Following the successful launch of Akira Back last month, The Henderson introduces Peridot, a stunning, innovative concept perched within Summit 38, the building’s 38th floor. 

Positioned as a new concept pushing the boundaries of design, mixology, and cuisine, Peridot offers an immersive experience rooted in innovation. Its lime-green space, curated by Studio Pablo Ferrari, sets the stage for a sensory journey anchored by its Global Terroir Cocktail Programme and a fermentation-forward haute cuisine menu. 

At the helm of the bar is Francois Cavelier, whose terroir-inspired cocktail series pays homage to the geography and spirit of each drink. The debut collection transports guests to Kagoshima, Japan, drawing inspiration from the rich, volcanic soils from the Sakurajima volcano and reimagining classic flavours through shochu-based blends and artisanal glassware.

Highlights include The 3 A.M. Whisky, a late-night mingling of Kanosuke single malt and Maillard black apple decoction; Nude Study, a portrait laced with citrus and peppers; and Durian’s Consent, a bold mix of Musang King durian and overproof rum.

The cocktail programme is complemented by Chef Lisandro Illa, redefining plant-based dining with dishes built on fermentation and slow preparation. From small bites to elegant 3- or 4-course lunches, Chef Lisandro’s plant-forward haute cuisine shines and aligns well with Peridot’s experience.

Standout creations include Earth and Sea Caviars and Golden Sparassis Crispa Mushroom Fries, which showcase an interplay of textures and flavours, the Fleshy Fruits Cold Cuts, where nut-based cheeses and fruit-derived charcuterie offer a multisensory experience; Koji Carrot Pumpkin Ginger Soup, and Asado Mushroom with Chimichurri Forest and Chorizo Tempe.

Peridot comes alive with soulful live performances from Thursday to Saturday, featuring saxophonist Veronika Semylit, pianists, and late-night DJs. The atmosphere evolves from luminous daylight calm to vibrant nocturnal energy, centred on a striking light green grand piano — the space’s artistic centerpiece.
