Vogue Cafe Moscow has celebrated its 11th anniversary
Coco Chanel said that “Fashion does not exist only in dresses. Fashion is in the sky, on the street, fashion has to do with ideas, the way we live, what is happening”. An idea that the Condé Nast group ( @cnirestaurants ) not only shares, but also has materialized through the bars and restaurants that bear the name of the main headers of its magazines. Premises with which it intends to bring taste, smell, hearing, visibility and touch to concepts and intangible ideas related to fashion, style and that lifestyle so characteristic of the editorial group. Because Condé Nast is much more than being up to date, it is prospecting, investigating and creating trends.
Thus, to the family of establishments formed by the already well-known Vogue Café in Moscow (which has just celebrated its 11th anniversary) and Dubai, ( @voguecafe_dubai ) new openings are added in places of interest where the value of the brand attracts travelers more sophisticated in the world.

GQ Bar Dubai style
GQ BAR DUBAI
The GQ man is characterized by being intelligent, dynamic and cultured, as well as demanding high standards of quality, attention and comfort, values perfectly reflected in GQ Bar Dubai ( @gqbardubai ). On an extremely black background, both on the walls and on the slate plates, is presented a space loaded with leather and dim lights and an elaborate kitchen where the rustic finds its place among contemporary techniques: quinoa salad with green asparagus, avocado and orange; an extensive sushi menu; braised red mullet with wakame and razor clam risotto and grilled beef tenderloin with mustard crumbs, herbs, pumpkin puree, goat cheese and baby spinach are just one example.
But perhaps the strength of the GQ Bar, located in the JW Marriott Marquis Hotel Dubai, is precisely that, his bar. Parties with DJs and beautiful people occupy the night scene of a city full of Europeans, North Americans and Australians. Huge adjectives scattered everywhere complete the decorative equation so that the GQ man who visits the bar feels identified and knows that he is in the right place at the right time: “Skillful”, “Stylish”, “Bon vivant”, “Passionate”...
