RXR Realty Announces Celebrity Chef Adriana Urbina as 475 Clermont's Newest Culinary Resident

RXR Realty has announced celebrity chef Adriana Urbina as the newest chef to participate in the culinary residency program at 475 Clermont in Brooklyn.

Beginning this month, 475 Clermont residents will enjoy intimate dinners and wine pairings hosted by celebrity chef Adriana Urbina within her apartment, a full-time resident of the building. Since 2011, Ms. Urbina has successfully run Tepuy Dining, her pop-up and private dining initiatives, and been invited to bring the concept to ten cities internationally.

“We are excited to welcome Adriana to 475 Clermont. We believe experiential programming is the next evolution of amenities and creating a unique culinary experience by having a live-in chef create five-star level dishes truly enhances the living experience in a memorable way,” said Scott Rechler, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of RXR Realty.

The innovative residency culinary program, which RXR launched with Resident at the building last year, breaks down the barriers of traditional dining by connecting emerging culinary talent directly to building residents via one-of-a-kind, fine dining experiences.

“Resident was founded on the principle of supporting the next generation of star chefs by creating memorable dining experiences. The intimate supper club format allows our chefs to freely test ideas, meet people, and hear feedback, while guests discover new talent and are treated to an incredible experience,” said Brian Mommsen, founder of Resident.

475 Clermont’s monthly dining experiences are part of the building’s robust amenities package, including a 24-hour attended lobby, landscaped courtyard featuring a 90-foot custom mural by Mona Caron; business center; indoor/outdoor children’s playroom; indoor/outdoor fitness center including Peloton bikes; yoga studio; pet spa and rooftop terrace and lounge featuring an outdoor movie screen, grilling stations, dining areas, catering kitchens, bocce court, and game tables; private resident and bike storage; and onsite parking. Dinners will be open to all residents by reservation with up to 10 seats available. Every building resident will get two tickets to a dinner, distributed on a first-come, first-serve basis. Residents can also request a private event at a special rate.
