Nobu Hospitality is expanding to the North West of England with the UK's first-ever Nobu Residences.
The development is set to transform Manchester with the introduction of Nobu Hotel Manchester, restaurant and luxury apartments, all housed in 76-story tower building—the tallest outside London, which will stand at 807 feet and tower over the famed Deansgate Square South Tower.
Partnering with Salboy, the £360 million ($466.5 million) development will feature 160 hotel rooms, sophisticated event spaces and a signature Nobu restaurant and bar, each reflecting the brand's signature minimalist design. In addition, 452 Nobu residences will mark the brand's launch into the UK's luxury real estate market.
'We are proud to include Manchester in our global collection, with its vibrant culture and growing global status. Strong partnerships are essential to our success, and with Salboy, Fred Done, and Simon Ismail, we have the best-in-class partners with a solid reputation and a world-renowned vision,' said Trevor Horwell, CEO of Nobu Hospitality. 'Having grown up in the area, I am personally immensely proud of this project in a city that continues its evolution as a global destination for luxury hospitality. Manchester is home to world-class developments, a thriving culinary scene, and a growing demand for high-end lifestyle experiences. None of our locations are cookie cutter; we wholeheartedly embrace the spirit of each destination. We are delighted to be working with Salboy to blend the Nobu experience with the essence of Manchester.'
The much-anticipated development will allow the city's residents to live the Nobu lifestyle. Luxury apartments are set to feature refined design with thoughtful Japanese details, premium amenities—including Nobu dining and room service—an exclusive swimming pool, spa, podium garden and gym, as well as unparalleled access to the bustling city through a dedicated experience concierge team.
In the restaurant, guests will experience Chef Nobu's world-renowned cuisine that has 'influenced dining across the globe,' according to Fred Done, Co-founder of Salboy & Betfred.
"This [$466.5 million] deal for Nobu Manchester will take the city to new heights in terms of service, cuisine, and experience,' he continued. 'As the original innovator in fine dining, Chef Nobu popularized a blend of cuisines in exciting new ways, leaving a lasting influence on every modern restaurant you see today.'
Nobu Hospitality opened its first hotel, Nobu Hotel Las Vegas, inside Caesars Palace in 2013. Since then, the brand has launched over 35 hotels. In 2023, its first residence opened in Los Cabos.

A Whopping 20 New Seattle Restaurant Openings You Should Know About
Here's a list of notable openings we've clocked in the Seattle area in the last month. If we missed something, please email us: seattle@ . CAPITOL HILL — Capitol Hill Seattle Blog reports that the former Regent Bakery and Cafe space on 14th and Pine Street is now a Japanese hot pot joint called Raku Shabu Shabu, which is still in its soft opening phase. SOUTH LAKE UNION — We've been hyping up La Loba for a little while now — this new Spanish restaurant from Vegas-based chef Oscar Amador inside the 1 Hotel has more style than most hotel restaurants and has a menu laden with all sorts of fun stuff, like wood-fired dishes, tableside tartar, and extravagant seafood platters. PIONEER SQUARE — Speaking of swanky hotels, Populus just opened with a pair of food and drink 'concepts,' as they say in the biz: Firn, which is Pioneer Square's first rooftop bar, plus a below-roof restaurant called Salt Harvest. CAPITOL HILL — And speaking of rooftop bars, Capitol Hill has a new one called Cantina Del Sol, which is the first of several bars and restaurants that the Pike Street Hospitality Group plans to put inside the former Mercado Luna building at the corner of Pine Street and Summit Avenue. MADRONA — You don't get a lot of new barbecue restaurants in Seattle, but caterer Richard's Too Good BBQ just opened a brick-and-mortar location on 34th Avenue. It's serving classic barbecue dishes and Southern-style sides like corn bread and collard greens. As a bonus, the whole menu is gluten-free. CHINATOWN–INTERNATIONAL DISTRICT — A new restaurant called International Lobster Rolls is 'serving fresh specialty lobster rolls inspired by Southeast Asian, Korean, Hong Kong, Vietnamese flavors and more,' according to its Instagram. It also has sides like garlic fries and lobster bisque. CAPITOL HILL — Maybe the next new hot Vietnamese coffee shop just opened on Pine. Called Phe, it specializes in phin-brewed coffee (topped with things like honeycomb toffee) and matcha. Expect a crowd during this soft-opening phase — according to Phe's Instagram, it's been so popular it ran out of matcha last week. KENMORE — Industry vets Cody and Andrea Westerfield have turned their pop-up De La Soil into a permanent restaurant inside Copperworks Distilling's Kenmore location. It's serving seasonal fare mostly sourced mostly from one farm, the nearby Tuk Muk. There's also a kids menu. GREENWOOD — What might be Seattle's only drive-thru pizzeria just opened — BoBu serves a simple menu of square pizza slices, sandwiches, and pretzels out of a shack on Northwest 85th Street and Eighth Avenue. FREMONT — Livbud, the vegetarian-friendly all-day cafe on Stone Way, has been converted by owner Heavy Restaurant Group into a new spot called Hushy's. It's serving freshly baked focaccia sandwiches, plus salads, sides, drinks, and (in the near future) soft serve. CENTRAL DISTRICT — Temple Pastries owner Christina Wood has gotten into pizza, opening a new restaurant in the Temple space called Sacro Bosco. It specializes in Roman-style rectangular pizza and will also be serving aperitivo, Italian wine and cocktails, and some desserts including tiramisu and olive oil cake. For now, it's dine-in only. BALLARD — Long-running Thai restaurant Thai Siam reopened after owner Vhanthip 'Nancy' Bhokayasupatt managed to get enough money to buy the building, keeping a neighborhood institution in place. FIRST HILL — After starting out in the kitchen of a Tacoma Holiday Inn, a budding chain called Secret Burger Kitchen has opened a Seattle location at the sleepy south end of Broadway. It serves smashburgers, fries, and more smashburgers, with a whole section of the menu devoted to spicy, chile-laden burgers and fries. DOWNTOWN — Taz Matcha Cafe & Bar is now open on Stewart Street near Fourth Avenue. Well, at least the cafe part is. It's serving 'ceremonial-grade' matcha along with pastries and small bites until 2 p.m., and the evening bar part of the business will open soon. MADRONA — Another interesting cafe — this one drawing on Filipino and Korean influences — has opened on 34th Street. Called Yoka Tea, it has matcha, boba tea, and some croffles. WHITE CENTER — Popular food truck Whateke has taken over the former Que Chevere space, which is now Whateke Sports Bar. It'll be serving the Mexican food Whateke is known for and some new items like ceviche. There will also be space for all-ages family dining, reports White Center Now. AURORA — Top Dead Center, a motorcycle-inspired cafe, just opened on Aurora near 77th Street. It's serving coffee (both Vietnamese phin-brewed stuff and espresso) and a selection of Spanish- and Portuguese-inspired food, like tinned fish, egg tarts, and sandwiches. PIONEER SQUARE — Famed local ice cream chain Molly Moon's has opened its 10th scoop shop, this one in a picturesque former boat launch down by Pioneer Square, part of a long-running effort to revive the downtown waterfront. CHINATOWN–INTERNATIONAL DISTRICT — A new poke restaurant called Pokerrito Ya just opened on King Street. It's billing itself as 'Japanese–Hawaiian fusion' and serving poke in bowls as well as in burritos. CAPITOL HILL — A year after opening its first Seattle location in the University District, student-centric cookie delivery chain Insomnia now has a second location, this one on Broadway between Pike and Pine. BELLEVUE — Finally, a new bar called Valentina's Wine Bar just opened on Bellevue's Main Street. It will serve flatbreads and charcuterie in addition to wine, and it's owned by the same people behind a wine bar in the oceanside town of Seabrook. Sign up for our newsletter.

Nakama Japanese Steakhouse closes doors after 20 years on South Side
South Side restaurant Nakama Japanese Steakhouse and Sushi has quietly closed its doors. The hibachi-teppanyaki restaurant has ceased offering its dining services, stopped taking reservations online for further meals, and its phone is no longer operational. Representatives for Nakama did not respond to multiple attempts to contact the business to give a reason for the quiet closing. A longstanding South Side sensation, Nakama blended entertainment and eating, receiving widespread acclaim from local news outlets and food critics. The restaurant offered a sushi bar, standard bar and hibachi tables where chefs would cook directly in front of guests. Nakama first opened in 2003, one of the earliest tableside Japanese steakhouses to open in the area before the trend would expand rapidly over the next decade. The restaurant also operated a location in Wexford, which closed last summer, as well as a food truck. It's unclear if the food truck is still in operation.

Toyota Group initiates privatisation of Toyota Industries
Toyota Group has launched a series of transactions to privatise Toyota Industries Corporation through a tender offer for its shares and related restructuring moves. A new holding company will be established to facilitate this process, the Japanese conglomerate said in a press statement. Toyota Fudosan, a company held by Toyota Group entities, will invest approximately Y180bn to foster collaboration within the group. Akio Toyoda, Toyota's chairman, will contribute Y1bn. Additionally, Toyota Motor will invest around Y700bn in non-voting preferred shares. These investments will be funded by reinvesting proceeds from the sale of Toyota Industries shares held by Toyota Fudosan, Akio Toyoda and Toyota Motor since the company's listing. As part of the transactions, Toyota Motor, AISIN, Denso and Toyota Tsusho will sell their Toyota Industries shares while acquiring their own shares held by Toyota Industries through tender offers for treasury stock. This move will dissolve cross-shareholding arrangements between Toyota Industries and these four companies, although Toyota Motor will maintain its investment in Toyota Industries via the aforementioned preferred shares. Toyota Group noted it is shifting its focus towards becoming a mobility company, encompassing the movement of people, goods, information and energy. Toyota Industries is specifically concentrating on goods, developing autonomous technologies for logistics equipment like forklifts, logistics management software and eco-friendly powertrains, alongside leveraging data related to goods movement. The privatisation, according to the company, is aimed at strengthening collaboration within the Toyota Group, enabling faster and more dynamic progress in these areas to position Toyota Industries as a key player in the mobility sector for goods. Since fiscal year 2023, Toyota Group companies have been reviewing their capital relationships to support sustained growth. In its press release, the group indicated ongoing discussions to determine the optimal structure for its transformation into a mobility company and to refine its capital relationships to enhance competitiveness.
