Venue Details
Qwerty is a cosmopolitan restaurant, wine bar, and grill at Media One Hotel, shaped by the taste and instincts of Quentin, the editor once tipped as the natural successor to Anna Wintour. He left the front row for a dining room built on the flavours that carried him through deadlines and across continents.
Every dish exists for a reason. A ramen born from a Shinjuku all-nighter. Carpaccio tied to a summer on the Riviera he’ll never fully explain. Katz’s-style pastrami learned during a night waiting for a story that never came. Plates whispered about by photographers, reporters, and friends from every corner of the world. Inside, Qwerty feels like a press room that grew into something warmer. Conversations move fast. Champagne can land before the menus do. The terrace keeps its own editorial rhythm, dogs included on weekends, and the room carries that unmistakable mix of curiosity, wit, and quiet confidence.
The food is cosmopolitan with a real attitude. Halloumi with roasted grapes because sweetness saves you from long nights. From fish and chips the proper British way, to handcrafted pies that hit the comfort zone. Singapore noodles and ramen to schnitzel and bistro steaks. Vegan dishes that don’t beg for praise and make sure you leave room for the famous sustainable bread and butter pudding. The wine list is intentionally sustainable, with bottles from vineyards that care about the earth as much as the pour. Organic labels, Sea Change favourites, and champagne for the moments that demand it.
