Miss Lily’s, a Caribbean eatery with two outlets in New York City, will open in the Sheraton Grand Hotel in Dubai this Eid.
The casual restaurant is a beach shack-meets-Jamaican diner and will give foodies an authentic taste of island cuisine in a lively atmosphere, complete with reggae music. Miss Lily’s executive chef, New York native Adam Schop, has curated a menu packed with Jamaican flavours.
The menu includes bites such as the signature jerk chicken, jerk corn grilled with toasted coconut and jerk mayo, pimento short ribs and hot pepper shrimp. Dishes exclusive to the Dubai outlet include king crab with scotch bonnet sauce, jerk barbecue short rib steamed buns and Jamaican pepper rib-eye steak.
The restaurant will be split into three areas: a dining room that seats just 40 people, a bar and a lounge area, which together will seat an additional 40 people. There will also be a private chef’s table just off the kitchen that can seat up to 16 people. Miss Lily’s will also be the only restaurant in the region where guests can sip on Ting, Jamaica’s beloved grapefruit soda.
Miss Lily's, set to open on the first day of Eid, will be open daily from 6pm to 2am. www.misslilysnyc.com
