Vesper's brunch, Tokyo Morning: unlimited Veuve Clicquot champagne, fusion Benedict eggs (salmon-avocado or mushroom), miso-roasted cockerel. Paris meets Tokyo without forcing it. The kind of place where you settle in for the long haul, champagne in hand.

Fiona Matteï takes over Vesper for one evening. On the menu: Vesper's contemporary Japanese cuisine, signature cocktails, and private readings. Between starter and dessert, Fiona reads what you don't say. No props, no theatrics.
