Nova Maldives will welcome Emirati celebrity chef Sumaya Obaid to its property for a highly anticipated appearance this month, from July 27 to 31.
Known for its fusion of Arabic and international flavors, Obaid will bring the taste of Emirati cuisine to the property's guests through exclusive menus and the opportunity for exclusive beachside dining. The exclusive event also offers guests a unique opportunity to participate in immersive cooking classes led by Chef Sumaya. From morning cooking sessions that transition to delicious lunches to live cooking demonstrations that showcase your culinary finesse, attendees are promised a captivating culinary expedition.
Emirati cuisine, deeply rooted in Bedouin traditions, can serve as a delicious gateway to the region's rich tapestry of history and culinary diversity, blending aromatic spices from India and aromatic herbs from Persia into a harmonious feast for the senses.
“Bringing the essence of Emirati cuisine to the serene shores of Nova and intertwining it with the island's stunning beauty is an exciting adventure. It's about more than just food; it’s about storytelling, tradition, sharing a part of my heritage and presenting it to a wider audience,” says Chef Obaid.
