Chef Giovanni Ledon

Composition:

Chef Giovanni’s culinary journey includes prestigious roles at Nero’s Steakhouse at Caesars Palace and as Executive Sous Chef at Mesa Grill in the Atlantis Resort, Nassau. His fascination with Asian flavours blossomed during his tenure at Yellowtail Japanese Restaurant at the Bellagio Hotel in 2010, guiding his current leadership at Akira Back Dubai with the goal of providing guests with the epitome of Chef Akira Back’s culinary mastery. The crowning jewel of his culinary repertoire is the Mediterranean Seabass—a masterpiece born from inspiration drawn from Indonesian-style Jimbaran grilled fish.

On the palate:

Chef Giovanni skillfully combines diverse ingredients, blending den miso and chipotle to create a sauce that delights the palate with its mix of salty, sweet, spicy, and naturally rich umami flavours.

What makes it special?

To complement this culinary marvel, Chef Giovanni adds a dash of sophistication by finishing the dish with pickled onion and salsa verde, infusing it with a refreshing acidity.

Best paired with:

For a complete sensory experience, he recommends pairing the Mediterranean Seabass with the restaurant’s signature kimchi Brussels sprouts and truffle rice clay pot.
