Next (restaurant)
Introduction[edit | edit source]
Next (restaurant) is a renowned culinary establishment located in Chicago, Illinois. The restaurant is known for its innovative approach to dining, offering a unique experience that changes every few months.
History[edit | edit source]
Next was established in 2011 by Grant Achatz and Nick Kokonas, who are also the creators of the acclaimed Alinea. The restaurant has received numerous awards and accolades, including a Michelin star in its first year of operation.
Concept[edit | edit source]
The concept of Next is unique in the restaurant industry. Unlike traditional restaurants that maintain a consistent menu, Next completely changes its theme and menu every four months. Past themes have included "Paris 1906," "Tour of Thailand," and "The Hunt." Each theme offers a completely different dining experience, from the food and drink to the decor and music.
Tickets[edit | edit source]
Next operates on a ticket system, similar to a theater or concert. Instead of making a reservation and paying at the end of the meal, guests purchase tickets in advance which include the price of the meal, tax, and tip. The price of tickets varies depending on the theme and the time of dining.
Cuisine[edit | edit source]
The cuisine at Next is as varied as its themes. The chefs at Next strive to create dishes that are authentic to the theme, using ingredients and techniques that are representative of the time period or region. This can range from classic French cuisine during the "Paris 1906" theme to exotic ingredients and flavors during the "Tour of Thailand."
Reception[edit | edit source]
Next has been well received by critics and diners alike. It has been praised for its innovative concept, exceptional food, and unique dining experience. The restaurant has also been recognized with numerous awards, including a Michelin star and multiple James Beard Awards.
