Dubai, UAE – June 2025: For one night only, culinary alchemy reaches new heights as Smoke & Mirrors, the enigmatic cocktail and cigar lounge perched atop SLS Dubai, joins forces with Revelry, the Michelin Bib Gourmand-awarded Indian tapas bar, to host a daring and flavour-charged collaboration. Taking place on Thursday, June 19, this exclusive experience invites gourmands, cocktail connoisseurs, and Dubai’s cultural tastemakers to indulge in a sensorial evening unlike any other.
Nestled on the 74th floor of SLS Dubai, Smoke & Mirrors is famed for its moody Latin ambiance, exceptional South American fare, and masterfully crafted cocktails. With its panoramic skyline views and sultry interiors, the venue sets the perfect scene for a night that blurs the boundaries between culinary innovation and high-rise escapism.
Known for rewriting Indian cuisine through a lens of modern flair, Revelry has captivated foodies with its audacious interpretation of Indian street food, plated with style and told through flavourful stories. Led by Chef Rahul Rana, the restaurant’s ethos marries bold Indian ingredients with global technique, creating dishes that feel at once familiar and entirely fresh.
This culinary rendezvous brings together the best of both worlds—Revelry’s spice-driven dynamism and Smoke & Mirrors’ Latin soul—for a curated menu that’s layered, surprising, and undeniably indulgent. Guests can expect a vibrant collision of taste and texture: from Revelry’s Jackfruit Momo with smoked tomato chutney and Butter Pepper Garlic Crab in crisp Pie Tee, to Smoke & Mirrors’ Picaña Tartare Cubano and rich Taco de Wagyu, each dish serves as a celebration of culture and creativity.
Equally electrifying are the cocktails, helmed by Vince Varghese of Revelry and Geoffrey Njoroge of Smoke & Mirrors. Highlights include the Himalayan Gooseberry—a layered blend of white rum, amla, and ginger—and Kokam, a tropical explosion of Reposado tequila, curry leaves, and yuzu kosho. These daring concoctions capture the very spirit of the event: bold, playful, and perfectly balanced.
“This collaboration is all about celebrating the spice, soul, and shared stories of Indian and Latin American cuisines,” said Chef Rahul Rana. “We’ve created something that’s not only flavour-forward but also emotionally resonant.”
Chef Paco Morales, Executive Sous Chef at SLS Dubai, added, “Partnering with Revelry allows us to push boundaries and create an evening where guests aren’t just dining—they’re discovering.”
Set against the glittering backdrop of Dubai’s night sky, this one-night-only event is more than just a dinner; it’s a bold statement of what culinary collaboration can be when two daring kitchens come together.
