The Next French Laundry?

Chef Joshua Skenes and sommelier Mark Bright launched Saison as a pop-up restaurant in San Francisco's Mission District a few short years ago; it's since skyrocketed to the top of the city's culinary scene and earned two Michelin stars (as well as the priciest-prix-fixe-in-town honor). Last winter, the restaurant reopened in new quarters in the city's SoMA neighborhood, right next to our SF offices; on our way to work, we peeked in. This is what we found:


With 35-foot-high ceilings and just 18 seats, the interiors of the restaurant, located in an 1880s building that once housed the California Electric Light Company, could be cold and foreboding. Instead, the dining spaces feel intimate and inviting (chairs are draped in cashmere throws, in case diners catch a chill); like "a good friend's home," which is what the partners aspired to create. The kitchen and the dining room are one, so diners can observe the chefs fishing lobsters out of a tank, grilling on an open fire, and painstakingly chopping, dicing, slicing, saucing. "We've removed the barriers from the dining experience," the partners say. "Our kitchen is open to all guests, and the seating is one and the same, weaved throughout so we can share the sights, smells, and sounds we love with our guests."


The nightly 18- to 20-course tasting menu costs $248 per person (optional wine pairings are an additional $148), making it San Francisco's most expensive restaurant. Diners are not deterred; you must reserve well in advance for a seat at the table. For more information, go to Saison.


Photos by Alanna Hale via Grub Street, except where noted.



Above: A view of the double-height dining room in the former California Electric Light Company; cashmere throws are draped over the dining chairs. "The experience is designed around the senses," the partners say. "Every material you come in contact with should be a joy to use." The owners worked with a design team that included architects Bassel Samaha and Michael Gibson and interior designer Jiun Ho.

Above: Live-edge walnut tables ("polished by hand to be smooth to the touch," say the owners) and comfortable Danish modern-inspired seating.



Above: The menus are handwritten, an intimate touch. Photo by Allie Pape via SF Eater.



Above: A view of the reception desk (it's on wheels so it can be moved as needed).



Above: A stack of inspirational reading.



Above: The kitchen, which was designed by Tim Harrison of Mill Valley-based Harrison & Koellner (a firm whose portfolio includes work for the French Laundry and Per Se in NYC), opens directly onto the dining area: "There are no boundaries," say the owners.



Above: The owners imported a custom Molteni stove from Italy (it's the only one in SF) and a wood-fired Miwe baking oven from Germany. "Our mission is to blend the art of ancient fire cooking with modern techniques," according to Skenes.



Above: Spices are meticulously hand labeled. Photo by Allie Pape via SF Eater.

A Modern Ski House in the Alps

If the magical wardrobe from The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe were to go modern, it might look something like this holiday retreat in the Italian alpine village of Madesimo.


While alpine conditions are conducive to small and cozy living, Italian architect Enrico Scaramellini's insertion of a finely crafted, narrow wooden box (380 square feet) between two existing farm buildings is so small and cozy, it could actually be mistaken for a wardrobe. And with the omnipresent wintry landscape, who knows? This could be Narnia.


Photography by Marcello Mariana via This Is Paper.

DIY: Rustic Linen Lampshades from Italy

We like this concept: oversized lanterns with rustic raw linen shades, spotted in an Italian interior designed by Orietta Marcon.


The Lampade Bigger by Vicenza-based Orietta Marcon of Oggetti measures about 20 to 24 inches in diameter and is made from hand-finished linen fabric. Interested in something similar as a DIY project? See our sources and instructions below for making a 20-inch-sized lamp.


DIY rustic linen lampshades by Oggetti in Italy


Above: Marcon's installation in an open stairwell. See more of her work at Designer Visit: Civico Quattro in Vicenze.

DIY linen lampshade detail project


Above: Imperfections are welcome; note the slightly lopsided hem.


Rustic linen lampshade by Oggetti in Italy


Above: Detail of the red hem on the Lampade Bigger shown with a painted iron base.


Here's What You'll Need:



Instructions:



  • Cut the length of wire to 60 inches, make a circle by overlapping the ends just a bit and taping them together (you can use electrical, floral, or duct tape for this).

  • From your 2 yards of linen, you'll need about 64 inches: 60 to 61 inches to cover the circumference, and 2 to 3 inches for a healthy seam allowance. Moving slowly around the wire, hand-stitch the fabric until the two ends meet up.

  • Using a sewing machine and the red thread, sew the hem down the side (you can even go with a French seam if you're savvy with sewing), leaving about an inch open at the bottom for a little movement. Then finish the bottom of your fabric with another red hem.

  • Center your pendant cord (Ikea's has instructions for proper centering) and tie your string from the cord through the diameter of the circle, attaching on both sides. Hang the cord from a ceiling hook or as desired.


For more DIY fabric light fixtures, go to Julie's roundup of Camouflage for Unsightly Lights. Also don't miss Izabella's recent DIY: Pendant Lights Made From Drinking Straws (for Less Than $20).

Into the Wild: Faviken Restaurant in Northern Sweden

Six hundred miles north of Stockholm, on a remote hunting estate near Jarpen, Magnus Nilsson mans the kitchens at a restaurant straight out of ancient agrarian times.


"We do things as they have always been done at Jämtland mountain farms," he says. "We follow seasonal variations and our existing traditions." Everything on the 12-course tasting menu at Faviken is made with just-foraged ingredients: local garden produce, locally raised meat, wild game, herbs, and mushrooms from the estate, cheese and other dairy from the surrounding region of Jämtland, and seafood from the neighboring region of Trøndelag, Norway. During the summer, the chefs build up their stores for the dark winter months: "We dry, salt, jelly, pickle, and bottle."


N.B. If you're not planning a trip to the northern edges of Sweden anytime soon, Phaidon has just published Faviken, a cookbook by Nilsson. All photos via Faviken unless otherwise noted.
