I went to a buffet that looked kind of like my school cafeteria with my mom, and I ended up spending so much time deliberating about which pastry to pick out of 7 choices that I ran out of time to eat.
In the Dining Area, spot lighting focuses on a toy horse rearing from and Indian cotton-draped table surface that is at times used as a buffet. The coffeepot and brass box are from a Marrakech street market; Mexican pottery and English bowls add harmonious touches of color and pattern. Wood and natural brick walls contribute warmth to the cavernous space. A floor was specially built with several layers of sound-proofing material, sand and industrial oak.
