An Indonesian restaurant with a “modern French flair” headed up by Cédric Vongerichten.

Wayan is Cédric’s first solo venture, after partnering with his father, Chef Jean-Georges Vongerichten, on eateries in New York and Jakarta. For the food, expect French-Indonesian fare fusing Bangkok born Cedric's culinary background (having worked through the ranks at several of his father's restaurants) and his wife, Ochi's Indonesian heritage. Dishes are served family-style, and include avocado gado gado (a typical Indonesian salad) and nasi goreng (fried rice, a national dish of Indonesia).

The 80-seat space was designed by Rockwell Group and is outfitted with greenery, exposed brick, a marble bar, rustic teak paneling and authentic wood carvings from Indonesia. Cedric is also staying on as Executive Chef at Perry Street in the West Village.
