Highlights

Exclusive fine dining with only 22 seats
13 or 19 courses to choose from
Led by Chef Nimish Bhatia
Journey through India's culinary heritage
Held at Raffles Hotel, Wafi City

ISHQ is an intimate fine dining experience led by Chef Nimish Bhatia, built around a love story told through food. Only 22 seats are available, so the evening feels closer to a private chef's table than a standard restaurant service.

The menu is a sensory journey through India's culinary heritage, offered as either 13 or 19 courses. Personal memories, regional traditions and contemporary gastronomy sit side by side, with each course adding a new chapter to the theme of love.

The setting is Raffles Hotel, part of the Wafi City complex in Dubai. Wafi is an established district near Dubai Healthcare City and the Creek side of the city, known for its Egyptian-inspired architecture, its shopping and its hotels. It is a convenient address for guests coming from Downtown Dubai, Bur Dubai or Deira.

A multi-course tasting dinner is a slow, unhurried format, so it suits couples, special occasions and anyone who likes to follow a chef's story from the first plate to the last. With such a small number of guests, the evening is quiet and personal rather than loud or busy. Choose the 13-course or 19-course version depending on how long and how extensive an evening you would like.
