Cantonese dining concept Hakkasan is set to open at the St Regis Al Mouj Muscat Resort in Oman - its 12th location worldwide.  

Scheduled for an October 2024 launch, the restaurant aims to introduce a new level of modern Cantonese cuisine to Oman's food scene. 

Since its inception in 2001 in London, Hakkasan has offered top-tier dining experiences and achieved Michelin recognition for its Dubai and Abu Dhabi locations.  

The Muscat venue will continue this tradition, offering a menu that re-imagines authentic Cantonese dishes using classic culinary techniques. 

It will feature the brand’s signature dishes such as Grilled Chilean Seabass and Crispy Duck Salad.  

Zawya quoted Tao Group Hospitality co-CEO Noah Tepperberg: “We are delighted to bring to life Hakkasan’s philosophy of ancient gastronomy re-imagined for the modern day at the St. Regis Al Mouj Muscat Resort.  

“We promise to deliver an intriguing blend of contemporary Cantonese cuisine and an atmosphere shrouded in mystery that will truly captivate guests. 

“Hakkasan’s Cantonese heritage is at the heart of everything we do. We honour tradition but [...] look for ways to push the boundaries of luxury and strive for excellence and quality which extends to every touch point.” 

Hakkasan's interior design is a concept originally created by Christian Liaigre, and is known for blending contemporary style with traditional Chinese motifs.  

The Muscat location will maintain this aesthetic, providing an intimate dining environment. 

St Regis Al Mouj Muscat Resort general manager Tarek Mourad said: “It is with great excitement that we welcome Hakkasan and its exceptionally talented team to our resort.  

“This partnership further enriches and expands our range of exquisite culinary offerings, reinforcing the St Regis Al Mouj Muscat Resort as a must-visit dining destination for both locals and visitors from all corners of the world.”
