He came, he saw and he was mighty impressed. So much so that he now wants to bring his two restaurants to Dubai. Entrepreneur Jonathan Cheban, better known as the Kim Kardashian’s BFF, wants to open branches of his Sushi Couture and Burger Bandit in the city.

“I love it here. I feel like I belong,” he told tabloid!. “And the restaurants will fit right in here too.”

A self-confessed foodie, Cheban, who was in town over the weekend for the Vogue Fashion Dubai Experience, recently launched his food-focused lifestyle website thedishh.com.

“Nobody knows food like i do. And we’re mixing it with celebrity lifestyle — basically life through my eyes and from my perspective,” he said.

Cheban, who also owns a number of companies, is best known for his appearance on the hit reality show Keeping Up With the Kardashians. He said the Kardashian family were the most hardworking family he’s ever known.

“I woke up early to catch my flight to Dubai and messaged Kim at 5 in the morning. She was already at the gym working out. They’re crazy,” he said.
