I made a lunch reservation about two weeks ago and visited the restaurant. Although it was a holiday, it felt quite spacious, allowing us to enjoy our meal at a leisurely pace.The amuse-bouche had a unique visual appeal. I experienced pani puri for the first time. It was crispy, and the chickpeas inside provided a delightful texture. Additionally, there was another amuse-bouche featuring young sweetfish. It was perfectly fried to a crispy texture, and I thoroughly enjoyed the rich flavor of the fish.The chef's specialty featured oysters from Iwate Prefecture. These oysters were creamy and rich, and the jelly that evoked the taste of seawater paired with the black seaweed was simply outstanding. I almost wondered if this was the main dish!For the fish course, we had madai (red sea bream). I was impressed by its appearance and texture, which felt like a new experience. The madai was firm and had a satisfying chew, bursting with umami.The meat course featured pork from Ibaraki Prefecture. I heard they source it through a unique route, and I had the privilege of tasting the rare shoulder and thigh cuts. This was the most refined pork I’ve ever had… The accompanying vegetables and sauce were fresh and had a natural sweetness.For dessert, we enjoyed a melon shaved ice with cherry compote, among other items. The fruity desserts were refreshing, which was delightful. Most importantly, the presentation was lovely, and the ingredients were showcased beautifully.We also had three types of mignardises. The popular chocolate cashew nuts were served on a unique plate. This was truly a one-of-a-kind experience. Each baked good highlighted the flavors of the ingredients, showcasing their quality. Delicious coffee was also available for refills.The non-alcoholic options were abundant and original, making the selection process enjoyable. The koji drink was particularly delicious.The explanations of the dishes were very thorough, enhancing our overall experience.I would love to visit again. It was a great meal!
