14, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Today, SL Green Realty Corp. (NYSE: SLG), Manhattan\u2019s largest office landlord, officially opened the doors to J\u014dji, its latest culinary destination at the iconic One Vanderbilt Avenue in New York City. Located below Midtown\u2019s tallest office tower in a secluded location within Grand Central Terminal, J\u014dji is officially open for business. <\/p>\n

\u201cI am truly honored to collaborate with Chef Boulud and SL Green on this exciting new venture at One Vanderbilt, which has such a significant place on the New York City skyline,\u201d said Chef George Ruan<\/strong>. \u201cI look forward to sharing my deep love and admiration for the diversity of seasons and Japanese ingredients with our guests. Together with Chefs Wayne Cheng and Xiao Lin, we have created an authentic, premium omakase dining experience.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cJ\u014dji is not only an intimate omakase dining experience, but a true sanctuary for sushi lovers such as myself,\u201d said Chef Daniel Boulud. <\/strong>\u201cThe tranquil ambience of J\u014dji\u2019s interior paired with the curated seasonal menus will provide each guest with a bespoke and refined experience. We are very proud that we are also able to bring an additional to-go experience for all our guests that work in the Grand Central vicinity, commuters and tourists who are looking for a convenient, high-quality takeout option.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cThere is no better moment to open the doors to J\u014dji than the present, an achievement that coincides with SL Green\u2019s 25th Anniversary as an NYSE listed company and the 2nd anniversary of the opening of One Vanderbilt,\u201d said Marc Holliday, CEO of SL Green<\/strong>. \u201cFor the past 25 years SL Green has dedicated itself to making improvements in the neighborhoods it serves, and J\u014dji was born out of this desire to further our commitment to the betterment of New York City providing a new, remarkable culinary offering.\u201d<\/p>\n

J\u014dji is located in a hidden refuge in Grand Central Terminal. The Japanese-inspired design by Shinichiro Ogata, founder of Simplicity Design, is authentically Japanese and uniquely New York. Best known for its use of the Shitsurai method, Simplicity has designed J\u014dji with a Japanese feel based on a deep reverence of nature to create a refined and serene dining experience that both inspires and delights.<\/p>\n

In addition to the J\u014dji omakase restaurant, SL Green, Chef Daniel and Chef George are opening J\u014dji Box, a separate, to-go sushi counter operating out of a storefront adjacent to the restaurant. Takeout options are available to order now via Toast Tab for pick-up service. Pre-selected J\u014dji Box offerings, including tuna nigiri, tuna maki, uni nigiri, salmon nigiri, maki rolls and additional offerings, start at $23.00. Customized selections and unique additions are also available via the online ordering platform. Delivery options will be available via third party apps on October 14, 2022.<\/p>\n

Chef Daniel and the Dinex team are supporting Chef George and his team operationally, providing strategic guidance over the restaurant’s day-to-day management, drawing from his nearly three decades of experience owning and operating various culinary operations.<\/p>\n

SL Green is working closely with the entire team, furthering its commitment to excellence within One Vanderbilt, and across its entire portfolio.<\/p>\n
