The restaurant is located inside a new condo tower by architect Norman Foster in Midtown East. It resulted from the combination of Michelin-grade chef Alain Verzeroli and Dirand who decided to team up in order to open this gastronomy project.

Renowned French architect Joseph Dirand is behind the look of the bespoke light-filled space that looks and feels like walking into a garden. The main feature that immediately comes to sight is its abundance of green, varying from mint tones in the marble walls and floors to the mossy-hued velvet chairs.

All in all the decor feel like a lush greenhouse thanks to leafy plants that line the floor-to-ceiling windows. While having your meal within this establishment you can find some of the most diverse types of palm trees, which give this luxury space a more nature/garden-like feel to it.

There are also bespoke details, among them the green marble, which stretches stringently through the light-flooded room to a monumental staircase made of the same material. Through the staircase, you can check out “Shun”, another restaurant of the star chef with French-Japanese cuisine and bar.
