Adding creativity, elegance, playfulness, and sensuality to traditional Italian cuisine, Gucci Osteria da Massimo Bottura has opened in Tokyo. <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The third Gucci Osteria globally and the first in Japan, the new Tokyo eatery is located on the top of the Gucci Namiki flagship store in Ginza. Catering to just 48 guests in the main dining room and 12 on its intimate terrace, the new restaurant will serve lunch, dinner, and Italian aperitivo<\/em>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The new restaurant’s menus<\/a> have been developed by internationally acclaimed chef Massimo Bottura (owner of three Michelin-starred Osteria Francescana, voted The World\u2019s Best Restaurant in 2016 and 2018), Karime Lopez, head chef of Gucci Osteria in Florence, Italy (awarded its first star in the Michelin Guide Italy 2020), and head chef Antonio Iacoviello, who will helm the new venue. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The \u00e0 la carte menu will include Gucci Osteria signature dishes such as the legendary Emilia burger and Tortellini with Parmigiano Reggiano cream. There will also be creative takes on Italian-centred dishes and new seasonal Japanese-inspired creations. These will include Parmigiana Ramen and Milanese Wagyu.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Diners will be able to match their meals with a selection of over 350 wine labels as well as signature cockails, while the new Gucci Osteria will also serve champagne and light bites on the terrace during a traditional Italian aperitivo from 4-6 pm daily. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The carefully curated interiors at Gucci Osteria Tokyo take inspiration from the original Florence outpost, with references to the Italian Renaissance and the eclectic mix of aesthetics embraced by Gucci. At the private lift entrance on the ground floor, a mysterious enfilade sets the tone for the upstairs. Gucci D\u00e9cor\u2019s Tian<\/em> wallpaper enriches the trellis woodworks, resembling the dream-like atmosphere of winter gardens. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Once inside, a vibrant green palette defines the spaces through each room, where rich peacock velvet banquettes complement the pea-green panelling, marble dining tables, wicker chairs, and the Gucci D\u00e9cor tableware.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Unique elements that distinguish the Gucci Osteria Tokyo include its wood flooring, hand-painted with a pattern inspired by antiques collected by Creative Director Alessandro Michele. The recurring symbolism of the star appears both in the ceiling lights of the hall leading to the main room as well as in the mosaic floor on the terrace, adorned with traditional Japanese plants. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Adding<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

In addition, hidden behind patio doors, is an ornate private dining room named Room of Mirrors<\/em>, which hosts up to eight guests, where antique European mirrors, ebonized boiserie, and the Radura <\/em>wallpaper from the Gucci D\u00e9cor collection provide a truly intimate and exclusive dining experience. The exterior glass fa\u00e7ade of the entrance facing Namiki-dori street is designed to allow a fluid perspective \u2013 offering a view of the linden trees on the roadside, the symbol of Namiki-dori Street.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
