Chef Izu Ani has been awarded a UAE Golden Visa for his dedication to the restaurant industry in the emirate.
Chef Izu Ani says, “I feel honoured and proud to have been recognised with the UAE Gold Card Visa. To me, Dubai is not a transient place, it’s somewhere that we can call home, rather than just pass through. It’s a destination that allows us to grow. When we invest in ourselves, in our passions and projects, we plant the seeds of development. Seeds that can grow into cities, where we can spread our roots. With hard work comes reward and recognition, and it is so inspiring to live in a place where we can achieve our goals. Dubai enables us to see the world with the eyes of a child, to explore and build our dreams into our realities, and for that I will always be grateful.”
After he came to Dubai in 2010, Izu launched YSeventy7, his own creative consulting and management agency, specialising in the food and beverage industry.
Chef Izu has launched popular concepts such as GAIA in partnership with Evgeny Kuzin, Carine, The Lighthouse, Izu Brasserie & Bakery, Sum+Things in Riyadh and Izu Restaurant, Mandarin Oriental, Doha.
Most recently, the chef announced the launch of Kitch-In, a partnership with Evgeny Kuzin and Accor Hotels. Kitch-In is an integrated food-technology platform that brings acclaimed chefs and food scientists together to deliver premium cuisine at affordable prices.
The golden visa was launched by His Highness Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, the Vice President and Prime Minister of the UAE and Ruler of Dubai in 2019.
