Hotel Mela announces the opening of Saju, an eclectic culinary experience featuring exotic “haute Vietnamese cuisine” in an enchanting and sophisticated atmosphere. Saju’s menu includes enticing delicacies created by Chef Hung Nguyen from the finest in fresh ingredients in a warm and seductive, Asian-inspired setting that blends city chic with “colonial Vietnam.” The restaurant, which seats 110 guests, is open daily for breakfast, lunch and dinner, and features a full-service bar offering several signature cocktails created with unique flavors such as ginger and lemongrass. Created by restaurateur Philippe Bernard, co-owner of the widely acclaimed Osteria al Doge, the restaurant was designed by Pierre Hitier to transport guests to an exotic oasis in the middle of Times Square. Accented in orange, yellow and green, the space features chic teak floors, an imported bamboo ceiling and stunning details including exposed brick walls that create an alluring setting. Saju compliments Hotel Mela’s modern, sophisticated and elegant style with its sleek design, swank decor and cosmopolitan ambiance.
