The Lucky Cat restaurant is a new dining establishment in central London that operates under the name of celebrity chef Gordon Ramsey. The menu is contemporary, offering Asian-inspired small plates and sushi. Aside from its expertly crafted cuisine and its obvious ties to stardom, the Lucky Cat restaurant sets itself apart with another main feature — its interior design and ambiance.
Unlike many businesses that take on a vibrantly uplifting aesthetic to capture the attention of consumers, Lucky Cat seeks to defy it with "an array of moody tones" and a dim-lit atmosphere that makes it close to impossible to take a bubbly photo of one's food. The interior of the restaurant was proudly curated by London-based design studio AfroditiKrassa who looked to be "subtle and classic, not too shouty."
