Review of Fulvio – Highlights
- The brain child of Orange Hospitality head chef Fulvio Opalio, his namesake, delivers high quality Italian dishes in the bustling Time Out Market Dubai. Chef Fulvio is most popular for his other restaurant In Borro Tuscan Bistro at the Jumeirah Al Naseem Hotel next to the turtle lagoon.
- Fulvio Dubai recreates some of his most popular dishes in a smaller menu format without fuss such as the famous burr Ata or tagliatelle al ragu di vitello.
- The risotto in for a di Parmigiano e tartufo nero is cooked and then mixed inside their large Parmesan wheel with butter and black truffle. It is one of the only places in Dubai that you can get pasta or risotto cooked in a cheese wheel. Word of caution: it is extra cheesy so diner beware!
- All the pasta are made fresh in house by hand.
Review of Fulvio – Things to Note
- Due to Covid capacity limitations there can be a queue outside where you have to wait 10-30 minutes to enter this Market.
- The portions are small and quite pricey, testament to the quality and time it tastes to prepare each dish in the background.
- Fulvio is located inside Time Out Market Dubai which is spread across 43,000 square feet and has 17 other restaurants and 3 bars inside Souk al Bahar adjacent to Dubai Mall.
Review of Fulvio – Tips
- Some of the restaurants have a 45 minute wait. A good hack to avoid waiting in line to order is to download the Time Out Market app on iOS or Android and you can place your order directly on the app. Make sure you have push notifications enabled to let you know when your order is ready for collection as you will not get a physical buzzer this way.
- Come at off peak hours to avoid the queues as you can stay as long as you like once you are inside. There is a gorgeous outdoor terrace balcony with views over Burj Khalifa and the Dubai Fountain shows.
