Tom Dixon's The Manzoni is a restaurant where "everything is for sale"
Diners can shop from their table at The Manzoni, a new Milan restaurant by Tom Dixon that doubles as a furniture showroom and the designer's European headquarters.
The opening of The Manzoni follows Tom Dixon's move last year from west London to the Coal Office in King's Cross, where the brand's main offices are situated, along with a restaurant and showroom.

"They had a restaurant at the previous office in London and having moved to King's Cross, there's always been that element of having food and design together," explained Tom Dixon press officer, Jessica Strutt to Dezeen.
"So with the success of Coal Office, now moving into Europe and having our first footprint here, we're doing that similar formula. It was successful so we want to try it in a different location." Tom Dixon's Fat bar stools are arranged along a wall-hung marble bar
The 100-cover restaurant opens fully in early May, following a soft opening during Milan design week, which saw the space host a number of dinners and parties. Once it officially opens, diners will be able to buy everything in the space.
"The idea is that everything is for sale, so table settings, through to candle holders, glassware, furniture, absolutely everything will be available to buy," explained Strutt.
"It's in a hospitality context, so you can experience it and then see it in a live setting rather than just being on the shelf."
