Gero Fasano’s Favorite Things

The fourth-generation restaurateur and hotelier presides over the Fasano Group, known for its impeccable design and service. What started in 1902 with a single Italian restaurant in the heart of São Paulo now includes 10 hotels and 30 restaurants throughout Brazil, Uruguay, and the United States. In New York, the Fasano Fifth Avenue’s private club and residences feel like a well-kept secret. The Fasano Restaurant on Park Avenue South feels like a mirage of tasteful men in finance. Gero’s eye for the finer things has brought him a Rolex Yacht-Master 42, a Head tennis racquet, a Conran Shop backgammon set, and more.
