Saudi Arabia Restaurant Pop-up 2021

Bringing magic, intimacy and luxury to the Saudi Arabian desert in the form of private Mayfair members club, Annabel’s…

Outside the city of Al-'Ula, within the UNESCO world heritage site of Hegra, the 18th century Hegra Fort hosted a 3-month immersive dining experience.

The show stopping focal point of the restaurant’s design: a luscious 5-metre-tall freestanding tree adorned with exotic birds offering vibrant shocks of colour amongst the green leaves.

Nestled around the circumference of the courtyard were 8 private themed dining rooms, each uniquely dressed with custom designed ornaments and furnishings. Huddles of potted plants and accompanying soundscapes led guests further into the jungle oasis.

Lush vegetation was scattered throughout the space. Beautiful wild plants lined the walkways and hanging vines and canopies draped from the walls and ceilings.

A truly breathtaking experience…
