Soursoup guava mint bingsu Jerusalem artichoke hazelnut kombu Chef Matin is famous for his audacious approach to bridging the gap between sweet and savoury.

You can elevate the experience with optional grape pairings for an added Dhs388 or a tea pairing for an extra Dhs188. Seats are, predictably, limited.

Space Available's Jakarta Community Center Redefines Urban Well-Being
Summary Space Available, the Bali-based sustainable design studio and brand, has recently unveiled its ambitious Jakarta Community Center project. This new hub inJakartais designed to be more than just a physical space — it serves as a tangible manifestation of the brand's core philosophy. Deeply rooted in circular design and environmental responsibility, the center aims to foster a vibrant community around the principles of sustainability. Originally designed by renowned Indonesian architectAndra Matin, the structure had undergone multiple transformations over the years, leading to structural inconsistencies and outdated systems. The renovation aimed not only to restore the building but to reimagine its purpose, reviving Kemang's cultural significance while fostering collaboration and creativity. The refurbished center embraces a flexible, evolving interior, treating the space as a large-scale installation rather than a fixed architectural form. Over 11 tons of locally recycled plastic, handcrafted by artisans across Indonesia, were used to construct structural elements, furniture and decorative features. The façade, as well as the interiors, showcase this material innovation by merging sustainability with traditional craftsmanship. Dedicated zones include a conversation pit equipped with plastic recycling machines, upcycling stations for garment repair and handwoven furniture crafted using circular design methodologies. Beyond its architectural transformation, the center functions as a self-care community space. It's built around five core pillars: movement, meditation, learning, listening and nourishing, where visitors can engage in meditation sessions, sound therapy, workshops to cultural gatherings. The facility also includes a meditation room, sound library, reading space, a medicinal restaurant and bar, ensuring that each area offers meaningful interaction rather than traditional retail experiences. Events and educational programs further animate the space, fostering an environment of co-creation and connection. Jakarta Community CenterJl. Kemang Raya.8B 9, RT.9/RW.1, Bangka, Kec.

Avetta Report Investigates Rise in Workplace Fatalities and Safety Drivers that Protect Lives
New insights show significant life-saving impact from compliance, safety audits and long-term safety engagement LEHI, Utah & HOUSTON, May 28, 2025--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Avetta®, the leading provider of supply chain risk management (SCRM) software, today announced the inaugural Avetta Insights and Impact Report. The study is a deep dive into the systemic drivers behind fatal workplace incidents based on real-world data from the company's extensive client and supplier network. It also identifies evidence-based strategies that meaningfully reduce fatality rates across the supply chain. According to the National Safety Council (NSC), 5,283 workers died on the job in 2023, amounting to 14 families per day facing the loss of a loved one due to a preventable tragedy. Beyond the human toll, the economic impact of workplace deaths in 2023 reached $7.7 billion, according to an Avetta estimate based on NSC data. "Our commitment to safer, smarter supply chains is unwavering—we believe even a single workplace death is one too many," said Arshad Matin, president, CEO and board member at Avetta. "This report demonstrates the tremendous value of using data, predictive technologies and innovation to prevent fatalities on the job." Key insights from the report: Suppliers that were fully compliant with established safety standards saw a 62% lower fatality rate than non-compliant suppliers (1.19 vs. 3.12), emphasizing the crucial role of prequalification and compliance processes. Suppliers that underwent more than three years of regular safety manual audits experienced a 15% improvement in fatality rates (0.45 vs. 0.53), demonstrating the importance of ongoing evaluation. Organizations involved in Avetta's safety programs for more than 10 years had a 45% lower fatality rate than those with only 2-3 years of involvement (2.04 vs. 3.7), proving that consistent, long-term investment in safety pays off. "While injury rates have steadily declined over the past decade, fatality rates remain unacceptably high," Matin added. "Reversing this trend demands a long-term commitment to proactive, data-driven safety practices, going beyond compliance to build true resilience. We're proud to be at the center of a community of businesses dedicated to raising the standard of safety by focusing on continuously improving." With innovative technology, services and support—and through strategic partnerships with organizations like the NSC and American Society of Safety Professionals—Avetta leads the industry in creating safe, secure and sustainable supply chains. The Avetta Safety Maturity Index, launched in 2024 and informed by NSC best practices, equips organizations to identify risk earlier, strengthen safety systems and reduce the likelihood of serious injuries and fatalities more effectively. As a leading nonprofit safety advocate in America for over 110 years, NSC's mission is to eliminate the leading causes of preventable death and injury, with core focus in the workplace and on roadways. "At the National Safety Council, we know every single workplace fatality is preventable," said Mark Chung, executive vice president of Safety Leadership and Advocacy at the NSC. "Research like the Avetta Insights and Impact Report, combined with data-driven solutions such as the NSC Consultative Safety Journey and the Avetta Safety Maturity Index, empower organizations to take meaningful, proactive steps toward eliminating injuries and saving lives." To learn more, visit About Avetta The Avetta SaaS platform helps clients manage supply chain risk and their suppliers to become more qualified for jobs.

SciTech Awards: Captioning Oscar Recognizes ‘Commitment to Accessibility'
Marlee Matlin accepted an Academy Award of Merit – an Oscar statuette – that was created to broadly recognize 'all the individuals who have developed and supported captioning technology, whether open or closed, for film,' Tuesday evening at The Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences' annual Scientific and Technical Awards, which were presented at the Academy Museum of Motion Pictures. Oscar-winning actress Matin has long championed captioning, and on stage she shared her hope that the Oscar statuette, which will reside at the Academy Museum, will bring further awareness of captioning technology and serve as a reminder of the Academy's 'commitment to accessibility and inclusion.' More from Variety 'In Rhythm' Named Eva Maria Daniels Prize Winner at Stockfish Film Festival - Film News in Brief Academy President Janet Yang Urges Preservation of 'Human Authorship' in the AI Era Motion Picture Academy Releases Version 2.0 of Its ACES Color Encoding System (EXCLUSIVE) Calling the Academy the 'deaf community's biggest ally' in a conversation with Variety, Matlin saluted it for being at the forefront of new technologies in film, but suggested that there's more work that can be done to advance captioning tech and have it used more broadly, including for classic films as well as new movies. 'We're still on a path towards full accessibility, and the Academy recognizes that equality is very important, that all audiences are welcome in the film going experience and all audiences should be able to watch films together.' Also during the ceremony, which was originally slated to be held on Feb 18 but was postponed amid the L.A. fires, Technical Achievement Awards (Academy Certificates) and Scientific and Engineering Awards (Academy Plaques) were presented to innovators behind advancements ranging from tech that addresses fire stunt safety to camera stabilization and character realism. 'You are the unsung heroes, but tonight, we sing your praises,' host Diego Luna ('Andor') told the honorees 'who make cinema the global force that it is today.' Highlighted areas of advancement included work in denoising, meaning tools for fixing imperfections in CG rendered images. Among them was Wētā FX's ML Denoiser, for which Javor Kalojanov and Kimball Thurston were presented Technical Achievement Awards. This Denoiser has been used on Weta projects including, most recently, Oscar nominated 'Better Man' and 'A Minecraft Movie.' The term ML, or machine learning, is a subset of AI. Of such applications of the technology, Thurston said it 'empowers creativity,' explaining 'it's not Gen AI; it's not transforming text to an image. It's a tool to improve the quality of an image, and in doing so, save time and enhance [an artists] creativity.' Also in this area, Thijs Vogels, Fabrice Rousselle, David Adler, Gerhard Röthlin and Mark Meyer received Scientific and Engineering Awards for the creation of Disney's ML Denoiser. Technical Achievement Awards were awarded to Attila T. Áfra for the Intel Open Image Denoise, and Timo Aila for his work at NVIDIA applying U-Nets to denoising. On-set safety developments including gels that allow fire to burn safety on the skin of stunt performers. In this area, Jayson Dumenigo received a Scientific and Engineering Award for the Action Factory Hydrogels, while Technical Achievement Awards were presented to Neeme Vaino for the development of Fireskin360 Naked Burn Gel, and Dustin Brooks and Colin Decker for Fire for Hire's naked burn gel. Scientific and Engineering Award recipients that adressed camera stabilization included Curt Schaller for the concept, design and development of the Trinity 2 camera stabilization system, and Roman Foltyn for the software and hardware design of its motorized stabilized head; Steve Wagner, Garrett Brown, Jerry Holway and Robert Orf for Tiffen's Steadicam Volt stabilization system; and Dave Freeth hand-held Stabileye three-axis motorized camera stabilization system. In sound, Scientific and Engineering Award honorees included Nir Averbuch, Yair Chuchem and Dan Raviv for Sound Radix's Auto Align Post 2, used by dialogue editors to blend multiple moving microphones during postproduction. Technical Aceivement Awards were presented to Mark Noel for contributions to the NACMO series of transportable six-degrees-of-freedom motion base technology; Su Tie, Bei Shimen and Zhao Yanchong for the Ronin 2 gimbal system; and Tabb Firchau, John Ellison, Steve Webb, David Bloomfield and Shane Colton for Freefly Systems' handheld Mōvi gimbals. Technical Achievement Awards were additionally bestowed on Essex Edwards, James Jacobs, Jernej Barbic, Crawford Doran and Andrew van Straten for the Ziva VFX system, aiding VFX practitioners in create muscles and skin for digital characters.
