restaurants for event planners . my jaw-dropping top 7

It was difficult to narrow down the world’s most beautiful restaurants to my top 7…but I did it. There are just so many worthy contenders out there. To me, an event planner-worthy restaurant must have a totally unique experience to provide its guests, innovative design and a big punch of drama. Each of my favorites below accomplish all three criteria and then some. I will admit that the venue I now have on my must-visit-before-I-expire list is Piz Gloria in Switzerland. Being able to say that you dined with 360 degree views of one of the most beautiful mountain ranges in the world is true bragging rights. But the remaining 6 restaurants are very close runner ups.

1. Beijing Noodle No. 9, Las Vegas, NV, United States

I’ll be taking a trip to Las Vegas in the next few weeks and you can be sure I’ll be stopping by this restaurant. I found the design so etherial. This is a true statement restaurant.

2. Piz Gloria, Bernese Oberland, Switzerland

Need I say anything? This restaurant could serve cardboard wrapped styrofoam hamburgers for all I care. The breathtaking beauty of the view says it all.

3. Bei, Beijing, China

I picked this one in large part because of my obsession with pink. The design is sleek, but it’s the color combinations that had me swooning. Note to self: pink, black & gold = hot, hot, hot.

4. Hoto Fudo, Mount Fuji, Japan

Another restaurant that is a must-see for me. Dining in an open air restaurant at the foot of Mount Fuji is a dream I didn’t know I had until I saw this venue.

5. Robert Restaurant, New York, NY, United States

Such a cool, new space that has just launched in New York. I quite liked the unconventional seating groupings.

6. Sliver Restaurant (not yet open)

I love the design of this restaurant space.

7. Germain, Paris, France

Paris is one of my favourite places on Earth. And Germain is one restaurant that I won’t miss the next time I’m in town. Beautiful and unexpected architecture give this venue a checkmark for me.

So, I’d love to hear from you. Are you an event planner? What do you think of the restaurants on this list? Which restaurants would you add?
