Chefs Diego Diego Muoz and John Fraser's Popular restaurant is located inside hotelier Ian Schrager's Public hotel, where food is competitive with the area's thriving nightlife and fashion scene. Chef Diego Munoz, who oversaw the #1 rated Latin American restaurant, Astrid y Gaston, in Lima, offers customers a unique opportunity to sample authentic, unique, nutritious, and globally influenced Peruvian cuisine at Popular. Chef Diego, a rare talent, brings the best of his Peruvian homeland's multicultural cuisine to New York City, the ultimate international gateway. His cuisine is a microcosm of some of the world's greatest culinary traditions, including incan, Spanish, Moorish, African, Italian, Chinese, and Japanese.
A former student of the renowned Astrid y Gastón, Munoz is in charge of the kitchen where he displays his mastery of Peruvian cuisine. Dishes like duck leg fried rice and the traditional Lomo saltado, which features filet mignon with a chile-soy sauce, show a variety of influences, from the Incan to the Japanese. Additionally, reservations can be made for the chef's table.
