Story of Gerbou
In the dynamic landscape of Dubai, a city where innovation and tradition merge to create an ever-evolving tapestry of experiences, nestled in the Nad Al Sheba 1 neighborhood, a unique collaboration between Tashkeel, an art and design consultancy with studio offices and incubators for those in the creative field collaborating on design with Kristina Zanic Consultants, and Atelier House Hospitality, a name synonymous with bespoke dining experiences, has given rise to Gerbou. Tashkeel, with its roots deep in the cultural grass roots of the UAE since 2008, has been the patron, and the home of emerging design and artistic expression, while Atelier House Hospitality has carved a niche in curating gastronomic journeys that speak to the soul. Together, they have woven their expertise to bring forth a concept that is a celebration of locale, heritage, and forward-thinking elegance in food and spacial design.
