Jumeirah Restaurants, the dedicated branded restaurant division within the Jumeirah Group, has signed a license agreement with Ingeo Limited to open eight restaurants in Moscow.

The noodle house has already proven to be a success with 17 restaurants open in Dubai, Abu Dhabi, Muscat, Riyadh, Kuwait, Cairo, Limassol, Doha, and Lahore and is a popular choice for diners with its unique combination of wholesome food and energetic ambience. Inspired by the food and nightlife of exciting South East Asian cities such as Hong Kong, Shanghai, Bangkok and Jakarta, the noodle house offers delicious Asian delicacies in an informal yet stylish setting.

A first noodle house is expected to open in Moscow in 2012 and will be followed by seven other restaurants across the city.

With this opening, Jumeirah Restaurants are consolidating their ambitious growth plans to penetrate new markets as the signing follows the recent openings of the noodle house outlets in Kuwait, Dubai and Pakistan with plans to open several more in the next few years.
