Britain's most inventive culinary mind, Heston Blumenthal, has brought his talent for reinterpreting history to a new collaboration — this time teaming up with Nyetimber, the UK's most celebrated sparkling wine house, for an exclusive dining experience at Dinner by Heston Blumenthal inside Atlantis The Royal Dubai.
A Five-Course Journey Through British Culinary History
The Dinner by Heston Blumenthal and Nyetimber collaboration runs through Sunday, September 22, 2024, with a five-course set menu priced at AED 1,200 per person. Every guest receives a welcome glass of Nyetimber Classic Cuvée, and each subsequent course is paired with a Nyetimber sparkling wine chosen to complement the dish.
The menu draws on centuries of British gastronomy, presented through Blumenthal's multi-Michelin-starred lens:
- Meat Fruit (c.1500) — a chicken liver parfait in mandarin, one of the restaurant's most iconic dishes - Crab Tart (c.1710) — served with apple, sorrel, and coriander - Roast Scallops & Cucumber Ketchup (c.1826) - Cod in Nyetimber Butter (c.1940) — a nod to mid-century British cooking, with Nyetimber replacing traditional cider in the butter sauce - Beef Royal (c.1821) — a coronation dish originally prepared for King George IV - Olive Oil Perfume (bc.1350) — a fragrant dessert of mulled wine, honey, coriander seed, infused white chocolate ganache, and biscuit sponge
The five-course menu is available Tuesday to Sunday from 6pm to 11pm, until September 22.
One Night Only: Exclusive Private Dining with Nyetimber
On Thursday, September 19, Dinner by Heston Blumenthal hosts an even more intimate experience. Only 12 guests will be seated for a private dining tasting menu priced at AED 1,500 per person, paired with the finest English sparkling wines from Nyetimber's portfolio. Space is strictly limited for this event.
Two British Icons, One Table
Both Dinner by Heston Blumenthal and Nyetimber share a common ambition: elevating British tradition to world-class status. While Blumenthal has long championed the depth and drama of historical British cooking at Atlantis The Royal, Nyetimber has spent decades transforming the perception of English sparkling wine — proving that the English countryside can produce bottles that rival the best Champagnes.
This collaboration brings those parallel stories together at one table in Dubai.
