I visited L'OSIER in Ginza.This renowned French restaurant, managed by Shiseido, has earned three Michelin stars in the Tokyo 2026 guide. On this occasion, I opted for the lightest lunch course, "MENU DÉJEUNER," paired with wine.To sum it up, it was truly an exceptional restaurant. Everything from the food to the ambiance, tableware, service, and dessert cart was exquisite, leaving a lingering impression long after the meal.【Ordered Menu】 ・MENU DÉJEUNER ¥20,000 ・Wine Pairing ¥17,000 【LUNCH MENU DÉJEUNER】 ・Amuse-Bouche ・Assorted Shellfish with Oscietra Caviar ・Roasted Summer Venison from Tottori Prefecture ・Pre-Dessert ・Apricot and Almond Combination ・Dessert Cart ・Coffee From the very first appetizer, I was already amazed. The treatment of the cucumber was incredibly delicate, so refined that it hardly felt like a cucumber. I was instantly drawn into the world of L'OSIER with that first dish.There were about five types of bread, and I was delighted to try them all. Each one had a unique aroma and texture, making them a memorable treat between courses.The wine pairing was excellent, and I was thrilled when Japanese sake was served. It seamlessly blended with the French flow, adding a touch of Japanese elegance to the pairing.The corn soup was beautifully sweet and aromatic, delivering an immediate "delicious" reaction. The fish dish showcased high-quality ingredients, with superb cooking and sauce. The meat was tender, with the aroma of black truffle wafting through, keeping my happiness levels high until the very end.The desserts were equally top-notch, and my excitement peaked when the dessert cart arrived. The petit fours were delightful, making it hard to resist asking for more of everything.The official origin of the restaurant's name is "Osier," which means willow in French. I couldn't help but notice the letter "S" in the spelling, reminiscent of Shiseido's "S," which added to my excitement.While it is certainly in a special price range, considering the experience that includes the food, ambiance, service, and dessert cart, I believe the lunch offers a very high level of satisfaction.Perfect for anniversaries, dates, mother-daughter lunches, or as a treat for special occasions. Anyone who loves a vibrant restaurant will surely adore it. It was truly an outstanding three-star experience, and I look forward to visiting again in a different season.
