Eater x Hennesy Omakase Pop Up Dinner

For us, food and beverage are the most perfect way to get people together. And the more unique, the more immersive and the more tasty that food and beverage is — all the more chance that your event will be talked about long after the lights go up. When we partnered with the creative team at Eater to create a pop-up restaurant in one of their production spaces, we got to bring all of our culinary knowledge into one space. Sponsored by Hennessy and hosting 2 different Omakase masters over the course of 3 nights, we needed to create an atmosphere for a small group of very lucky strangers to expand their palettes and their minds. We started with custom-designing a pergola structure that fit the space perfectly. From there, we partnered with our build teams to add rice paper panels and a u-shaped bar-height dining table that gave everybody a front-row seat to the showmanship of our chefs. From there, custom wood-signage, a plant layer, printed fabric entrances and a stellar bar menu curated by Hennessy left no hosting stone unturned. Truly, one of the most rewarding activations of our careers. Our Role: Creative Direction, Production Design, Floral Design, Catering and Beverage Management, Graphic Design, Custom Builds
