Dusit Residence Dubai Marina now opened - First guests will experience Eid celebrations with F&B offering containing the X factor
Dubai - United Arab Emirates - Bangkok-based Thai hospitality chain Dusit International opened the doors to its first branded residence outside of Thailand yesterday (Wednesday 1st October), with the soft opening of Dusit Residence Dubai Marina.
The first guests will experience Eid celebrations Thai-style with a food and beverage offering from celebrated Thai Chef 'X'.
Surasing Viratsakul, or Chef X, was born in Eastern part of Thailand and has spent most of his life in hotel kitchens creating his own recipes under the guidance of various master chefs.
He has worked in many five-star hotels both in Thailand and Europe where he developed a passion for his sincere yet distinctive style of cooking.
Ably assisted by Executive Sous Chef 'Vee', a graduate from Dusit Thani College in Bangkok, the duo have been instrumental in developing three exciting food & beverage outlets at the Dusit Residence, 32, Marina Street Kitchen, Dusit Gourmet and a Fusion Lounge.
The 3 outlets consist of an all-day dining experience with Western-Oriental influenced home cooked food, a modern Dusit gourmet and a premium tea experience in refined surroundings.
"However, as always it is the unrivalled and world renowned Thai hospitality that sets every Dusit-branded property apart from any other 5 star hospitality chain. You could say we have the 'X' factor in more ways than one," claimed General Manager Dalip Singh.
The 35-storey landmark tower contains a total of 146 premier serviced residences, overlooking the lifestyle enclave of Dubai Marina, a perfect location for leisure travelers.
Conveniently located in the heart of 'New' Dubai, the Dusit Residence is within easy reach of Mall of the Emirates, the Gold & Diamond Park, Emirates & Montgomery golf courses, The Walk opposite Jumeirah Beach, not to mention the vast array of lifestyle facilities in the Marina itself.
Dusit Residence Dubai Marina is now the third Dusit international property in Dubai, with boutique style hotel serviced apartments in Al Barsha, close to the Mall of the Emirates and the flagship property Dusit Thani Dubai, located on Sheikh Zayed Road, next to the financial centre of Dubai.
"Dusit Residence Dubai Marina is part of an exciting collection of Dusit properties opening throughout the Middle East. Dusit Thani Lakeview Cairo will open shortly with future hotels in Abu Dhabi and Palm Jumeirah Dubai," added Sam-Erik Ruttmann, Regional Vice President, Middle East.
