HEALTHY & CO DINE IN RESTAURANTS

As the leader of this initiative, I established the first Healthy & Co. Dine-In Restaurant, located in DIFC, Dubai. I then expanded the concept to other prominent locations, including PwC, Dubai Science Park, and World Trade Center.

Additionally, I took the brand to Saudi Arabia, where I opened the first Healthy & Co. branch in Al Safa. Through my leadership and vision, Healthy & Co. has become a recognized name in the regional dining landscape, offering healthy and innovative culinary experiences.

BLACK TAP CRAFT BURGERS & BEERS

I was part of the pre-opening team that launched the first Black Tap Burgers and Craft Beers location in the Al Naseem Jumeirah Hotel. Black Tap originated in the USA and I was instrumental in expanding the brand to key locations in Dubai, including JBR and Abu Dhabi.


I was tasked with running a pop-up truck location and managing various events for the brand. During this time, I had the privilege of working closely with Michelin-starred chef Joey Isidori, further enhancing my culinary expertise and understanding of high-quality, innovative food concepts.

Inspired by the old-school NYC luncheonettes we grew up in, Black Tap is a fresh, fun take on the classic burger joint, upscale but never fussed up. Come on in for a warm welcome, a cold craft beer, an award-winning burger, and save room for one of our world-famous CrazyShakes®!
