Maison Dali aims to be modest, offbeat. But, this is Dubai and Tristin Farmer is the chef. It was always going to be a bit extra
What makes a chef who runs a three-Michelin-star restaurant so different from the rest? What is it about his cooking that so impresses Michelin inspectors?
Tristin Farmer is the talent behind Maison Dali in Dubai.
Sameer Sain and Tristin Farmer want Maison Dali to be a casual brasserie-style restaurant.The restaurant serves fine-dining versions of bar snacks such as uni truffle toast.Tristin takes simple dishes such as the Alaskan king crab and elevates them.The décor is inspired by Salvador Dali’s art and visual style, especially in the Supper Club.Squid pil pil is another of Tristin’s deceptively simple dishes.
