Wakiya by Andrea Strong

Wakiya has opened at the Gramercy Park Hotel. The restaurant is an Ian Schrager production, which came about when things didn’t work out so well with Hakkasan’s Alan Yau. It is run by the Nobu Management team—Richie Notar, Meir Tepper, and Robert De Niro (not the Drew Nieporent Myriad team), and features the cooking of chef Yuji Wakiya, of Wakiya, Roppongi, Turandot and Akasaka in Japan, who came highly recommended to Schrager by Nobu Matsuhisa. more
