New Priceless Restaurant opening in Tribeca
July 31, 2019, 11:15.55 pm ET
Need an escape? Mastercard's Pricelees at Spring Studios in Tribeca may have the answer. The "immersive, multi-sensory" experience transports diners to extraordinary culinary destinations like The Rock from Zanzibar, Tanzania, Teruzushi from Kitayushu, Japan and Lyaness in London.
The Rock – The Rock is a remarkable restaurant off the coast of Zanzibar, only accessible by foot during low tide and by boat when the tide rises. Here, traditional African hospitality and cuisine with an Italian twist meets awe-inspiring, 360 degree views of the Indian Ocean. Diners will smell the ocean air rich with moss and beech wood, hear the waves and take in the views captured from the original restaurant, while experiencing the same impeccable service.
Lyaness – Famed for its focus on exploration and experimentation, Lyaness comes from the team behind Dandelyan, which was voted World's Best Bar in 2018. Creator Ryan Chetiyawardana applies a chef’s approach to flavor, empowering Lyaness to reinvent the world of cocktails and elevate them to a true art form. The Lyaness at PRICELESS is an exact replica of the original London hot spot, from the green onyx curved bar to the light blue hue that washes the interior, and from Ryan’s masterful surprises to the unexpected ingredients such as the koji.
Teruzushi – Maverick chef Takayoshi Watanabe is known for his talent to redefine the dining experience through exceptional ingredients, innovation and his signature theatrics. Watanabe prepares his dishes with a long 70 cm blade featuring an aggressive curve that significantly affects the texture of the sushi and lends to a theatrical element of showmanship in this “sushi theatre.” Watanabe will temporarily close its doors in Japan to bring his signature style and his exotic blades to this 12-seat culinary theater in the heart of Manhattan.
The Global Market is also hosting an international food experience by Chef JJ Johnson. Read more
