RE: Veuve Clicquot Champagne Bar @ KaDeWe (Berlin, Germany)
Is it normal for a department store in Europe to have a champagne bar?
A few years ago, interior designer Yasumichi Morita, who worked on the renovation of Isetan Shinjuku(maybe you know that is the most fashionable department store in japan),
He made set up a champagne oyster bar on 2F.
It was felt very innovative at that time.( ・∀・)
Yes I think it's quite common here : ) Nothing super fancy though, it's a small cozy space, full of energy, so it's easy to just stop by for a glass without any preparation (getting dressed up etc). You don't usually go to a proper stylish Champagne Bar carrying lots of shopping bags, but this one you can, and you can still drink a fantastic Champagne, that's what I love about! I googled Yasumichi Morita, but couldn't quite find the oyster bar in Isetan Shinjuku.., I'm very interested. Thanks so much for telling me, he seems to have done a lot of interesting design work worldwide, wow!!
Sorry ! it was my explanation shortage!
Champagne bar in I say ”THE STAND”↓

There was oyster at the menu of opening, but now it seems has changed to coffee and sweets.

The consistent theme of his creation is "Glamorous"
and
The impression I have about Japanese department stores is festive.
It feels be doing a festival everyday.
So it is a place for champagne is fitting.
I appreciate your polite reply.@anna-bella ( ・∀・)ﾉｼ

The chandelier and his "glamorous" style got the best marriage.
His creation is self-taught.
It is wonderful for each other that Baccarat with 250 years of history appointed him.
I remember being totally stunned when one of my friends in Tokyo posted about this chandelier a few years ago. I'm so glad you told me about Yasumichi Morita!! It made me laugh when I saw the cost of the chandelier - 4 billion JPY ... hahaha!
