Ferdinand Hédiard introduced his first store with an evocative desire: “let a breeze of exotic scents blow through Paris”. Now the authentic Parisian experience wafts through the Emirates, with a wealth of traditional French and adventurous fusion dishes expertly crafted by our Chefs alongside Hédiard’s world-renowned boutique and confectionery.From Scheherazade onwards, Arabia has always embraced the power of mystique, of never knowing quite what’s coming next – and it’s this sense of potential, of discovery, that Hédiard evokes so artfully in a thousand and one different ways. A great place to unwind and people-watch over a luxury coffee or an all-day meal, there’s nothing in the Middle East to match for what the French call l’art de vivre: the art of living well.
