MARCO AQUAROLI

With silver and white interiors, a sandy terrace overseeing the iconic Burj Al Arab and waves lapping the shore, Rockfish in Jumeirah Al Naseem serves up Mediterranean-style seafood in glam but unstuffy surroundings serving fresh seafood, sublime signature dishes and stunning sunsets. Passion and simplicity are the main ingredients of the menu that takes inspiration from the coastal cuisine of Tuscany. Taking guests on a journey to the modern Mediterranean is Executive Sous Chef Marco Acquaroli, an Italian chef born and raised in Sarnico, a small town in the region of Lombardy. Over the years, Marco has travelled and worked in luxury 5-star hotels and in some of the finest Michelin starred restaurants across Europe, Africa, and the Middle East, including Piazza Duomo in Italy, Domaine de Chateauvieux in Switzerland and Il Palagio in Denmark. With more than 10 years of experience in the culinary world, Marco is known to create exquisite delicacies that are not only highly regarded by peers but is reflective in every dish brought to the table at Rockfish from the coasts of Italy.
