"Mediterranean, Asian, and South American culinary techniques are the centerpiece of Duchess Uptown Park, the newest addition to the bustling shopping district. Shaped by chef Omar Pereney in collaboration with owners Peggy and Daniel Chang and Roveen Abante, the menu features the prized seafood and coastal cooking of each region, largely prepared over a wood-fired grill in the restaurant’s kitchen. Posh emerald green and cobalt blue booths envelop diners as they embark on a coastal dining journey. For dessert, do share with someone special the Duchess Rose, a rose-shaped pastry of white chocolate mousse, white chocolate feuilletine, strawberry compote, elderflower foam, and micro basil leaves — perhaps one of the most delicate dessert presentations in town." - Brittany Britto Garley, Kayla Stewart
