bad bunny has not only positioned itself as one of the artists most listened to of the moment after the launch of his new album, 'A summer without you': he has starred in campaign spring-summer 2022 Jacquemus , is about to embark on 'Bad Bunny World's Hottest Tour' -a tour that will take him to Los Angeles, Lima and Medellin, among other cities- and has just announced a surprising collaboration with David Grutman which will materialize in Miami.
gekko , the Puerto Rican artist's new restaurant , has just relieved his idiosyncrasy of japanese steak house , while he promises to be enveloped by the innovative approach of David Grutman , owner of Groot Hospitality and a member of several restaurants and nightclubs based in Miami.
In fact, it is not surprising his culinary alliance with bad bunny , since he had previously been associated with the artist Pharrell Williams to open the Swan restaurants, Strawberry Moon and The Goodtime hotel.
Bad Bunny & Dave Grutman will open Gekkō in Miami.
So, in order to convert to gekko in an epicenter of entertainment and hospitality, they have decided to bring design firm on board Rockwell Group , who will lead the concept of gekko design.
What will the aesthetics of the bad bunny restaurant ? Luxurious hues will co-exist with an unmistakably contemporary touch of graphic coatings. Bright tones, golden light and natural wood accents complete the place.
“gekko , which means 'moonlight', will create your menu around top quality cuts and preparations of Wagyu beef (with hints of Korean barbecue), and an emphasis on tabletop presentations, including meat cut dishes sealed to the flame”, they point out in a statement.
Popular dishes inspired by Japanese cuisine will constitute another of the great protagonists, as well as a complete sushi program, which includes a bar Omakase for 6 people.
With a capacity to 185 diners , the restaurant is located in the SLS Lux Brickell ground floor , in South Miami Avenue , and plans to open its doors at the end of July of this year.
