Located Queen West west west, somewhere between trendy and trying too hard, there is a new hot spot driving the fashion masses to point of frustration. Nyood, the latest installation from the restauranteur that brought us such culinary couture hot spots like Blowfish and Kultura has the FF crowd selling their shirts just to get in.
Birthday suit optional and draped in and industrial ambiance, Nyood sets the mood for a dining experience like no other. Dressed to the nine and half we feasted on tappas style entrees that packed a punch and left us begging for more.
With the question of location more than filled, the fashion minded man left the most important question for last. Our crew, decked out in layers of black sipped on champagne and floated around the signature table working this years hottest trends. From spring Prada and Lanvin to classic Hermes luxury the FF boys turned heads and even had fellow feasters asking " where are you guys from?"
As hot spots come and go, and trends come in and out it is important to remember that when is comes to hitting the "IT" spot it is better to add than subtract. With a meal ticket price tag that rivals a designer dig, why not spend ten minutes putting something together.
The key to a great hotspot outfit is choosing a centerpiece. I find the best way to focus an outfit is to have one item on which the outfit is born. Based on your personal style and level of daring it can be as simple as a micro-patterned pocket square, or contrasting bow-tie. With the spring and fall collections demanding a return to layered dress try playing with volume contrast in your layers and for heavens sake do not be afraid of color.
As we travel west wester and hike all the way east in search of new haunts be sure to ask yourself "If I am spending 45 minutes in a cab just to get somewhere, shouldn't I at least spend the same getting ready."And if traveling to Nyood don't let its name fool you quite the contrary is expected.- Enjoy!!!
