For any and all curious cat owners who have ever wondered what it might be like to eat like their cat, Fancy Feast is serving up the answer with a new and exclusive pop-up restaurant in New York City called Gatto Bianco—or "White Cat."
There are only a limited number of reservations that can be accommodated by Gatto Bianco's four tables, which will only be available for two evenings. The ultra-exclusive experience sees canned cat food brand Fancy Feast ask and answer: "What if our cat food was more like Italian cuisine?"
This pop-up restaurant helps to kick off the launch of Fancy Feast's Medleys line for cats. And at the restaurant, humans will get to enjoy baked sea bass, Osso Bucco-inspired salmon and more.
