I visited the famous Joel Robuchon restaurant. Reservations are required two months in advance, and it’s nearly impossible to secure one without effort. I logged on right at noon and finally managed to book a table.From the moment I stepped inside, the atmosphere was delightful. The staff guided me to my seat.First, they explained the course, and we toasted with champagne. Perhaps it was the mood, but it tasted exceptionally good.Now, for the first dish: Cherry Gazpacho. I was familiar with carpaccio, but this was a cold soup. Topped with ricotta cheese, it added depth to the flavor.The second dish was Caviar and Lobster Jelly. It had a unique design that only Robuchon could pull off. The cauliflower mousse on top was incredibly smooth and delicious.Next, the bread cart arrived. I was told I could choose as much as I wanted, but I decided to be cautious and only selected the Bacon Épi, fearing I wouldn’t have room for more later.The third dish was Crab and Tomato Mille-Feuille. It was beautifully presented, and the flavors of crab and tomato harmonized perfectly.The fourth dish featured Scallop Ravioli. Instead of making the ravioli look like scallops, they made scallops resemble ravioli. In essence, it was a luxurious dish packed with scallops, each one delicately paired with caviar. The sauce was delightful, and I wiped my plate clean with bread.The fifth dish was Sole Meunière. They cut and served a magnificent sole right in front of me. The fish was incredibly delicious, and the cooking temperature and sauce were exquisite.The sixth dish was Roast Beef. It was a Rossini-style dish, but instead of having the foie gras on top, it was perfectly attached to the side. They cooked it at a low temperature to achieve this. The beef was among the best I’ve ever had—so tender and fluffy.For dessert, we started with a sugar sculpture resembling a canelé, filled with ice cream.Then, two dessert carts appeared. Although I was full, I couldn’t resist and managed to try the ice cream, fruit salad, and chocolate.As expected from a top-tier restaurant with a Michelin star, both the taste and atmosphere were exceptional. At JPY 100,000, it was quite a price, but I felt it was worth the experience.
