London Kosher caterer signs deal to run kitchen in Dubai
1070 Kitchen signed a Memorandum of Understanding with Blue Horizon in the Gulf state, allowing it to provide kosher food to hotels, restaurants and events
A London kosher caterer has agreed an historic agreement with a firm in the United Arab Emirates to establish a kitchen in Dubai.
This comes after the landmark agreement between Israel and the U.A.E. to forge formal relations through the Abraham Accords.
1070 Kitchen, a name inspired by the date Jews first arrived in Britain, signed a Memorandum of Understanding with Blue Horizon in the Gulf state, allowing it to provide kosher food to hotels, restaurants, for tourists and corporate clients.
Operating under the London Beth Din’s kosher licence, it supplies leading catering companies, hotels and venues, including The Savoy, The Ritz, The Dorchester, Claridges, and the Houses of Parliament.
Its managing director Natalie Salama-Levy said: “We are very excited to be bringing our unique celebration of Jewish cuisine to Dubai in 2021 and to play our part in ensuring kosher visitors are able to enjoy excellent food during their stay”.
The partnership was established following the support of the UAE-Israel Business Council, Founding Member, Justine Zwerling and the Founder and CEO of Crumbiz, Shahar Matorin.
Its Israeli-born head chef, Oren Goldfeld, helped establish the new kitchen, and has previously held top roles including at Yotam Ottolenghi’s Nopi, and the prestigious Restaurant 1701, a British first fine-dining eatery celebrating Jewish cuisine

Engaging
Being a community platform means so much more than producing a newspaper and website. One of our proudest roles is media partnering with our invaluable charities to amplify the outstanding work they do to help us all.
Celebrating
There’s no shortage of oys in the world but Jewish News takes every opportunity to celebrate the joys too, through projects like Night of Heroes, 40 Under 40 and other compelling countdowns that make the community kvell with pride.
Pioneering
In the first collaboration between media outlets from different faiths, Jewish News worked with British Muslim TV and Church Times to produce a list of young activists leading the way on interfaith understanding.
Campaigning
Royal Mail issued a stamp honouring Holocaust hero Sir Nicholas Winton after a Jewish News campaign attracted more than 100,000 backers. Jewish Newsalso produces special editions of the paper highlighting pressing issues including mental health and Holocaust remembrance.
Easy access
In an age when news is readily accessible, Jewish News provides high-quality content free online and offline, removing any financial barriers to connecting people.
Voice of our community to wider society
The Jewish News team regularly appears on TV, radio and on the pages of the national press to comment on stories about the Jewish community. Easy access to the paper on the streets of London also means Jewish News provides an invaluable window into the community for the country at large.
We hope you agree all this is worth preserving.
