The French hospitality group Paris Society plans to roll out a portfolio of new destinations across Dubai, Abu Dhabi and Ras Al Khaimah from late 2026.
Paris Society is expanding its Middle East footprint with a series of restaurant and beach club openings across the UAE, led by the arrival of MŪN, its contemporary Japanese dining concept, at Dubai’s J1 Beach.
The French hospitality group plans to roll out a portfolio of new destinations across Dubai, Abu Dhabi and Ras Al Khaimah from late 2026 into early 2027, spanning Japanese and Greek restaurants, Italian café culture and Mediterranean beachfront experiences.
MŪN, which originated on Paris’s Champs-Élysées, will combine contemporary Japanese cuisine with Parisian glamour at J1 Beach, Dubai’s luxury beachfront dining destination.
The concept will feature an indoor restaurant and an outdoor garden overlooking the beach, with sharing dishes, music and a relaxed atmosphere designed to encourage long evenings over food and drinks.
“Bringing MŪN to Dubai has been an ambition for some time,” said Rizwan Kassim, CEO of Paris Society. “Its Japanese cuisine and Parisian character add a distinct experience to the city’s dining offer. At J1 Beach, we see an opportunity to contribute to a destination where dining is central to the appeal of the beachfront.”
The opening forms part of a broader push into the UAE’s increasingly competitive hospitality market, where luxury dining, lifestyle destinations and beach clubs have become important attractions for residents and international visitors.
