A gelato bar with scoops including matcha burnt cheesecake are all made in-house. Beside it is a wall of self-serve, Japanese-inspired baked goods. There's melon pan, a bun with a cross-hatched streusel topping; French sweets such as financiers in flavours including matcha and hojicha; and sweet potato shio-pan (Japanese salt bread). All are baked on-site.
At the back of the space, a sushi and sake bar offers three styles of rice wine – available individually or as a flight – plus sushi including the popular Sudoku platter – a segmented tray of nine kinds of sushi and sashimi. Meanwhile, the Wagyu Kitchen is the place for luxe hot pot featuring Japanese beef; kushiyaki (grilled skewers, from beef to pork belly); and rice bowls topped with wagyu short-rib, an onsen egg and pickles.

Telegram CEO Pavel Durov reveals plans to pass down multi-billion-dollar fortune to 100-plus kids

Pavel Durov, the founder and CEO of messaging app Telegram has revealed who will inherit his multi-billion-dollar fortune. Mr Durov recently drafted his will, making provision for over 100 children — but they won't get a cent for another 30 years, he revealed in an interview with French magazine Le Point . The app founder is worth $13.9 billion (AUD$21.4b), according to the Bloomberg Billionaires Index. 'I want them to live like normal people, to build themselves up alone, to learn to trust themselves, to be able to create, not to be dependent on a bank account,' he told the publication. Mr Durov, 40, added that he has six children who were conceived naturally with three different partners, along with at least another 100 children he has fathered through sperm donations. 'The clinic, where I started donating sperm 15 years ago to help a friend, told me that more than 100 babies had been conceived this way in 12 countries,' he said. Given his current net worth and an estimated 106 children, each child would stand to inherit approximately $131 million. 'I want to specify that I make no difference between my children: there are those who were conceived naturally and those who come from my sperm donations,' he told the publication. 'They are all my children and will all have the same rights! I don't want them to tear each other apart after my death.' Mr Durov is not the only tech billionaire to have fathered a surprising number of children. Tesla founder and billionaire, Elon Musk, is also an enthusiastic advocate of spreading his genes, welcoming 14 children with four different women since 2002. Over the years, he has been vocal about his desire to have more children to increase the birth rate. In 2021, he claimed that there are 'not enough people' in the world, expressing concern for civilisation if people don't have large families. 'I think one of the biggest risks to civilisation is the low birth rate,' the Tesla CEO said at an event hosted by the Wall Street Journal. 'Please look at the numbers. If people don't have more children, civilisation is going to crumble, mark my words.' It is not yet known how Musk will divide his fortune.

Billionaire to leave fortune to 100 children he's fathered

Last year, a clinic in Moscow began advertising its supply of Durov's sperm and offering free IVF for women willing to have a child with 'one of the most famous and successful entrepreneurs of our time'. The AltraVita clinic said: 'Pavel Durov is willing to finance all the IVF protocols that use his sperm. It is a very generous contribution to society from someone who wants to help those dreaming of becoming parents.' Durov's 100 children rank him among the world's top sperm donors, though he is not the most prolific. Jonathan Jacob Meijer, a Dutch YouTuber, reportedly fathered 1000 children, according to Netflix, although he insists it is only 550. Durov is not the only technology entrepreneur to advocate having a large number of children. Elon Musk is reported to have at least 14 children, who he has referred to as his 'legion' and has pushed 'smart people' to have more offspring. 'A collapsing birth rate is the biggest danger civilisation faces by far,' Musk said in 2022. In the US, a 'pro-natalist' movement has emerged amongst conservatives urging people to have more children in order to tackle declining birth rates. 'I want more babies in the United States of America,' JD Vance said in his first address as vice president in January. Durov founded VKontakte, known as Russia's Facebook, before he left the business and Russia under pressure from the Kremlin in 2014. He later founded Telegram, an encrypted messaging app used by more than 1 billion people, as well as a cryptocurrency. Telegram has repeatedly faced criticism for its light-touch content moderation and last year Durov was charged in France with complicity in spreading child abuse online and allowing drug trafficking. He has denied the charges and told Le Point they were 'totally absurd'. Durov runs Telegram, which only has around 50 staff, from Dubai, although since his arrest in France he has been barred from leaving the country. Born in the Soviet Union, he now has French and Emirati citizenship. Despite his vast paper fortune, he is known for his minimalist lifestyle, strict diet and veganism. He told Le Point he did not own a 'house, yacht or private jet', although he enjoyed staying in 'beautiful hotels'. Loading The billionaire is also fitness guru. He told Le Point he begins his day with 300 push-ups and 300 squats and posts videos to his Instagram of his ice baths. His arrest last August at Le Bourget airport fractured a previously friendly relationship with the French state. Durov's French citizenship application was fast-tracked by Emmanuel Macron, an active Telegram user, who had previously personally spoken with the billionaire over the app.
