I spend four months of the year in Milan, five in Shanghai, and the rest traveling around different countries. It’s a lifestyle I feel very fortunate to have. My schedule in Europe is always hectic, but this vivid, unforgettable night in Milan had to be recorded.

Crowned five times as the world’s best restaurant, Noma held a four-day guest residency in Taipei from August 8–11, set against the lush backdrop of YMS by onefifteen on Yangmingshan. Once a 1950s dormitory compound, YMS has preserved its mid-century modernist architecture while weaving together natural scenery, art curation, and gastronomy—an oasis on the city’s edge. Within its grounds, Lab 10 and Restaurant 12 are the first to open, offering respectively a contemporary tea experience and a seafood-focused menu rooted in local waters.
