This might be Tokyo’s worst omakase and the most expensive one I’ve had anywhere 🫣😵‍💫🍣

Welcome to Sushi Sugaya, a $950 disaster dressed up in fine wood and premium fish.
In a city where great sushi is practically a given, this meal stood out for all the wrong reasons.

A clam so tough it could double as a dog toy. Ankimo paired with truffle cheese for reasons known only to the chef. And tea? Served in a plastic bottle.

Thirteen total servings. Five pieces of tuna, one nauseating clam, a lone uni, and a mega-roll no one asked for.

Sushi Sugaya doesn’t feel like omakase, it feels like expensive ingredient roulette.

This wasn’t just disappointing. It was careless.
Send this to someone so they never make the same mistake.

This might be Munich’s best restaurant and of the best in Germany 🇩🇪⭐️⭐️
-
Welcome to @atelier_munich , where chef @anton.gschwendtner_official Anton Gschwendtner is quietly carving his way into the top tier of German fine dining, with sharp flavors, bold compositions, and total control.

Tucked inside Munich’s iconic @bayerischerhof_munich Atelier holds two Michelin stars, but feels like it’s cooking for a third.

This is fine dining rooted in French technique, elevated with Japanese nuance, and grounded in the best Bavarian produce. A culinary triad with zero dogma, only precision.

Take the white asparagus with char caviar and miso hollandaise. Or the pikeperch with paper-thin kohlrabi, crab beurre blanc, and herb oil. These are textbook 3-star dishes, executed with artistry and intent.

Even the signature sweetbreads with lentils and sherry sauce feel unshakably personal, paired with a crisp, expertly chosen rosé by the charismatic sommelier.

Desserts rarely match the savoury in dynamism, but here, they were equals.
From a cheese course and pre-dessert of yellow beet and passionfruit to a strawberry and lemon gratin finale, the meal ended on the same high it began. A lost art, rediscovered.

Send this to someone who you would like to go with.

Follow along as I chase down Tokyo’s tastiest temptations and tell you exactly what it’ll cost. New day, new temptations coming!

This was the first restaurant to receive a Michelin star in Denmark! ⭐️🇩🇰

Today we’re at the legendary @konghanskaelder in Copenhagen, a true icon in Danish fine dining and 2 star @michelinguide
For Easter, I went to try their special lunch, hoping for feast. But from the start, something felt off… Crispy blinis, dry bread, mustard-heavy sauces, the mistakes kept pilling up.

There were moments of brilliance, like the fjord shrimp with mousseline and the quail ravioli, but overall the food lacked the finesse and flavor you expect at this level. When you have to ask for salt and pepper at a 2-star restaurant, you know something’s not right.

Service was polite and attentive, but a strange vibe hung in the air. Some tables got special attention from the chef, others were left untouched. At this level, all guests should feel equally valued.

Maybe it was just a bad day. But for the old King of Copenhagen, expectations are higher.

THE WAGYU SAMURAI OF KYOTO 🇯🇵 🥩

If beef had a temple, it would be Miyoshi and Chef Tsutomu Ito @itoututomu its quiet, knife-wielding samuarai 🔪

I visited this hidden gem last year in Japan when I was in Kyoto, and I still think about it way too often. Can’t wait to go back soon, because this wasn’t just a dinner, it was a full blown wagyu pilgrimage.

Located in the historic Gion district in Kyoto, Miyoshi serves what might be the most exquisite beef I’ve ever tasted. We’re talking melt-on-the-tongue, whisper-of-smoke, pure umami bliss. The seasonal elegance and meticulous flow of the meal feel undeniably like kaiseki.

From raw to seared to barely touched, every cut is honored like a religious symbol. This isn’t merely beef. It’s respect, ritual, and craft.

Send this to someone who needs a wagyu pilgrimage.
This is where beef dreams are born and ruined, because nothing will taste this good again😅😩

This is Copenhagens next Michelin starred restaurant ⭐️
*unpaid invitation, but my integrity and honesty remains unwavering.

Copenhagen’s next @michelinguide -starred restaurant might just be @restaurant_texture_ . A place where traditional French cuisine meets modern innovation, led by Michelin-starred chef, Karim Khouani @french_gastronomi who trained under @marcopierrewhit .

From frog legs with sage emulsion to the most decadent scallop crowned with truffle, each dish is an experience. And let’s not forget the golden brioche drenched in duck fat—pure indulgence.

But is this place truly worthy of a Michelin star? I’ve got some thoughts, and I’m sharing them all in the full video. Trust me, you’ll want to see what I think of this up-and-coming spot.

This might be the craziest lobster roll I’ve ever had and you won’t believe where I found it. 🦞😱

At $50, I was definitely skeptical, but when it arrived, I couldn’t stop staring. This thing was HUGE, over half a pound of lobster stuffed into a buttery brioche bun. 🥖 The mayo and scallions? Spot on. The fries? Yeah, they’re good, but we all know why we’re really here. 😜

This airport lobster roll completely shattered my expectations. One of the best meals I’ve had in an airport. 🙌

Tag someone who needs to try this, and let me know, where’s your favorite lobster roll? 🍴
