As appetite for chicken continues to grow across the region, KFC is embarking on what\u2019s next with the unveiling of KFC Muse – a fully immersive, two-storey restaurant, showcasing one of the boldest expressions of the brand\u2019s next-generation restaurant design. Designed to disrupt the quick-service restaurant category, the world\u2019s first KFC Muse restaurant opened on Jumeirah Beach Residence (JBR) in Dubai on October 31, pairing the brand\u2019s most craveable chicken with a modern and dynamic dining experience designed around how consumers want to eat today.<\/p>\n

With a focus on the evolved brand experience, KFC Muse features the new visual identity at its heart, set within an innovative space that feels in tune with modern culture while staying true to the brand’s legacy. At its centre is the Kinetic Bucket, the beating heart of KFC Muse, a live canvas that orchestrates content, light and sound to set the mood and keep the environment feeling alive, responsive and in motion.<\/p>\n

As KFC<\/a> continues to bet big on beverages, KWENCH by KFC, the brand\u2019s international beverage platform and sub-brand will make its UAE debut in KFC Muse. The highly anticipated, hand-crafted specialty beverage line features Boba Refreshers, Krunch Shakes, Sparkling Lemonades and Iced Coffees, offering KFC fans a treat beyond mealtimes.<\/p>\n

At the same time, the brand that made chicken famous is introducing new ways to enjoy it with the launch of KFC MIX\u2019D. Bringing what\u2019s next to the chicken category, KFC MIX\u2019D puts fans in control, inviting them to pick their chicken, top it with sauces, add a finishing sprinkle, then mix it all together to unlock even more unlimited customization and flavour discovery.<\/p>\n

KFC Muse in Dubai – The world-first launch of KFC\u2019s new immersive restaurant concept<\/p><\/div>\n

Moving from QSR to QXR<\/strong><\/h3>\n

Scott Mezvinky<\/a>, Global CEO of KFC<\/a> said: “As we set the standard for the modern chicken QSR, we\u2019re disrupting conventions \u2013 moving from QSR, quick service restaurant, to QXR: quality experience restaurant. That\u2019s why we created KFC Muse, an immersive, kinetic restaurant that delivers the experience modern consumers are craving, while retaining the value and efficiency QSR is known for. We chose Dubai to launch KFC Muse because it reflects the ambition we have to modernise the brand across the MENA region and beyond. And we\u2019re excited to bring KFC Muse to other culturally vibrant and trend-setting cities like Seoul in the near future.\u201d<\/p>\n

About the next chapter of KFC<\/strong><\/h3>\n

This next chapter of KFC is designed around hospitality, not just efficiency, moving from static spaces to dynamic environments that adapt throughout the day. From KFC’s most craveable chicken to a specialty drinks line, people have new reasons to choose KFC in a space designed to make them want to stay longer.<\/p>\n

Following the opening in Dubai, a KFC Muse restaurant is planned to open in Seoul by the end of the year. Both restaurants will serve as inspiration for how KFC<\/a> will build and remodel immersive, kinetic restaurants globally at-scale.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
