Opened in February 21, 2025, Sushi Park Paris, launched in collaboration with Saint Laurent, brings the same philosophy of high-end, traditional sushi to the French capital.
With the opening of Saint Laurent's Rive Droite Paris location includes a dedicated bookshop and a new culinary hotspot beloved by artistic director Anthony Vaccarello and his inner circle: Sushi Park Paris.
The original Sushi Park is a highly regarded omakase-style sushi restaurant located in a strip mall on Sunset Boulevard in West Hollywood. Known and loved for its no-frills, high-quality sushi experience, it has gained a cult following among Hollywood celebrities and serious sushi lovers the likes of Jennifer Lawrence, Taylor Swift, Hailey Bieber, Kendall Jenner, and more.

Sushi Park Paris is the first outpost of the iconic Californian destination located on the lower level of the Saint Laurent Rive Droite boutique. Sushi Park Paris embodies a minimalist and upscale aesthetic, blending traditional Japanese design with bold yet modern elements. Led by Chef Peter Park, the gastronomic journey reflects both the artistry of Japanese cuisine and the sophistication associated with the Saint Laurent brand. Just like the LA location, the restaurant is exclusive and follows a meticulously crafted tasting menu in an Omakase format featuring seasonal and simple yet innovative dishes.

Baseball United to find players through Japan's reality series
Baseball United, the pro league focused on the Middle East and South Asia, will partner with Tokyo Broadcast System (TBS) to give young Japanese hopefuls a shot at becoming professional players. The competition series, called TRYOUT: PLAN D, will see hundreds of prospects competing for two roster spots on the Mid East Falcons, one of Baseball United's founding franchises. The winners will play for the Falcons later this year during Baseball United's inaugural season in Dubai. The series will be presented in collaboration with TBS's iconic documentary programme Birthday, known for its behind-the-scenes look at athletes' transformative journeys. TRYOUT participants will endure several stages of competition, from July to November. One pitcher and one batter will ultimately be selected through a series of intense challenges that measure baseball skill, mental toughness, physical fitness and passion for the game. The winners will be announced just before the start of Baseball United's first season, which begins on November 14 in Dubai. " TRYOUT is more than just a competition – it's a celebration of culture, a catalyst of opportunity, and a testament of resilience. We are honored to collaborate with TBS and the legendary Birthday team to bring this vision to life," said Kash Shaikh, Chairman, CEO, and Co-Founder, Baseball United. TRYOUT will begin airing in July on TBS linear and digital platforms, with behind-the-scenes content and exclusive footage shared across Baseball United's global channels. The two winners will be officially introduced as members of the Mid East Falcons before the team's game against the Karachi Monarchs, on Wednesday, November 19. "Partnering with Baseball United for TRYOUT allows us to elevate that mission by offering young Japanese players the opportunity of a lifetime – to transform their lives through sport, and to do so on a truly international platform," said Hidemitsu Takahashi, Producer of the show from Tokyo Broadcasting System.

Offbeat fashion ambassadors, from Christopher Walken to Metallica, prove industry is looking beyond age
At age 82, Christopher Walken has lost none of his magnetism. The American actor – by turns enigmatic, droll and inexplicably unsettling – has become the latest face of Saint Laurent. Photographed by Glen Luchford, Walken appears in the brand's menswear campaign wearing a roomy lambskin blouson, hands sunk into trouser pockets, gazing out with an air of practised detachment. It is classic Walken and classic Saint Laurent: moody, lean and loaded with presence. This latest casting by creative director Anthony Vaccarello is less about shock value and more about a kind of refined rebellion. Walken, after all, has spent decades crafting characters that exist outside the norm: the haunted veteran in The Deer Hunter (1978) and the tap-dancing enigma in Fatboy Slim's Weapon of Choice video (2000) are two diverse examples. He is nothing if not unpredictable, a quality that aligns with Saint Laurent's own taste for the off-centre. Vaccarello, whose campaigns have previously featured Michelle Pfeiffer at 66, Charlotte Rampling at 78, and Keanu Reeves and Lenny Kravitz, both well into their 50s at the time, is clearly uninterested in chasing merely youth. Instead, he opts for figures whose faces tell stories: character actors, enduring musicians and artists with personal mythologies, whose wrinkles and reputations become part of the allure. This shift is part of a broader recalibration in casting for the fashion industry. In October 2023, Loewe's campaign starred the late Dame Maggie Smith, then aged 88, seated regally in a vast faux-fur coat. Daniel Craig, ex-James Bond, unshaven in slouchy knitwear, became its menswear muse for autumn/winter 2024. Meanwhile at Balenciaga, former creative director Demna paired 70-year-old arthouse actress Isabelle Huppert with 24-year-old Thai pop star PP Krit Amnuaydechkorn in a clever dialogue across generations. Elsewhere, Prada's eccentric casting history is the stuff of fashion lore: from Gary Oldman, Tim Roth and Willem Dafoe walking its 2012 Villains runway, to Jeff Goldblum and Kyle MacLachlan for autumn/winter 2022. Age aside, in a forward-looking Gen-Z moment, Dolce & Gabbana swapped models for social media royalty Lucky Blue Smith and Cameron Dallas in autumn/winter 2016. The two were dubbed 'new princes' by the brand, in a nod to a new digital world. Even the rougher edges of rock have found their way into campaigns: John Varvatos enlisted Iggy Pop in 2006; and Italian menswear house Brioni, under the fleeting tenure of Justin O'Shea, went full throttle by casting Metallica. For the 50th anniversary of its intrecciato bags, Bottega Veneta wove a tapestry of creative talent, enlisting actresses Lauren Hutton and Julianne Moore, musician Neneh Cherry, and author Zadie Smith into a campaign that felt more like an art installation than an advertisement. These are not mere celebrity endorsements, either; they are character studies. Each campaign speaks to fashion's growing desire to frame itself not simply through beauty, but also through narrative, texture and contradiction. Smith may be an award-winning writer and essayist, but through Bottega's lens, she is also a woman of quiet, intellectual style. Kravitz, now 61, is such an artistic force, he wears leather trousers to the gym. That's not to say that enlisting the young and beautiful no longer works. Gucci recruited A$AP Rocky and Ozark actress Julia Garner to front recent fragrance campaigns, while Prada chose pop-sensation Sabrina Carpenter, infiltrating her music videos with subtle product placement. As the face of Prada Beauty, her videos feature a lipstick and even branded candy. What is increasingly apparent, however, is that influence is no longer linear, but rather fluid and searching for a grounded, yet highbrow authenticity. Walken's debut for a major fashion house, then, feels less like a pivot and more like a perfectly timed entrance. Saint Laurent isn't merely dressing an actor, it's absorbing a mythology, and in Walken's case, a distinctly American yet deliciously peculiar one. Cool, it turns out, has very little to do with age and everything to do with narrative control. And no one controls his own story like Walken.

Best restaurants near Etihad Arena: Where to fuel up ahead of concerts
Etihad Arena is buzzing most days of the week with award ceremonies, mega concerts, and even UFC and NBA. All that buzzing, however, means lots and lots of hungry – and thirsty – visitors on Yas Island. Luckily, the island is jam-packed with lots of brilliant bars and restaurants near Etihad Arena (something our waistlines and the Time Out Abu Dhabi Restaurant Awards shortlist can attest to). So whether you're in the area for a show or just popping in, here are the best bars and restaurants near Etihad Arena – according to our official list of the best restaurants in Abu Dhabi. Bonus: All of the spots on this list are within a short walking distance of the arena, making it perfect for fuelling up pre- or post-concert. Bars and restaurants near Etihad Arena Time Out Abu Dhabi Restaurant Award 2025 Winners Art Market We all know breakfast is the most important meal of the day, and there's no better place to enjoy it than Art Market. Using a small but mighty selection of fresh, local, ethically sourced ingredients to create some of our favourite early morning dishes, start your day with your choice of French toast with orange zest and cinnamon, organic porridge with coconut, almond butter and berries or lots of different things on toast, to name a few, enjoyed with coffee specials that will blow your socks off. But it's not just breakfast here: this place is licensed so you can get drinks all day as well as an all-day menu. Licensed. Yas Bay, Yas Island, (052 917 1523). Bua Thai Café Credit: Bua Thai Café Bua Thai Café is one of the biggest crowd-pullers on Yas Bay Waterfront, and rightly so. Founded by Chef Buaban C. Tucker, whose culinary journey started by preparing food for earthquake victims in Nepal, the menu celebrates tangy Thai tapas as well as classics like pad Thai, mango sticky rice and tom yum soup. We're big fans of the interiors too – think lush greenery, wooden furniture and intricate artwork. This secret garden-inspired eatery is a visual delight. Licensed. Yas Bay Waterfront, Yas Island, @buathaicafe (02 575 3158). Nuri Credit: NURI Grill & Bar Perhaps the finest Korean restaurant in town for you to salivate over, Nuri is a sizzling Korean steakhouse that offers prime cuts of meat, chic interiors, a stylish bar and even karaoke rooms where you can sing to your heart's content after a few mixed drinks. Before that you'll want to get stuck into its highest quality, and ethically-raised, cuts of meat, with an emphasis on wet-ageing to really make the meat stand out from the crowd. Order à la carte or opt for the omakase menu which will leave the selection up to the chefs. The choice is yours. Licensed. Hilton Abu Dhabi Yas Island, @nurigrillbar (054 211 5151). Time Out Abu Dhabi Restaurant Awards – Highly Commended Barbossa Credit: Barbossa If endless views, tacos and Mexican mixed drinks sound like your definition of a good time then you've come to the right place at Barbossa. Spearheaded by Chef Mina Mouris Zaki, this street food spot has taken over the space formerly occupied by La Carnita, bringing modern Mexican and Latin American cuisine to the capital through authentic highlights like Barbossa ceviche, carne asada tacos, guac & chips, fajitas and tuna ceviche tostada. It's got a lively bar scene too, so be sure to stick around for a drink (it's one of our favourite nightlife spots in Abu Dhabi). Licensed. Yas Bay Waterfront, @barbossa_auh (050 185 8068). Siddharta Lounge by Buddha-Bar Overlooking the twinkling waters of Yas Bay, this swanky rooftop bar is one of the best places to head for drinks and bar bites with a cool crowd and fantastic views. Part of the Trilogy by Buddha-Bar, bar snacks here err on the fancy side, with sushi, ceviche and maki taking pride of place on the Mediterranean-Asian fusion menu, and taste even better against unobstructed views of Abu Dhabi's sunsets. Arrive early and stay late for when the party really kicks in. Licensed. Yas Bay Waterfront, Yas Island, (050 601 1194). Time Out Abu Dhabi Restaurant Awards – Shortlisted Bushra by Buddha-Bar We've mentioned The Trilogy already, and Bushra by Buddha-Bar is yet another must-visit restaurant near Etihad Arena. Bushra has an exciting Middle Eastern menu and dishes are well-crafted and delicious. Dive straight into the mezze – the muhamarra is a standout – before making your way through the grills and creative desserts. Licensed. Yas Bay Waterfront, Yas Island, (050 601 1195). Daikan Izakaya Another eatery serving up delicious Asian dishes on Yas Island is Daikan. You'll find Abu Dhabi's first branch of the Dubai favourite on the pier at Yas Bay, but unlike the Dubai OG, in Abu Dhabi, Daikan takes the form of an izakaya (including drinks licence), expanding on its menu to include a wider variety of dishes. It's still small in scope, but a touch more varied, featuring a handful of starters and salads; small plates including gyoza, avocado steak and a katsu chili bao; sushi and sashimi; different kinds of ramen, and a charcoal grill. Licensed. Yas Bay Waterfront, Yas Bay (022 358 680). EL&N London If you're on the hunt for the pinkest desserts in town, look no further than EL&N London at Yas Bay Waterfront (you literally can't miss it). This ultra-pink, Instagram-worthy spot is perfect for those who love all things bright and bubbly. EL&N's space offers both indoor and outdoor seating, a big dessert menu, and more pink than you can imagine. From indulgent French toast for breakfast to a hearty s'mores cookie pan or the Dutch baby pancake – and of course, the colourful drinks like the blue sapphire iced latte. Unlicensed. Yas Bay Waterfront, Yas Island, (02 883 9395). Hanar Brought to us by the same team behind the well-loved Daikan, this Mesopotamian-meets-Anatolian spot is so undeniably cosy and comfy, that you'll find yourself wanting to spend all afternoon or evening there. For mains, you can't miss the lamb neck. Served with a touch of theatre as the chefs deconstruct it right at your table, revealing tender morsels of meat from the bone, it's well-seasoned and generous enough for two to share. In the mood for something smaller? The lamb chops deliver on flavour. When dessert rolls around, expect something a little different: a deconstructed baklava cream cheese. It's a unique twist on the classic, balancing all the sweetness with a whole lot of texture. Plus, it couldn't be closer to Etihad Arena unless it was inside the actual venue. Licensed. Yas Bay. (02 639 0017). Hunter & Barrel Credit: Hunter & Barrel With its elegant façade, carnivorous menu and epic location set directly against the twinkling water of the marina, Hunter & Barrel has carved out a reputation as one of Abu Dhabi's top steak restaurants. Originally hailing from Dubai, this Australian steakhouse has a focus on sharing, with signature grills and meat cuts served on communal boards, so make sure you order a bunch of stuff to share. Its burgers are also some of the best in the business if you're looking to shake things up a bit. Licensed. Yas Bay Waterfront, Yas Island, (02 886 8299). McCafferty's Super popular since it opened in 2023, McCafferty's is a crowd favourite any day of the week. The pub has 10 different hops and apple-based beverages on tap, but you can also order bottled hops, alongside grapes by the glass or bottle and short measures. On the food front, you can expect all your pub favourites, such as chicken wings, fish and chips, burgers and pizzas. Licensed. Hilton Abu Dhabi Yas Island, (058 598 3623). Neighborhood Café & Bar A super laid-back spot to refuel in between adventures on Yas Island, Neighborhood serves up good vibes all day long. Expect hearty breakfasts, unrestrained desserts, and everything in between – think comfort food with a creative twist, all made with fresh, local ingredients. Whether you're after a quick coffee, a long lunch, or a cheeky drink with friends, this stylish licensed café nails the mix of chill and charm. Bonus: it's got that artsy Yas energy too. Licensed. Yas Creative Hub. (02 585 8065). Osmo Lounge & Bar Credit: Osmo Lounge & Bar Yas Island may be best known for its impressive array of adrenaline-fuelled activities, but if you're after something a little more relaxing, head to the Hilton Abu Dhabi's Osmo Lounge & Bar. From a popular afternoon tea to Bubbles & Beats on Fridays when you can pick from a selection of delicious bar bites, it's a great spot if you want a bit of luxury before heading to your show or gig. Licensed. Hilton Abu Dhabi Yas Island, @osmolounge (02 208 6900). Paradiso Shortlisted in our Best Italian category, Paradiso does not only serve up delicious Italian fare but also pretty spectacular views over Yas Bay. Do try chef Nicole's famous linguine and the frosted lemon Paradiso – the refreshing burst of citrus goes down just as smoothly as a shot of Italian lemon short drink and does a splendid job of leaving you refreshed on a hot day. Licensed. Yas Bay Waterfront, Yas Island, Zeera by Buddha-Bar As to be expected from the Buddha Bar brand, the recipes and preparations at this contemporary restaurant have a unique twist, while there are occasional hints of more traditional influences too. Home to perhaps the most picturesque setting of all Indian restaurants in the city, it sits pretty on Yas Bay Waterfront and serves up stunning sunsets alongside sharing-style plates, biryanis and traditional tandoori grills to name a few.
