G&ouml;khan Girmez is a powerhouse of talent with an interest in all things beautiful &ndash; whether it&rsquo;s a well-tailored suit or a gorgeous food spread &ndash; one look at his socials and you&rsquo;ll know exactly what we&rsquo;re talking about. 
 
When he&rsquo;s not jet-setting across the globe or sitting front row at fashion shows, G&ouml;khan manages PR &amp; Communications for two of the best venues in Downtown Dubai &ndash; <a href="https://www.dubainight.com/dubai/mag/food-drinks/galliard-brasserie-a-turkish-delight-right-in-the-heart-of-downtown-dubai,28,30262.html">The Galliard</a> and HuQQa. We thought it&rsquo;d be fun to get to know him a bit better: 
 
Q) Who&rsquo;s the nicest celebrity you&rsquo;ve met so far?

I&#39;d say Floyd Mayweather. People often have a different perception of him because of the way he presents himself in the media, but I found him extremely humble with a genuine interest in people. He asked me a lot of questions about myself and my friends too. Impressive man. 
 
Q) What&rsquo;s a fashion trend you can never get tired of? 
 
<img alt="" src="https://production-dubainight.s3.me-south-1.amazonaws.com/legacy/editor/10/fichiers/images/65641576_2283731315029501_1787243865903062564_n.jpg" style="width: 100%;" /> 
 
Vintage watches&ndash; I have a whole collection! I also love wearing light-wash denim. I also have collection of shoes that match what I wear everyday. 
 
Q) How do you like to chill out on your day off? 
 
<img alt="" src="https://production-dubainight.s3.me-south-1.amazonaws.com/legacy/editor/10/fichiers/images/52508202_400528203840972_406717904064226272_n.jpg" style="width: 100%;" /> 
 
I really like the vibe going on at The Galliard which makes my job a whole lot easier! I also like to try out new cuisines so I end up discovering a lot of new restaurants in the city. Of course, after all that food, I usually end up in the gym where I love to run and lift heavy. 
 
Q) What&rsquo;s the first thing you notice about someone when you meet them? 
 
I notice the way a person dresses &ndash; it shows how they feel about themselves on the inside. 
 
Q) Your favorite party in Dubai? 
 
WHITE Dubai! I appreciate the management and how they really put in a lot of effort into making each night fabulous. Special thanks to Mr Elie Saba. 
 
Q) As a foodie, what&rsquo;s the one Turkish dish that you&rsquo;d recommend to anybody? 
 
I am a big meat lover! I can&rsquo;t get enough of the Charcoal Doner Kebab at HuQQa, it&rsquo;s called Iskender &ndash; like Alexander the Great but far more stronger and heavier than him! 
 
Q) Where can we find the best view of the Burj Khalifa in Dubai? 
 
<img alt="" src="https://production-dubainight.s3.me-south-1.amazonaws.com/legacy/editor/10/fichiers/images/IMG-20191017-WA0026.jpg" style="width: 100%;" /> 
 
The Galliard, of course! It&rsquo;s got everything you could want in a venue&ndash;an unbeatable view of the Burj Khalifa, delicious food and a &lsquo;grammable spot called the &ldquo;#burjmoon&quot;. We&rsquo;ve had a number of influencers visit us only so they could get their pictures taken here! 
 
Q) Who&rsquo;s your biggest fashion inspiration? 
 
<img alt="" src="https://production-dubainight.s3.me-south-1.amazonaws.com/legacy/editor/10/fichiers/images/david-beckham-gq-0416-2.jpg" style="width: 100%;" /> 
 
David Beckham! Whether it&rsquo;s a classic suit or a white T-shirt, he can making anything seem fashionable! Tom Hardy is a fashion icon too. 
 
Q) Since you love travelling, where will you be going to next? 
 
I&rsquo;ve always wanted to go to Bali. I&#39;ve made a promise to myself that one day, I will wake up in Bali &ndash; so I&rsquo;m definitely going there next!
