This expertise and flair, combined with his drive to innovate and produce exciting menus full of flavour, aroma and colour matches perfectly with the brand ethos of Terra Solis Dubai.
“Standing out from the crowd is exactly what we want to do, and, with Hugo’s culinary insight and experience, we are creating a dining destination in its own right in the Dubai desert.”

At Terra Solis Dubai, we are committed to delivering an F&B offering that is representative of the Tomorrowland brand, while always striving to deliver something new and unique to the culinary scene in Dubai,” said Hugo.
The restaurant, which will focus on delivering delicious sharing dishes, will give guests the opportunity to taste the whole world in an incredible setting created by the team behind Tomorrowland, in the spirit of travel, good food and togetherness.
The menu is expected to feature a range of dishes representative of countries around the world, prepared with ingredients from passionately dedicated growers, farmers, and producers sourced according to market availability and made with respect for traditional preparation methods and accompanied by a wide selection of drinks and cocktails and, of course, the incredible music synonymous with Tomorrowland.
