First of its kind Yamaha Japanese café opens in Dubai’s new BoxPark
Buckle-up as café racers, bobbers, trackers and most especially food explorers haul their way to a new haven in Dubai – the Yamaha Café. Stage your spirit in a quintessentially blended Japanese flair and sportive biking culture settling while enjoying choice sushi, sashimi, curries, tempura, and an exclusive range of okashi – a traditional Japanese sweet.
Present in the opening ceremony last 17th of March were members of the Al Yousuf Group – the exclusive distributor of Yamaha in the UAE who are openly supporting their new venture. Also present were the members of Yamaha Japan as well as distributors from other countries. Amidst the amazed audience, the beauty of the café shone with its display of Yamaha bikes fused with traditional Japanese architecture. Besides the Yamaha displays, the café also showcases other popular biking accessory brands like Alpine Stars, Nolan and Jobe, which can be purchased or ordered from the catalogue for delivery.
The Yamaha Café was inaugurated last 17th March by Jorge Lorenzo Guerrero, the Spanish motorcycle road racer who is a two-time 250cc World Champion and 2010 and 2012 MotoGP World Champion. Lorenzo currently competes in the MotoGP class, riding for the factory Yamaha team alongside Valentino Rossi. He also competed in MotoGP’s opening race in Losail, Qatar last month.
Commenting on the opening of the Yamaha Café, Mr. Iqbal Al Yousuf, President of Al Yousuf Group said: “Our association with Yamaha has been a long-standing and highly fruitful one. The opening of the café marks a new beginning in our enduring relationship as we expand into the restaurant and café business. We are very pleased to open this unique café in Dubai in association with Yamaha.”
“The Yamaha Café is a unique blend of Japanese elegance and a biker’s ruggedness. The Box Park offers an ideal location for the café, being the latest and one of the liveliest hotspots in the city. We are certain it will be a huge success in the UAE.”
Yamaha Café is located at The BoxPark, Al Wasl Road, Dubai.
