Jaques Reymond family to open new restaurant in Cremorne

Children of celebrity chef Jacques Reymond, the proprietors of South Yarra's Bistro Gitan and PRAHRAN’s L'Hotel Gitan, have signed a lease to establish a third restaurant.

Located in North Yarra, Cremorne, this new eatery will occupy the whole ground floor of Cobild Construction’s new eight level office development at 9-11 Cremorne Street.

Teska Carson‘s Luke Bisset and Matthew Feld brokered the lease.

Mr Bisset said Nathalie, Antoine, and Edouard Reymond (pictured alongside their father) would split the 345 sqm tenancy into two spaces a 35-seat European focused wine bar and a 75-seat bistro.

Antoine Reymond says the yet-to-be-named restaurant will be slightly different to either of the Gitans. "It will be a little more European as opposed to French-focused."

SJB Interiors, who did work on the Gitans, will design both spaces. "It'll be French new-wave," says Antoine. "There's a gorgeous, heritage-listed brick facade, a terrace out the front, and nice high ceilings inside."

The family hopes to open by early June.
