Ikigai Restaurant

Designed and created by chef James Noble out of a need to eat better and communicate well, Ikigai Restaurant’s ‘Long Lunch’ is a recurring dining project aimed at getting people to enjoy blue zone food around a table once again. Buffet prices will get you a seat and an unlimited service of creative, seasonal dishes designed using the qualities of the world’s five blue zones – Japan, Italy, Greece, Costa Rica and California. Completely curated and customised for the diner, just tell the chef what you can eat and food will keep coming until you can’t eat anymore. Every weekend is a different lineup of dishes, and you can stay for as long as you like, with many still dining and chatting at sundown.  Aug 9 and every Saturday. B900 per person, no corkage fee. Reservations here. Ikigai Restaurant. Midday onwards.
