Place Vendôme, Qatar’s premier lifestyle and leisure destination, has officially partnered with the MICHELIN Guide ahead of its debut in Doha. The inaugural MICHELIN Guide Doha 2025 will be unveiled at a VIP ceremony at Raffles Doha on December 12, marking a significant milestone for the city’s culinary scene.
This launch highlights Doha’s emergence as a global cultural and culinary hub, joining other Middle Eastern cities in the prestigious MICHELIN Guide. With a dynamic range of international fine dining and local favourites, the city’s diverse restaurant scene is thriving, further elevating its status as a top-tier tourism destination.
Gwendal Poullennec, International Director of the MICHELIN Guides, said: “These past few years, our inspectors have been keeping a watchful eye on Doha’s culinary evolution and continue to relish the wonderful diversity that this fast-paced city has to offer. From the continually changing skyline of gravity-defying hotels to the rich array of restaurants representing cuisines from all continents, they have comprehensively reviewed the nation’s top eateries. Whether enjoying coffee on the Corniche, wandering around The Pearl, having lunch by the waterside in Lusail, or dining after a mesmerizing visit to the Museum of Islamic Art or in the dynamic, regenerated Msheireb Downtown Doha, our inspectors have truly experienced it all”.
Shane Eldstrom, CEO, United Developers (Place Vendôme), added: “The launch of the MICHELIN Guide Doha is further affirmation of Doha’s coming of age as a culinary destination. This feeds into a wider gastronomic renaissance sweeping the city as it continues to attract a host of new international, regional and local brands and operators”.
