Charcoal-grilled ‘Kinmedai’ alfonsino with watercress purée and vegetables.
Seasonal or customised set menus (booked a month in advance) are available. Dishes are new interpretations of classics using seasonal ingredients. Overseeing the kitchen is chef de cuisine Hidemichi Seki, who has been there since the restaurant opened in 2012. Recent highlights include the charcoal-grilled Bresse pigeon breast and pear candy dessert, where each bite is hot and cold, crunchy and soft for a dramatic finish.
