Sindalah Island, Neom‘s first completed megaproject, has transformed from a luxurious superyacht destination into a gourmet paradise. Spanning 840,000 square meters, the island boasts an 86-berth marina, a world-class golf club, a state-of-the-art spa, and vibrant social spaces like The Village and Promenade. Now, adding a culinary highlight, Sindalah Island will feature seven unique dining experiences under the Joël Robuchon banner in collaboration with 7 Management.
The legendary, multi-Michelin-starred chef Joël Robuchon, celebrated for revolutionizing and modernizing French dining, may no longer be with us, but his signature minimalist style endures, captivating discerning gourmets worldwide. With a remarkable 20 Michelin stars to his name, Robuchon’s famed Pommes Purée, or mashed potatoes, was a soul-satisfying dish etched in memory. Guests at Sindalah can now experience his culinary genius across seven different venues.
Begin the day with freshly baked croissants at La Bakery, indulge in mimosas and lively conversations at Les Bubbles, or satisfy a sweet tooth at La Crème Des Desserts. Chocolate lovers can delight in La Cocoa, while Le Deli offers Robuchon’s classic flair through curated bites. For a scenic end to the day, head to Le Sunset for panoramic views with sundowners, or savor a memorable beachside evening at La Mer, rounding off a food-filled day in Sindalah’s pristine surroundings.
Joël Robuchon, whose global culinary empire earned 23 Michelin stars, and his landmark Nevada outpost offering a 12-course tasting menu for a staggering $620 is the perfect fit for Sindalah. With the world’s wealthiest expected to flock to Crown Prince MBS’s superyacht destination, these restaurants are sure to be packed to capacity.
About Joël Robuchon
The late culinary legend boasted a career spanning over six decades. Initially aspiring to become a priest, his first experience in the kitchen was peeling vegetables with nuns. Call it fate, but he fell in love with cooking and began apprenticing as a pastry chef at the age of 15. By 30, he was running the kitchen at the Concorde Lafayette Hotel in Paris and opened his first restaurant, Jamin, in 1981. In less than four years, Jamin earned three Michelin stars in consecutive years. Robuchon went on to open over 20 restaurants worldwide and still holds the record for the most Michelin stars ever awarded to a chef. Never one to be satisfied, the famous chef once said, “There is no such thing as the perfect meal; one can always do better.”
Details of when these Joël Robuchon-backed dining concepts will open in Sindalah Island are still under wraps.
