The Catbird Seat - Nashville
A legend of the Nashville dining scene, The Catbird Seat has been shaping American gastronomy since 2011, earning global attention when Anthony Bourdain sang its praises on Parts Unknown. Now in its sixth iteration, Tiffani Ortiz and Andy Doubrava bring a closed-loop, produce-first ethos, crafting dishes like 'Cured tilefish, matsutake, buttermilk, mushroom XO.'
Gorka - London
Basque for ‘George’, Gorka is the fire-fuelled passion project of George Husband (Brat, Trinity) and George Brown (Café Cecilia, Camberwell Arms). Their sell-out residencies serve up a thrilling mash-up of French, Italian, and Basque flavours. Expect bold, genre-bending plates like ‘BBQ veal belly, oyster, chilli’ and ‘Cajun ‘quenelles de brochet’, andouille sausage’.
Goldfinch - Copenhagen
Goldfinch is the buzzing Cantonese kitchen from Will King-Smith (Geranium***, Mielcke & Hurtigkarl), bringing high-quality, ethically sourced Chinese food to Copenhagen. For his London residency, expect bold flavours and precise technique in dishes like 'Scallop toast with sesame & coriander chilli oil,' 'Shrimp & pork wontons, sweetened bean paste,' and 'Bao, boudin noir, sweetened soy'.
Dizyngoff - Odessa
Nika Lozovska is part of a new generation of Ukrainian chefs redefining the country’s food culture with Dizyngoff, a contemporary, hyper-seasonal Ukrainian restaurant inspired by the port city’s rich culinary traditions. Her Black-Sea inspired dishes like 'Sea bass tartare, fermented fennel, sorrel' and 'Lemon sole, cauliflower tortilla, smoked cheese, tahini' are a love letter to the flavours of home.
