Therefore being able to host such a prestigious event within our property celebrating the crème de la crème of the MENA food and beverage industry is an absolute honor.”

The hotel is well known for its signature restaurants VaKaVa, SOLE and Li Beirut and is a fitting location for one of the most prestigious events in the culinary calendar.

The global edition of the talked-about awards, which last year gave top spot to Noma in Copenhagen, generates passionate discussion in the restaurant community around the world and Banks is proud to put Hilton at the centre of that conversation for the MENA region in 2022.
“Having the eyes of the restaurant world on Conrad Abu Dhabi Etihad Towers for the inaugural Middle East & North Africa’s 50 Best Restaurants awards is tremendously exciting and a huge honour,” she said. “I’m sure hosting the ceremony will be both energising and inspiring for the F&B team at the hotel and I know they can’t wait to show their skills to the attendees. We look forward to welcoming the region’s best chefs to the capital in February for what I anticipate will be a fiercely contested awards show.”
