I visited the popular French restaurant "LATURE" in Omotesando for lunch.This course truly made me realize what it means to enjoy a meal with all five senses.The first standout dish was a macaron made with venison blood. With each bite, a complex flavor unfolded, evoking a sense of the "wild"—a truly unique creation. The following cake salé began with an unexpected texture, followed by the delightful aroma of cheese, showcasing remarkable originality.The appetizer, Thai carpaccio, combined the soft sweetness of the fish with the gentle texture of rice, enhanced by a refreshing sauce, resulting in a light and enjoyable dish. The pâté en croûte changed in flavor and texture with each bite, and the combination with three different sauces was exquisite, especially the blueberry jam that left a lasting impression.The baked fish wrapped in pastry was a well-calculated dish, where the sweetness of the fish and pastry was followed by the richness of browned butter. The main dish, roasted Ezo deer, had no gamey taste and was rich and robust in flavor. It paired wonderfully with the foie gras sauce, and the accompanying vegetables each had their own character, particularly the two-year-aged "Meijin" potatoes, which were impressively sweet.The dessert was a refreshing composition that evoked early summer, with the tartness of kiwi accented by shiso, culminating in a delightful touch of Japanese nuance. The meal concluded with a financier and herbal tea, allowing me to savor the lingering flavors.Overall, this course was not only visually stunning but also filled with surprises, intrigue, and undeniable deliciousness. It offered many first-time experiences and was truly a French dining experience that engaged all five senses. Considering the quality, the price was quite reasonable, making it an exceptionally satisfying choice.
