A ‘Peruvian-Japanese’ restaurant will cap off the new St Michael’s building, being built by former United legend Gary Neville. Chotto Matte will take the 20,000 sq ft space for its new restaurant space.
Founder Kurt Zdesa, formerly of the upscale Nobu and Hakkasan chains, already has Chotto Matte restaurants in Miami and Toronto, and this will be the second in the UK outside London. Other branches are set to open in Doha, San Francisco and Los Angeles later this year.
The cuisine is called Nikkei, and combines Peruvian and Japanese influences. It will open in the summer of 2024, and will feature ‘open sushi counters, robata grills, table side torched sushi, lava stone and graffiti inspired artwork’.
