RESTAURANT AGERN

"PEOPLE SAY IT IS AN ELEGANT YET WELCOMING SPACE - IT IS LIKE AN OASIS AT GRAND CENTRAL"

Claus: "My name is Claus Meyer. I am an entrepreneur and I work within food. I am ready to take on most projects that have a relationship to food, whatever the food is the weapon or the instruments. For me deliciousness is not an end only it is also a means to achieve something larger than that."

Christina: "I am Christina Meyer Bengtsson, I work as a graphic designer and interior designer primarily in Copenhagen, right now I am based in New York because I have been involved in this big project of doing a food Hall in Grand Central and a restaurant Agern in Grand Central as well for the las few years together with colleagues - Ulrik Nordentoft and graphic designer Søren Waming."    

Claus: "The idea was to try to bring to the middle of New York some of the flavors and ideas that kind of constituted the new Nordic cuisine. My dream was to come over here to create a food hall around some of the most iconic Danish dishes, instead of just rolling the past and part from the modern era of the Nordic cuisine."
