Wharehouse District

unusual fine-dining experience

It is in the fashionable district of North Loop, Minneapolis, that chef Gavin Kaysen chose to settle after years working alongside famous French chef Daniel Boulud, at Café Boulud in New York. Housed in a former coffee warehouse, designed in the 19th century by architect William Channing Whitney, Demi is as accomplished as it is discreet. Here, chef Kaysen has curated a culinary experience designed to appeal to a demanding clientele that wants to combine highly original cooking with relaxed conviviality. He has deliberately broken with the codes of traditional gastronomy: twenty guests sit at a U-shaped counter, surrounding the kitchen team as it prepares menus of 7 or 11 dishes–depending on the evening. Accompanying wines are chosen on the basis of their capacity to surprise. While each sitting may begin with a humble bowl of broth, it will evolve to become a feast of flavor and an emotional, visually rich experience to boot. An astonishing piece of dining theater.
