Chow Chase, Karlstad – Sweden

In the small town of Karlstad, Sweden, a progressive restaurateur wanted to create a mind-blowing dining experience – a great journey through time, place and taste. With a menu of tapas-sized favourites from all over the world, the ambition was to offer fun dining and total escapism for a broad audience.
The Chow Chase restaurant experience could be described as a night together with Rockefeller, Edith Piaf and Lawrence of Arabia on steroids, served and entertained by Lady Gaga. A Jules Vernesque journey between different food concepts and ambiences that challenge all of your senses. It’s bold, colorful, fun and somewhat eccentric when the big world comes to a small town.
Food and drinks are ordered via a mobile app allowing guests to easily shape and change their experience during the meal. The Chow Chase brand was created along with the design concept to enhance the search for exciting tastes within the restaurant’s different settings. The interior design offers a stylish and contemporary take on New York during the 1920s/30s Art Deco era, a slightly surreal version of Paris and La Belle Époque, and a personal adaption of the exotic Orient.

Polet Café, Moscow – Russia

The interior of the ‘Polet’ restaurant reminds the scenery for a sci-fi movie. The sleek steel shapes and portholes at the entrance make the room look like the cabin of a space shuttle. One of the main principles in the interior of ‘Polyot’ is minimalism. There is a lack of decor to which the audience in Moscow restaurants is so used, no patterns and ornaments on the walls and in design elements. Instead there are large shining objects. Huge silver Martian goddesses like figures are installed on symmetric columns at the entrance. They can be easily placed in the decorations of the Hollywood movie about new civilizations.
High ceilings, lots of air, shiny surfaces, silver curtains, glass and monumental objects like spectacular concrete panel illustrating the takeoff of the aircraft (there was an airfield once on the Khodynka Field), are balanced with the wild greenery that covers the walls of some of the halls, delicate shade of furniture and Sailormoon chairs. The game of colors occurs due to the use of various surfaces – matte or reflective.
The space turned out to be significant, stylish and with a bit of irony. The interior does not press with its seriousness, but on the contrary inspires and gives wings.

Petit Victor Hugo, Paris – France

Institution of the west of Paris, Petit Victor Hugo is the seafood brasserie, with a marine menu designed by chef Sandrine Esteves, that wakes up the 16th arrondissement with freshness.
Closed since the summer 2019, the PVH – for friends – reopened in early October 2021 with a new décor with seventies inspirations, patio, terrace and monumental cocktail bar.
Radiant with colors and patterns, the two-level restaurant seems like out of a movie.
Petit Victor Hugo is an institution: the kind of brasserie that makes Paris famous worldwide.

Fireside, Hong Kong – China

Fireside is a dance between man and fire, and presents the naked complexity of each and every ingredient, demonstrating how every element – from season, soil, to age, feed, and climate – manipulates the ever-changing and dynamic flavour profile of an ingredient.
The kitchen, the first of its kind in Hong Kong, forgoes modern cooking utilities, and only makes use of an open-fire grill fuelled by select varieties of wood and binchotan, to allow Chef Miguel Gallo’s culinary team to execute a bare and raw style of cooking. The preparation methods reflect those before traditions and techniques forged cuisines and allow culinary expression to freely roam.
Resembling a sophisticated smokehouse, Fireside introduces a revitalizing open kitchen concept, featuring the signature Mibrasa Parilla and tailor-made brick oven. Sit adjacent to the warm, flaming embers and enjoy a raw culinary experience echoing an elevated backyard barbecue, or enjoy an intimate meal in our exclusive private dining room, designed for parties of eight.
Alternatively, enjoy a breezier al-fresco dining experience on the balcony with aerial views of the city below.

Palace Garden, at Grand Lisboa Palace – Macau

A contemporary tribute to the resplendent Chinoiserie period of China’s trade history, Palace Garden provides opulent destination dining in an evocative setting that celebrates the splendour of an imperial garden. As you enter the main dining room of the resort’s flagship restaurant, you are greeted by entrancing touches such as traditional Suzhou embroidery showcased in a bespoke, 35-metre-long mural of chrysanthemums and an installation of custom-made, double-sided embroidery fans. This extraordinary expression of colours, culture and craftsmanship is further manifested in five individually themed private dining rooms and the Li Bai Bar, the restaurant’s signature bar, where you can enjoy an immersive art experience by artist Yang Yong Liang that blends spectacular night views of Macau and Hong Kong with a modern cityscape ink painting displayed in large digital walls.
Amid this exquisite and regal ambience, you can savour exceptional, authentic Cantonese cuisine, prepared by a Michelin-starred chef using the finest ingredients and masterful culinary techniques.
