Located just a 4-minute walk from Roppongi Station, I visited "Koho," a Chinese restaurant recognized with a BRONZE AWARD as one of Japan's top 100 Chinese restaurants.I made a reservation for 6 PM on a weekday. It was almost the last day of this location, as they are moving nearby on May 28.I ordered the seasonal omakase course for JPY 22,000.The executive chef, Yuki Kaneko, learned the fundamentals of Chinese cuisine at "Heichinrou," the oldest Chinese restaurant in Japan, and honed his skills in cutting-edge techniques and presentation at the one-star restaurant "SENSE" in Mandarin Oriental Tokyo. After serving as head chef at various restaurants in Tokyo, he became the head chef at "Series" in Azabudai and opened this restaurant in April 2016.The main dishes, crispy chicken (Awa red chicken) and shark fin, were exceptionally delicious.I enjoyed every bite until the end.【Today's Menu】① Sakura shrimp and broad bean mousse with century egg tofu ② Returning bonito, straw-grilled with spicy sauce, green onion, and Sichuan pepper ③ Fuji trout with new onion and shumai ④ Jellyfish with lemon, served cold ⑤ Squid with spicy foam ⑥ Yamagata beef strip loin with Shaoxing wine and Chinese broccoli ⑦ Shrimp with raw sauce and truffle ⑧ Apple with youtiao and Peking duck ⑨ Firefly squid with white asparagus spring rolls ⑩ Spare ribs with bamboo shoots and soup ⑪ Houbuta with scallion, ginger, and Hong Kong fish sauce (Goto red grouper) ⑫ Awa red chicken with crispy skin and typhoon shelter style ⑬ Mako shark with golden broth and Yuki Maru rice ⑭ Mapo tofu (or Aosa noodles) ⑮ Crème brûlée with Earl Grey and coconut ice cream ⑯ Almond financier with English black tea
