Austin, Texas: Lutie’s
Leave it to Ken Fulk to create the most seductive of gardens. The new Austin restaurant, part of the Commodore Perry Estate, opened in April of this year, and its theme couldn’t be more timely. Fulk dreamed up a dining hall that blends with its surroundings. In it, hanging plants, as well as plant-shaped chandeliers, textured fern branches on the tables, and scalloped banquet sofas covered in leafy prints submerge eaters in greenery. The massive windows bring the estate’s manicured landscape inside.
