Intimate yet vibrant, the club transforms throughout the day-from chef-driven lunches and refined dinners to late-night revelry-always balancing understated luxury with a distinctly contemporary edge. Our culinary identity reflects this vision: progressive Asian cuisine that marries fine dining precision with timeless comfort, crafted with nuance, seasonality, and surprise. Each dish is designed not only to delight but also to harmonize with a curated wine and beverage program, creating moments that are both memorable and elevated.

Create, implement, and enforce systems that ensure culinary excellence, efficiency, and cost control-maximizing profitability without compromising on taste or guest experience. Curate seasonal menus and maintain recipe integrity, plating standards, and product sourcing with a focus on premium Asian ingredients (wagyu, uni, abalone, truffles, aged soy, specialty spices). Drive collaboration between Front of House and Back of House teams, ensuring synergy and seamless service. Partner with Marketing/Events to design special menus, holiday experiences, and culturally aligned culinary programming. Ensure proper storage, inventory control, food costing, equipment maintenance, sanitation, and hygiene at all times.
