Its name comes from Duddell Street in the Central district where this 2-floor destination dining room has become the hottest reservation in town. And Duddel’s is truly a showstopper, ignited by a dramatic inner staircase that rises along its spine and intersects it main public space. In between, a marble clad bar towers above a lofty living room that doubles as a lounge with Moroccan rugs and collector-worthy decor. What could easily be a museum or even private villa is actually a mix of living art gallery, 2-star Michelin eatery and garden penned by designer Ilse Crawford. Between meals and visits to the bar, visitors and members enjoy perks like lectures, talks, screenings and rotating art exhibitions.
