The Michelin-starred Chef Gabriel Kreuther
opened the doors to his eponymous restaurant
back in 2015, right in Manhattan’s verdant Bryant
Park. This astonishing dining venue features a
distinctly New York essence which was inspired by
the heritage and years of experience in some of the
world’s best kitchens, and already, the restaurant
has been distinguished with three stars from the
New York Times as well as a Michelin star, three
years in a row.
As soon as you enter the restaurant, you are grace
by a glamorous dining room set with a distinctive
curved platinum-coloured ceiling and plenty
of seating areas with green and copper accents
throughout. An illuminated glass panel, crystal
artwork, sketched wall coverings and a series of
vintage wooden beams are a few design elements
that dress up this phenomenal restaurant, giving
it an extremely contemporary touch. The Bar is
decorated with forest green tiles mounted in the
style of Alsace’s traditional wood-fired ovens.
In between the lounge and main dining room,
guests can be marvelled by lighting pieces inspired
by the cathedral lamps of Strasbourg’s town
squares. The main dining room is completed with
hand-painted ceilings that have a flock of forty-
two crystal birds suspended over its centre. The
restaurant also features a New York accent through
original artwork made by some of the best local
artists, resulting in an even more refined and chic
environment.
