割烹 渡辺
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Tucked away in a quiet part of Niigata, this was one of my highlights for kappo last year. Understated, but well seasoned and delicious. The dashi is on the more flavourful side of things, but that's the way i like it. Crab dishes were as good as any crab senmon ten. Top level service and great local Niigata sakes rounded things off.

Another visit to @rowon5london where Spencer Metzger’s immense talent has finally been unshackled following his move here from The Ritz restaurant. Together with Jason Atherton’s passion for hospitality and attention to detail this is a formidable partnership that has put Row on 5 in the very top tiers of UK dining right from the get go. Quickly and unsurprisingly earning 2 Michelin stars, the food here and the refined yet homely aesthetic surpasses many a 3 star that I have visited

Another visit to @kol.restaurant in London. Definitely one of my favourite Mexican restaurants in Europe. What Santiago Lastra has built here is seriously impressive — a restaurant with deep Mexican soul, filtered through British produce (mostly) and seasonality in a way that feels original rather than contrived.
This isn’t a gimmick restaurant.
It’s thoughtful, confident and full of identity. There’s precision here, of course, but also warmth. Real flavour. Real personality. The kind of meal that is truly memorable

Another visit to @elianerestaurant in Brussels. I’ve been a fanboy of @kobedesramaults for over a decade now since my visits to In De Wulf and then the incredible Chambre Separee in Ghent. I was in love with the intensity of the counter at Chambre Separee so was sorry when it closed (as was always the plan). So when Kobe finally opened his latest project Eliane I was of course one of the first through the door.
Here Kobe is cooking a Carte Blanche menu that is spontaneous and ever changing depending on what products are at their peak. Served in a room that, with his vinyl collection playing an ever changing soundtrack to the meal as chosen by whoever is free to select a record, feels like you are dining in his living room. After this second visit I can’t wait to return for a third. Highly recommended

One of my go to casual restaurants @levi_cph is an informal eatery set in the heart of Copenhagen serving Italian and Japanese flavors alongside harmoniously paired wines curated by founders Jesper Boelskifte and Peter Trauboth.
Boelskifte and Trauboth brought their visions to life with the help of Danish designer Johannes Torpe; creating an atmosphere that embodies and marries old Italy and Japanese sophistication within a modern metropolis. This is a great place to go any day but has the added bonus of being one of the cities only restaurants that opens on a Monday. Highly recommended
