KEMURI BY DANI GARCÍA

Kemuri is a tribute by the chef from Marbella to one of the most fascinating cuisines in the world, with which he will be able to transport the diner to the heart of Kyoto, a symbol of Japanese tradition and craftsmanship. His extensive and varied menu remains true to its essence, including an authentic proposal with dishes from the most classic Japanese cuisine, such as wagyu ramen, all in combination with a unique and disruptive atmosphere. 

KURAI NIGHTS

Night comes to Kemuri and Dani García’s Japanese tavern becomes a new concept.

When it reaches 00:00, the katanas are drawn, a change to the sound of music from the Omakase bar by the DJ, together with a Japanese show, turns your dining experience into a clandestine cocktail bar. Undoubtedly the place to spend your Marbella evenings.

Kurai, which means “dark” in Japanese, welcomes 45 people who will enjoy Dani García’s first concept dedicated to Japan.

TENKA GOKEN

As the story of the “Five National Treasures of Japan” goes, Kurai Nights begins with a hammer to the ice, and the Tenka Goken arise because that is when the blacksmith begins his work.

A cocktail bar with a signature menu signed by chef Dani García and directed by Manu Valenciano, the Group’s Bar Manager. Inspired by Japan and its traditions, bringing all the senses to Japanese culture through good drinking.

SPANISH SPIRIT AT BIBO SHOREDITCH

BiBo Shoreditch is an uplifting, urbane space that’s perfect for informal lunches and lively dinners. Chef Dani García brings his unique, vibrant form of cooking to London in a relaxed space that is set to become the heart of the foodie scene in London, and which is famous for its stand-out, unforgettable flavours.

BiBo is born from the chef’s desire to bring the spirit of traditional Spanish food to a global audience, with a menu based on his home and his upbringing, honouring the techniques, flavours and ingredients that made him the chef he is today. It’s all about the Andalusian lifestyle based around long, easy-going lunches with friends and family, something we’re confident our London customers will be on board with.

A CUISINE WITHOUT BORDERS

Dani García, one of the most admired and internationally active Spanish chef in the world, the man behind the BiBo Shoreditch restaurant, and who recently announced new openings in Paris and Amsterdam, shares what he loves most about his home town.

Dani García’s position at the pinnacle of Spanish cuisine is the result of his impressive business project: the Dani García Group. After achieving a series of major successes, such as being awarded his Michelin star in 2019, Dani came up with BiBo, featuring venues in Marbella, Madrid, Tarifa, Ibiza and Doha, with the aim of creating a casual tapas and brasserie concept as a way to democratise the experience of a great meal.

Drawing on the natural beauty and unique landscapes of Spain’s southernmost region, the BiBo Shoreditch menu pays tribute to the culinary creativity of the Andalusian region and the various key ingredients that are synonymous with each province.

Welcome to the ideal place to discover the most delicious Spanish flavours, carefully presented in the form of traditional Andalusian dishes and tapas.

DANI GARCÍA AND THE BIBO TEAM HOPE TO SEE YOU SOON!

Kemuri is now a reality, Dani García’s “Izakaya” arrives in his hometown, Marbella. This opening took place at the Hotel Puente Romano, last Friday 29th July. The day came when the chef materialised his goal of having a Japanese restaurant in the group, and moreover, in the capital of the Costa del Sol. 

Japanese gastronomy arrives at the Dani García Group

This tavern is a step into the millenary Japanese gastronomy, a combination of Mediterranean flavours with this traditional Japanese cuisine. This concept will be transformed into “Kurai” in the evenings, a clandestine cocktail bar where you can enjoy a signature menu with exclusive cocktails inspired by the history of Japan’s Five National Treasures. Only you will be lucky enough to get to know the best kept treasures of Japanese culture. 

Where does the Kemuri concept originate?

In the etymological origin of its own name, which means smoke in Japanese, it has a space designed based on the typical color contrast of Japanese architecture. A trip to Asia without leaving the coast of Malaga. A clever interplay of light and shadow forms an enveloping environment, where stone, rough stucco and dark-toned wood combine with other elements such as shoji, traditional sliding doors of translucent paper and wooden frames typical of Japan.

Kemuri’s culinary offer is complemented by a very special liquid proposal where the sake menu stands out, consisting of a meticulous selection of approximately 40 different sakes selected by the Sake Sommelier, Dominik Ponomarew.

KURAI NIGHTS

At 00:00, this Japanese tavern transforms into Kurai Nights, a cocktail bar and invites all the curious to enter a clandestine and unique space, where you can live the most unique nights of Marbella, this refers to “dark” in Japanese. A cocktail bar with a signature menu signed by Dani García and directed by Manu Valenciano, Bar Manager of the Group and the bar team. They are inspired by the history behind the so-called Five National Treasures of Japan, and will put the cherry on top of the Marbella night in a relaxed and fun atmosphere.

With a capacity for up to 45 people, this is the first restaurant concept that Dani García has dedicated to Japanese cuisine, paying homage to friends such as chef Nobu Matsuhisa. Kemuri thus joins the group of restaurants that the Dani García Group already has in his hometown, including Babette, Leña and Alelí, his most recent opening with an Italian accent.
