A special place to celebrate a loved one's birthday. This time, we visited L'ecrin, a renowned French restaurant in Ginza, for my partner's birthday.Restaurant Name: L'ecrin Time: 18:00 Location: 4-5-5 Ginza, Chuo-ku, Tokyo, B1F Mikimoto Building Number of Guests: 2 Reservation: Required Despite being in the heart of Ginza, descending into the restaurant transports you to an extraordinary space. We were guided to a private room, allowing us to celebrate the birthday in a cozy atmosphere without worrying about our surroundings.We ordered: - 【DINNER COURSE】Menu L’écrin JPY 28,000 - About 4 glasses of wine (approximately JPY 1,500 to 3,000 each) This was my first experience enjoying a full-course authentic French meal.What stood out was not just the luxury of the ingredients, but the care and story behind each dish. The presentation was beautiful, and with each course served, I found myself excitedly wondering, "What’s next?"I was particularly pleased that many dishes featured seafood from Hokkaido. Since my partner is from Hokkaido, these delightful coincidences made the birthday meal even more memorable.We enjoyed about four glasses of wine paired with our dishes, enhancing the experience and allowing us to savor a different kind of dining time than usual.The calm atmosphere of the private room and the attentive service contributed to the impression that this restaurant offers not just food, but a delightful dining experience itself. It’s a place you’d want to choose for special occasions like a loved one’s birthday or anniversary.Pros: - Enjoy a special time in a private room - Appreciate the story and beautiful presentation of each dish - A refined atmosphere suitable for anniversaries and birthdays Cons: - Given the JPY 28,000 course, I expected a more straightforward experience with luxury ingredients. However, since this was my first authentic French meal, I realized that it’s about enjoying the cooking techniques, composition, service, and ambiance as well. I look forward to visiting various restaurants for comparison in the future.Notes: - Private rooms available - Credit card payments accepted
