Guess what, Winter Park? If you answered “I don’t care, ‘cuz how about that stock market!?” I’ll let it slide. But if you said “Uhh, I dunno, we’re getting another steakhouse?” you’d be as right as Maldon salt on a medium-rare ribeye.
Yes, Paradox — billed as a “modern steakhouse” and one where “indulgence exists without compromise” — will open this summer at 326 S. Park Avenue where Blu on the Avenue stood for 13 years before closing last September.
The restaurant will offer two distinct rooms in a completely reimagined space — a main dining room with a touch of Gatsby opulence, and a members lounge “designed for those who value discretion.”
A “Michelin-starred chef” will helm the kitchen, but the mysterious folks behind this mysterious restaurant haven’t revealed who this mysterious chef is. Someone who knows Paradox’s owners should probably tell them that Michelin stars are given to restaurants, not chefs…
