Latest addition to the renowned W Hotel brand upon the Palm Jumeirah Dubai, Torno Subito realizes the sentiment of World’s number one chef and 3-star Michelin Holder Massimo Bottura having fun. The chef known for passion, creativity and even his quirky sense of style saw a unique opportunity with this venture, in that he could recreate his childhood memories through intelligent design and an innovative food offering. It was to be a metaphysical manifestation of beachside days reminiscent of Rimini’s coastal playground of the 1950s and 60s. The interiors were to transport you to destinations you couldn’t possibly imagine through an utterly intoxicating reflection of Massimo’s affection with the past. Film was to be an integral expression throughout as inspiration from Fellini films took precedent. The venue in its entirety is a beautiful fusion, bringing together the design, food and influences from the golden days into one harmonious offering. Days of Italian pop culture are relieved in a bewitching series of pure memoirs, satisfying Dubai’s crave for an authentic experience in its absence of nostalgia. Perfectly interactive as guests become an inherent part of the design, Torno welcomes a playful charm to the desert with its distinctive storyline in this somewhat saturated demographic.
