FZN by Bj\u00f6rn Frantz\u00e9n<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

There is currently one person in the world to run three separate restaurants each with three Michelin stars. That man is Swedish chef, Bj\u00f6rn Frantz\u00e9n, and he has blessed Dubai with his talents. FZN blends Bj\u00f6rn\u2019s background in European fine dining with delicate Japanese influences to achieve culinary artistry that must be tasted to be believed. The restaurant is found behind a nondescript door on one Dubai\u2019s two famous palm archipelagos at the Atlantis luxury hotel, home to a total of six Michelin stars across its two adjacent properties \u2013 of which another is run by Bj\u00f6rn. The FZN formalities begin in a Scandi-inspired sitting room more reminiscent of someone\u2019s home than a fine dining establishment. Here guests are served canapes and aperitifs before being ushered into an open kitchen where the magic of FZN occurs before you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
