As part of The National's Taste Test series, we dive into the exciting menu crafted by renowned chef Aadel Ouaoua, just in time for the restaurant's grand opening this Thursday.

A Culinary Journey Awaits

Located in the vibrant Valley 77 of Al Khawaneej, Late Eatery stands out with its modern design and inviting atmosphere. The restaurant boasts airy interiors adorned with olive green tones, natural light, and rustic elements like wood and stone, creating a perfect backdrop for a memorable dining experience.

Chef Aadel Ouaoua, celebrated for his Michelin-starred work at RSVP, brings a wealth of international culinary expertise to the table. With a focus on local flavors and ingredients, his menu is a delightful fusion of global cuisines, featuring everything from saffron to beetroot.

Unmissable Dishes to Savor

When you visit Late Eatery, don’t miss these four standout dishes recommended by Chef Ouaoua himself:

  1. Labneh with Beetroot and Hazelnuts - A refreshing summer dish that combines creamy labneh with baby beetroot, drizzled with olive oil and honey, and topped with roasted hazelnuts. This dish is a perfect balance of flavors, with the labneh cooling the earthy beetroot for a delightful start to your meal.
  2. Charred Red Pepper with Feta - Experience the smoky goodness of capsicum cooked in a charcoal oven, enhanced with Spanish olive oil, crumbled feta, and roasted pistachios. The freshness and smokiness create a harmonious blend, making it a must-try for pepper lovers!
  3. Robata Steak with Teriyaki Sauce - Indulge in tenderloin seasoned simply with salt and pepper, cooked over high heat for a smoky flavor. The sweet teriyaki sauce adds a rich umami touch, complemented by a secret green oil sauce that will leave you craving more.
  4. Truffle Flatbread - For pizza enthusiasts, this ultra-thin flatbread topped with creamy Parmesan, truffle paste, and shavings is a game changer. Each bite bursts with flavor, making it impossible to resist even after sampling the other dishes.
