For everyone who has eaten at one of his restaurants in Paris, chef <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cyrillignac.com\/en\/chef\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Cyril Lignac<\/a> opens at the beginning of 2022 at the legendary Amstel Hotel! We have enjoyed our diners in his restaurant Le Chardenoux and Aux Pr\u00e9s, but he has three other restaurants called Ischia, Le Bar des Pr\u00e9s and Dragon. It is great to hear that this new chef will open a new culinary hotspot in Amsterdam, although we have enjoyed the switch of the kitchen of the restaurant at the Amstel Hotel to more simple and comfort dishes. <\/em><\/p>\n<p>The restaurant at the legendary Amstel Hotel, owned by Katara Hospitality and managed by InterContinental Hotels &amp; Resorts, becomes the first restaurant of the French celebrity chef, tv-star and author outside France. The restaurant, which is scheduled to open in 2022, will be based on Lignac\u2019s successful formula in Paris.<\/p>\n<p><!--more--><\/p>\n<h3><strong>Enjoy Cyril Lignac\u2019s Seafood restaurant concept with a view over the Amstel river<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>A varied menu will be presented to the guests, which is a combination of Lignac\u2019s French background and international impressions which he collected during his trips around the world. The new restaurant will add a modern twist to the iconic hotel and will still honour the original image of the hotel. The restaurant will introduce the renewed version of his successful seafood concept. All of this will take place in collaboration with the power of Katara Hospitality.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI am pleased to open a new restaurant in this beautiful city and at the Amstel Hotel. It is a fantastic and iconic hotel which is located at one of the best locations of Amsterdam. The proximity to the river and the canals gives a great opportunity to create an elegant and charming experience. I am proud that I can contribute to the rich history and success of the hotel with my own culinary view\u201d, according to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/cyril_lignac\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Cyril Lignac<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/amstelhotel\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">The Amstel Hotel<\/a> managed to keep her authentical charm for more than 150 years, which will be combined with the innovative culinary world. This collaboration will be the start of a new future of the legendary Amstel Hotel, and it will become the new fashionable location of the \u2018Venice of the North\u2019, without a doubt. \u201cA new chapter for the Amstel will start with the arrival of chef Cyril Lignac. We are planning to completely renovate the restaurant, as part of this project, where we still protect the image of the \u2018Grande Dame\u2019. The arrival of Cyril Lignac will contribute to a great future for the Amstel Hotel\u201d, according to Rudolf van Dijk, General Manager of the hotel.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>Katara Hospitality<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/katarahospitality\/?hl=en\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Katara Hospitality<\/a> has been a market leader for more than 50 years in the hospitality industry and has a portfolio which contains iconic hotels in Qatar and the most important cities of the world, and witnessed an unprecedented growth in hospitality industry related projects at a luxurious level.
