride a wave of Industrial growth.
Since then onwards, Al Grissino has a reputation for its fine cuisine amongst renowned artists, public and social figures as well as politicians. The restaurant prides itself in its careful selection of beverages and ingredients. The main star of the menu is fish, originating solely from cold waters, with particular attention to starters, which are the real soul of the restaurant with over 20 different varieties.
Al Grissino Restaurant & Lounge Dubai offers its patrons over 100 wines, primarily from Italy, forming a superb list to choose from. The restaurant’s own olive oil and Flour are directly transported from Italy to preserve the authentic Al Grissino Taste.
