I first met Kengo Kuma in 2006 when I launched Z58, a stunning building he designed in Shanghai. We have kept in touch and one of the highlights of my last trip to Tokyo Design Week was dinner in a beautiful Sushi restaurant with Mr Kuma and my colleague Amy. I was reminded of that amazing dinner, when this week we went to dinner at Alan Yau’s latest restaurant Sake No Hana, in honour of Mr Kuma who designed the space. On entering the space, you are transported to a pristine Japanese ryokan. The whole space was very Japanese and it is great to have a Kengo Kuma designed space for London to enjoy.
