Supernormal is a lively, all-day, Asian inspired restaurant with a contemporary Japanese aesthetic. The refectory-style dining room is flanked by a long, open kitchen and bar; downstairs lies a secret space for events, parties and karaoke. Supernormal’s menu is influenced by the cuisines of Tokyo, Shanghai, Seoul and Hong Kong. It celebrates the notion of shared feasts via a selection of classic dishes alongside some new and inspired interpretations.
If you’re a Chef de Partie or Demi chef looking to take your career to the next level, then Supernormal has endless opportunities to learn, create, and drive yourself to be the best chef you can.
