Located just a short walk from Akasaka Mitsuke Station, this is one of the restaurants run by the highly popular chef Suetomi.I finally made my long-awaited visit after booking a reservation a year and a half ago.While there are many restaurants specializing in either wood-fired or straw-grilled dishes, this place excels at both!They use incredibly high-quality ingredients, and the dishes are so well-balanced that they never get boring.I never felt overwhelmed; instead, I enjoyed a delightful experience filled with freshness.By the end, the rice and udon definitely filled me up, making for a truly satisfying dinner.Here’s what was on the menu that day:⭐︎ Hokkaido Funka Bay Hair Crab Somen⭐︎ Stir-fried Water Spinach with Straw⭐︎ Nagasaki Nodoguro (Blackthroat Seaperch) Wood-fired⭐︎ Kombu-cured Ise Lobster with Straw Grilling and Sea Urchin⭐︎ White Sweet Sea Bream Straw Grilled⭐︎ Flap Meat Steamed Rice with Straw Grilling, Whiskey Aroma, Niigata Mochigome⭐︎ Yamanashi Prefecture Hikawa White Peach Granita⭐︎ Mie Prefecture Ise Bay Wild Eel Wood-fired⭐︎ Goto Islands, Nagasaki Prefecture, Kue (Grouper) and Hokkai Tomakomai Hokkigai (Surf Clam)⭐︎ Wood-fired Corn and Zucchini Rice⭐︎ Shigure-ni, Shirasu (Whitebait), and Mentaiko (Spicy Cod Roe)⭐︎ Wood-fired Udon⭐︎ Wasanbon (Japanese Sugar) and Hokkaido Azuki Bean Mizu Yokan (Water Jelly)⭐︎ Blueberry and Yogurt Ice Cream
