Nurdin Topman, former chef at Michelin stars restaurant Noma and Le Manoir, open up his brand new gastronomic restaurant "NUR". With highly respectable reputation for his insight in nutrition and molecular cooking skill, NUR has become the highly anticipated dining venture in Hong Kong. Unlike most of the restaurant, nutrition value are the core idea behind NUR and Nurdin's culinary art. With an adamant belief that every ingredient's flavour and nutrition should be utilise to maximal, so that customers can distinguish every flavour and texture from different ingredients. Based on Nurdin's belief, J. Candice Interior Architects create a solution for his restaurant that matches his criteria. A 900 sq ft editable garden with an aim to sufficiently self supplied on self-grown ingredients and herbs,the idea is to create a "sky garden" in the city. While Nurdin collaborates with local farmers and food suppliers to ensure his ingredients are at their freshest condition when arrived to the restaurant. In long terms,both ideas established supplies for fresh ingredients in a cost effective way, at the same time reducing carbon foot print created by long distance transportation for the supplies. Beside green ideas, the design for NUR is noticeable for its sophisticated contemporary design inspired by laboratory theme. From the jar of fermented ingredient to glass beakers and jars, each elements are custom design to reflect the spirit of gastronomy. The tone inside the restaurant is generally light grey and white with occasion use of steel and iron. Combinations of natural grey wood floor with white wall compliment with the natural greens and herbs , create a truly unique and inspiring venues.
