Jumeirah Group, the luxury hotel group, has acquired the rights to an array of restaurant brands from the Caprice Holdings portfolio, including Rivington Grill, The Ivy, Le Caprice, Scott’s and private members’ club Annabel’s. The partnership with Caprice Holdings, which is owned by entrepreneur Richard Caring, will enable Jumeirah Restaurants to develop the restaurant brands throughout the Middle East and North Africa and follows the critically acclaimed Rivington Grill at Souk Al Bahar in Dubai. The rights to the Caprice Holdings brands in the Middle East had previously been owned by F&B Company, part of Tatweer. The management and assets of the F&B Company have been integrated into Jumeirah Restaurants, including the management of Urbano in Souk Al Bahar. Jumeirah Restaurants is currently reviewing the best potential locations for these brands in the region, according to reports originating in the Middle East. It is believed that The Ivy will replace Scarlett's at Emirates Towers and Le Caprice will replace Vu's at the same hotel, although Jumeirah Group has not confirmed this. A Rivington Grill is also understood to be earmarked for Madinat Jumeirah and at a location in Abu Dhabi.
