One of the city centre’s longest serving restaurants is reopening its doors on the 5th of July after moving to one of Belfast’s most exciting redevelopments.
Three quarters of a million pounds has been invested in fitting out Flame’s brand new eatery occupying the bottom floor of the iconic Ewart Building on Bedford Street, which has recently been renovated.
The move will see over 40 staff fire up an innovative new menu showcasing the country’s best regional produce.
Flame’s Gaurav Kher said: “With 10 years of business under our belt, when the opportunity arose to expand and make the move among some of the city centre’s most prestigious landmarks, we grabbed it with both hands.
“This significant investment shows our commitment and passion to Belfast’s hospitality scene and we hope our new venue will continue to grow this vital sector of the NI economy.
“We’ve always had a strong ethos of working instinctively with fire ovens to marry together the very best ingredients. We’re proud to be working with a range of fantastic local suppliers to bring the best of Northern Ireland’s produce to your plate.”
The Ewart Building project has seen an £85 million renovation to a Grade B listed linen warehouse dating back to 1870, which is now home to a number of multinational firms.
Flame now sits amongst a number of hotels, Grade-A office space, The Ulster Hall and the new Transport Hub tapping into the corporate, leisure and tourism markets.
The 120-seater restaurant will be accessed from Franklin Street and you can check out their new menu on their social channels in the coming weeks.
