Interesting to see the chef serving up a combination of Kokuramae-style and Edomae-style sushi. I really like some of the otsumami a lot.

- Peter Chang added a new meal Lunch in a village by the shore at Là-Haut
Lunch in a small village by Lake Geneva, with good views of the lake and the mountains on the southern side. Game season meant there was a lot of interesting stuff that isn't normally on the menu.

- Peter Chang added a new meal Lunch at Xin Rong Ji with Gerhard at Xin Rong Ji with Gerhard Huber and Tomoko Morikawa
It's difficult to do a fine dining Chinese restaurant justice when there are just 3 people for lunch, but I tried to order a few dishes that I thought would be interesting. Taizhou cuisine is very seafood-driven as it sits on the coast of Zhejiang Province, and I seldom order meat dishes when I come...

- Peter Chang added a new meal Dinner at Wing with Gerhard at Wing with Gerhard Huber and Tomoko Morikawa
There's a ton of food here with the set menu at this restaurant, and some of the ingredients are as fresh as they come - such as pork from pigs slaughtered on the same day and, of course, fish caught on the day.

- Peter Chang added a new meal Lunch at Yong Fu with Gerhard at Yong Fu with Gerhard Huber and Tomoko Morikawa
Another good meal and the first experience of Ningbo cuisine for Gerhard and Tomo-chan. Most dishes were based on seasonal ingredients, and showcased the amount of care taken by the restaurant to elevate even the most humble ingredients.

- Peter Chang added a new meal Dinner at Ta Vie with Gerhard at Ta Vie with Gerhard Huber and Tomoko Morikawa
Fulfilling my duty of bringing Gerhard to the new 3-star in Hong Kong. Sato-san never disappoints, and this night I tried a couple of dishes which were new to me, too.

Taking Gerhard for some dim sum at a Michelin 3-star restaurant. Quality is very high, with some old school dishes not easily found these days.

- Peter Chang added a new meal Dinner at Caprice with Gerhard at Caprice with Gerhard Huber and Tomoko Morikawa
Another fantastic dinner, with the last shipment of tomatoes from the gardens of the chef's mother in the Loire Valley.
Guillaume Galliot is jokingly referred to as the "king of sauce" and one meal here will easily demonstrate why that moniker is well-deserved.

- Peter Chang added a new meal Dinner at Sushi Shikon with Gerhard at Sushi Shikon with Gerhard Huber and Tomoko Morikawa
Gerhard eats sushi outside Japan for the first time in... a long time! At the 3-star Shikon by Yoshitake.
Very high quality, several levels above Saito HK and Araki.
Add-on of abalone hand roll was expensive but so good!
