There is coffee that gives a morning jolt, and thank goodness for it (especially on this Ash Wednesday).

And then there’s another type of cup that sings a softer song. The roast is lighter, the flavors more delicate and layered. It’s the coffee you have for an afternoon chat, a spell with a book or just a good think.

Maybe now, with the echoes of a swift Mardi Gras receding, that has fresh appeal in New Orleans.

Check out @appliedartscoffee , where you’ll find the unaccustomed delights of Scandinavian breakfast, great Nordic breads and a setting that feels like visiting the den of your favorite aunt who travels the world and keeps a cozy home filled with eclectic finds.

If you’ve been on the hunt for a pickled herring smorbord (open face sandwich) with carrot pearls, this place has you covered.

There’s a fantastic egg salad smorbord too, and a continental breakfast by way of morning charcuterie board.

Here’s a look around. Link in my bio has the story of the fine dining chef and his partner who shifted gears to create it

【資生堂パーラー 銀座本店】
⁡
銀座の中心、文明開化の記憶を今も宿す老舗『資生堂パーラー 銀座本店』。1902年創業、前身は日本初のソーダファウンテン。ここはまさに“洋食文化の礎を築いた老舗”。化粧品会社の一部門として生まれながら、「美は食とともにある」という理念のもと、食の世界に美意識を持ち込んだ。その空間は、白いクロスに金彩の皿、照明の反射まで計算された静謐な舞台。客は観客であり、料理は作品だ。

幕開けを飾るのは「伝統のコンソメスープ」。琥珀色のスープから立ち上る香りは、まるで肉の旨味を凝縮したエッセンス。口に含むと、骨や筋から滲み出た深い旨味がじわりと広がり、後半にはコクがどっしりと舌を包み込む。ひと口で胃が目を覚ますような濃度感。

「クラブクロケット」は、蟹の繊維がしっかりと残る上質な仕上がり。衣は軽く油も控えめ、トマトソースの酸が蟹の甘みを引き締める。老舗の味ながら古びず、むしろ時代を超えて洗練を感じる。

「海の幸のトマトマカロニグラタン」では、ごろっとした海老や貝が贅沢に顔を出す。ベシャメルのまろやかさとトマトの酸味が層をなし、表面の焼きチーズが香ばしく全体をまとめる。熱々の湯気の向こうに、洋食の原風景が見えるようだ。

看板「オムライス」は、ふっくらとした厚みのある卵でライスを包み込む。中のチキンライスはバターの香りと粒立ちが際立ち、上にかかるのは酸味の効いたトマトソース。ケチャップではない、きちんと仕立てられたクラシックソースの気品。懐かしさと端正さが同居する、洋食の理想形だ。

「飛騨牛のビーフカレーライス」は、黒に近い深いブラウン。香りはビターで、ルウの奥に焙煎の苦味とスパイスの香りが潜む。ひと口目の衝撃よりも、食後にじわりと残る旨味の余韻が印象的。まさに“大人のカレー”という表現がふさわしい。

全体を通して一貫しているのは「端正」という言葉。皿の構成、火入れ、ソースの濃度、すべてが整っている。一皿ごとに感じる安定感が心地よい。体が覚えている味という感じ。洋食が日本でどう磨かれてきたか――その答えがここにある。100年以上の時間が積み上げた技と美意識が、静かに今も輝きを放つ。美しい洋食とは何かを知るために、この場所を訪れる価値はある。

ご馳走様でした。

A new single ingredient tasting menu celebrating rice with a spotlight on Yi O Rice at @ando.hkg! Grown on Lantau Island (one of the largest remaining rice-producing areas in HK), @yiofarm rice is locally cultivated and harvested only twice a year. Every part of the process is hands-on from harvesting, sun drying to milling. As one of his signature dish Sin Lola features rice, Chef @agux1988 is highly inspired and transforms this agricultural story into a 8-course tasting menu that showcases rice in many forms from steamed, puffed, fermented, creamed, and simmered. To complement the menu, @carlito.gorgor - winner of the Michelin Sommelier Award - presents an exciting pairing with rice drinks from Japan, Korea and China. Priced at HK$1,888 per person, this exclusive experience will only be available on Monday dinner until the end of this month.

Few ramen shops in Japan command the reverence of「Iida Shoten」. Located in the quiet hot-spring town of Yugawara, it is currently ranked No.1 in Tabelog’s national ramen category. It is also a recipient of the Tabelog Silver Award, further cementing its status among the country’s elite dining destinations.

Founded in 2010 by Chef Masato Iida （飯田将太）, the shop has become synonymous with refinement and precision. Iida’s style centers on clarity and balance—crystal-clear broths layered with depth, house-made noodles tailored to each soup, and carefully sourced ingredients treated with restraint and respect.

What makes「Iida Shoten」extraordinary is not intensity, but harmony. Each bowl feels deliberate and composed, rewarding careful attention rather than overwhelming the palate. It is ramen distilled to its purest expression—quiet, precise, and unforgettable.
