EMM Group, a New York-based hospitality management group, introduces two new restaurants to diners in New York and Miami with The General and Catch Miami. Both were designed by ICrave, a New York-based branding and interior design studio.
The General, located at 199 Bowery, is inspired by urban excavation and features a chic and energetic aesthetic influenced by the restaurant’s Southeast Asian cuisine. Design features include an 80-foot façade with retractable glass garage-door panels opening up to the sidewalk. Cafe patrons can dine casually or move inside towards the bar, designed like a classic bar and clad in deep red enamel.
Following the opening of Catch New York last year, the famed eatery now expands to Miami with a location inside the new James Royal Palm on Collins Avenue in South Beach. The globally influenced seafood restaurant measures 4000 square feet and seats 190 patrons. The landmark, art-deco interior was left mainly intact, with high top cocktail counters and traditional dining tables surrounding an open sushi bar.
