After finishing, I savored the lingering aftertaste, enjoying a moment of relaxation.2. Salted Foie Gras ToastNext is a classic dish that fully realizes the potential of its ingredients, elevating the foie gras to a sublime state. The chef originally intended for guests to enjoy the foie gras on its own, without any accompaniments. However, due to customer requests, they added toast, which became popular and has remained on the menu. The foie gras, marinated only in salt, is served atop toasted bread. The rich sweetness of the foie gras intoxicates the palate, and the dish is designed to highlight its natural flavors without the interference of strong spices or sweet liqueurs, which are often used to mask the inherent taste of foie gras.

The glossy, three slices of foie gras glisten atop the toast, enticingly inviting you to take a bite. As you sink your teeth into it, the smooth, mild texture surprises you, and the warmth of the dish melts in your mouth, creating a sense of euphoria. The rich aroma and flavor of the foie gras, combined with the sweetness and acidity of the accompanying bread, create a harmonious experience that captivates the senses.3. Elm CappelliniThis dish is visually stunning and captures the palate with its vibrant flavors. The sauce drips beautifully, and each bite reveals a depth of taste that lingers pleasantly. The cappellini is adorned with a frothy elm topping that offers a beautiful sweetness and a wonderfully smooth texture. The pure white color of the elm complements the noodles, enhancing the dish's visual appeal. The sauce, made from the broth of boiled elm with just a touch of olive oil and salt, creates an elegant flavor that is both light and refreshing. The unique texture of the noodles, reminiscent of somen, glides smoothly down the throat, providing a delightful sensation. Each bite is gentle and soothing, showcasing the inherent qualities of the elm, which is surprisingly rich in flavor. 4. Fried PigeonThis signature dish by Chef Kawashima is a staple on the menu, with seasonal variations featuring either pigeon or fugu. The classic KFP (Kawashima Fried Pigeon) is a playful take on KFC, and the chef is known for presenting the cylindrical box of KFP in front of guests, creating a fun photo opportunity. The technique used in this dish is meticulous, with the pigeon breast being fried for just five minutes from a raw state, achieving a medium-rare texture while retaining the juices. This method is efficient and preserves the flavor, showcasing the chef's dedication to quality. The moment you take a bite, the crispy exterior gives way to tender meat, and the flavors burst forth, creating a delightful experience.5. LettuceThis dish is another classic, featuring seasonal vegetables. It may seem simple, but the chef's dedication to the quality of the lettuce is evident. The lettuce is sourced from a local supermarket, presented in its original packaging, and cut into portions.

The chef's exploration of the inherent qualities of lettuce has resulted in a dish that elevates this humble vegetable to new heights.6.
