ISHQ by Chef Bhatia, an Indian fine-dining restaurant led by chef Nimish Bhatia, has opened at Raffles Dubai in Wafi City. The room has just 22 seats.

Dinner is a tasting menu of 13 or 19 courses, each in vegetarian and non-vegetarian versions. There is one service a night, starting at 8pm, so every table eats at the same time.

The 13-course menu costs Dh799 and the 19-course menu Dh1,099 per person, with an optional drinks pairing at Dh500. With so few seats, book ahead: reservations are taken through OpenTable from the restaurant's website, ishq.ae, by phone on +971 55 275 9691 or by email at reservations@ishq.ae.
