It was Paris in New York. Within a bronze dome nestled on the corner of the infamous NoMad hotel rooftop, 10 guests including myself enjoyed an evening of French cuisine with a 360° view of the New York skyline. The Cupola, a 1903 French Renaissance boîte located in New York’s garment district, is a Beaux-Arts showstopper. In this intimate alcove, we were treated to a 6-course Provençal-inspired gustatory feast crafted by NoMad Hotel Restaurant‘s own Chef Daniel Humm, the culinary mastermind behind Eleven Madison Park.
Inside the Cupola, it was Midnight in Paris. The moody midnight blue walls shifted its shading as the sun set behind Manhattan skyline. A tasteful arrangement of white roses and lilies sat center of a round mahogany table, surrounded by countless wine and champagne glasses. Each glass lustrously reflected the soft tea lights and lambent
glow of a singular brass chandelier. Under the ambient gaze of the Empire State Building, we used up all the glasses one by one, each thoughtfully paired with Laurent-Perrier champagne for each course. It was a magical evening, filled with conviviality and romance. We had all forgotten that it was only a Thursday.

Beautiful architecture and exquisite cuisine anchor her day-to-day living. She designed her own Manhattan office to look and feel like a boutique Parisian hotel, a constant source of inspiration for her event design.
