【2026.08 Private Reservation in a Room♪】This super innovative French restaurant is located at the second corner on Sannō Street, heading north from Kanayama Station along Fushimi Street (Route 19). New reservations are only accepted for regular customers, and even they can only book last-minute. Thanks to a generous invitation from a super regular customer, I returned for the first time in two years! Chef Susumo is known for never repeating a dish. The effort and creativity put into the dishes are extraordinary, truly deserving of the title "Susumo World." I went to experience this one-of-a-kind French cuisine! Once again, I took a taxi from Kanayama Station (walking is not an option). I greeted the staff at the entrance and entered the restaurant. We started with a toast with sparkling wine paired with our drinks. I thoroughly enjoyed the long-awaited Susumo World! 【2026.08 Omakase Course♪】★Potato Caviar Jelly made from black-haired Wagyu, a sheet of potato and cheese with white asparagus, mozzarella cheese foam, and starlet caviar. ★Porcini and Wagyu Mousse Wagyu and white fish mousse, Genoa oil, porcini powder, guanciale (cooked pork cheek), white balsamic and fig spheres. ☆CHAMPAGNE NAPOLÉON Cuvée Tradition ★Lotus Root and Crab Vichyssoise Crushed steamed lotus root combined with cream and milk for the vichyssoise, served with a sauce made from snow crab miso, crab essence espuma, and lotus root sprouts (pickled in sweet vinegar and wasabi oil). ☆Clos Du Val Sauvignon Napa Valley 2025 ★Ezo Abalone Croquette Using live abalone, the meat is placed in the shell, covered with potato and truffle, then breaded and baked. Served with a 30-year-old balsamic sauce, tomato sauce, Umbrian summer truffle, and basil tips. ☆FLOWERS 2022 ROSE OF PINOT NOIR ★Natural Scallop Mont Blanc Sautéed scallops from Hokkaido, cream and chestnuts from Kumamoto, dried scallop sauce, and a biscuit made with Aonori from the Shimanto River. ☆Mizunomori Junmai Daiginjo Active Sparkling ★Kurokaba Beef with Autumn Aroma Hiroshima matsutake mushrooms wrapped around the core of Kumamoto Kurokaba beef sirloin, topped with additive-free sea urchin from Nemuro, a rich bonito broth sauce, and yuzu wasabi. ☆KALIN CELLARS SONOMA COUNTY PINOT NOIR 2000 ★M Salad A classic and specialty here, featuring organic vegetables with a non-oil shiso dressing, topped with refrigerated aged red wine poached dried fruits. ☆Clockwise Monte Rosso Vineyard Zinfandel 2021 ★Edamame and Eel Risotto Dadacha bean risotto, grilled eel from Amakusa, olive oil from Sicily, and homemade black shichimi. ★Armagnac Pudding A pudding made from brioche soaked in Armagnac and eggs, served with grape and fig sauce, almond ice cream, Armagnac foam, almonds, cinnamon powder, and marigold leaves. ☆Total Bill: JPY 84,000 per person I can’t wait for the next invitation to this wonderful restaurant! (*≧∀≦*) It’s about a 15-minute walk from Kanayama Station, so walking is possible, but since the staff stand outside to greet guests, it might feel a bit embarrassing to walk (you might be thought to be cheap for not taking a taxi), so I recommend taking a taxi.
