Restaurants are still opening left and right! I was happy to hear that Chef Maj Lazatin has opened one!! Her proud sister, Rewa, told me about it and we met up so I could see the place. It’s a bar/resto called the Glass Door
The glass door of the The Glass Door 🙂
Here they are 🙂 The beautiful Lazatin sisters. They are actually three so we are missing the youngest one. Rewa told me that her Dad made it a rule that if any of them invests in a business, they will have to be partners with the minority splitting 30% and the main owner at 70% ownership. That way they will have to work with each other and support each other. I told Rewa that they are lucky they can do business together because it’s not the same with others. Which makes me admire them more because they are all so close
Nice interiors
I am always checking out the uniforms of the staff 🙂
Chef Maj studied in Apicius Florence for a year in 2005 and then in 2011 interned with chef Julian Serrano, a two star Michelin chef, in Picasso at the Bellagio for 6 months. Then she moved to a tapas bar in Aria Hotel of Chef Julian Serrano and worked for 3 months with Chef Picasso. Which explains the tapas and sangria in the Glass Door
The food at Glass Door is a mixture of all the dishes Chef Maj does well. And don’t be intimidated by the posh interiors, because the food is very reasonable. In fact Chef Maj gets a lot of private functions especially in the evening
Super yum Salmon Tartare
Tartufo pasta
Chef Maj really started out with catering and party platters but according to her, her sister, Rewa in particular :-), made her work and open a restaurant 🙂 But she’s so talented. Maj can do catering and Rewa brags about her tapas so she can do a tapa night or cocktails at your place or event or you can order from her Thai party platters
