And while the reasons for its lifeline undoubtedly have something to do with the sheer quality of its splendidly crafted and aged whiskies, its unyielding search for innovation also plays a role. Constantly digging for where to gear exploration next, the collaborative dinner is an extension of that search.<\/p>\n<p>Robust and neat the first whisky utility in the culinary journey is the 12-year-old bottle. With fruity notes and a light finish, it offers a juicy yet clean base. Alternatively, the 18-year-old whisky brings depth and complexity to the menu, fitting for a woody French roast that&#8217;s decadent yet forgiving.<\/p>\n<p>With underlying ingredients of honey, dates and apples, the two chefs have composed a menu that simultaneously pulls on the Glenfiddich offerings while rooting itself in the Dubai heritage.<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"YouTube video player\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/sXBmNtQX3i0?si=4JQ6x2I5qeogxKwy\" width=\"560\" height=\"315\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<h3>The Culinary Mavericks of the season<\/h3>\n<p>Taking the challenge in stride are two established chefs who relate more in risk-taking philosophy over cuisine ethnicity.<\/p>\n<p>Mastering the art of culinary modernisation, the Lebanese-rooted <a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/gregmaloufchef\/?hl=en\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Chef Greg Malouf<\/a> has built a name for himself within the realm of Middle Eastern cuisine.
