(MENAFN- Qatar Museums) Experience the Fusion of Middle Eastern Cuisine and Parisian Elegance

Jiwan, an acclaimed MENA restaurant located within Doha’s National Museum of Qatar, will take over Le Dalí at Le Meurice hotel in Paris from 29 July to 4 August with a unique menu highlighting the vibrant flavours and rich heritage of Doha.

As the world gathers in Paris, Jiwan invites guests to experience its Distinctively Doha cuisine, inspired by Middle Eastern flavours and regional culinary traditions. This collaboration embodies the spirit of multiculturalism central to Jiwan’s ethos, blending local traditions with a global perspective.

Le Meurice, known as the 'hotel of artists and thinkers,' provides the ideal setting for this cultural and culinary exchange. The Jiwan takeover promises a dining experience merging elegant Parisian aesthetic with Doha’s rich traditions. Diners will enjoy modern takes on Middle Eastern classics and exquisite desserts crafted by renowned pastry chef, Cedric Grolet and Executive Pastry Chef Lucas Fourdrinier.

“Diners can choose between set sharing or à la carte menus for lunch and dinner from 29 July to 3 August, or a special Jiwan brunch on 4 August and guests will be given authentic bespoke Middle Eastern spice blends as a small take-home souvenir,” says Morgan Perrigaud, Head Chef at Jiwan, adding, “I am thrilled to bring the flavours of the Middle East to Paris during such an exciting week for sport”.

The takeover adds to Qatar Museums’ (QM) presence in Paris during the week of 29 July. The 3-2-1 Qatar Olympic and Sports Museum will host an exhibition at Le Royal Monceau, celebrating 40 years of Qatar’s participation in the historical sporting event. "Olympism: More Than a Dream" will run from 21 July to 4 September 2024 in collaboration with the Qatar Olympic Committee, the Coubertin Family Association, and Globe'Art. Additionally, "Qatar Sport Panorama," a visual presentation of Qatar's Olympic history, will be displayed on the wall of the Qatar Embassy in Paris on Champs-Élysées boulevard from 15 July to 8 September 2024. Meanwhile, Mathaf: Arab Museum of Modern Art will be showcasing 19 works at an exhibition at Musée d’Art Moderne de Paris. Curated tours of these exhibitions will be available, followed by a celebratory lunch by Jiwan at Le Dalí.
