- Kevin Chen added a new meal Dinner at 炭焼き鰻 瞬 at Shun (瞬)
瞬
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Unagi at the highest level. Round 2. Just as good as the last visit with the autumn eels in spawning season. Different taste and texture to the early summer one.. I felt there was more bitterness, especially in the livers. Damn, damn good though.

比良山荘

The thing with shrooms season in the autumn is that almost all restaurants just serve 1 or 2 shrooms. Either matsutake or shiitake.. so it was a great surprise to visit Hirasansou and eat a bunch of different shrooms... each with its delectable character and flavour.

Either matsutake or shiitake.. so it was a great surprise to visit Hirasansou and eat a bunch of different shrooms... each with its delectable character and flavour. For some reason also, the ayu was also on form.. surpassing even that of the ayu I ate in June here. Service is exceptional as always and its one of those ritualistic journeys to do every year without fail.

2000 Monthelie-Douhairet-Porcheret Musigny

With tiny production, there are its pros and cons. Barely a quarter of a barrel made per vintage by the first winemaker of Domaine Leroy. The size of the production means that the winemaker has less juice to work with and ultimately the entire process is much less forgiving. The pros is that the because of the same scarcity, you know damn well the winemaker will do their best to make sure this is as good as they can make it.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
The wine shows considerable concentration and density. Not a particularly showy wine, but there are some nicely layered Chambolle floral and fruit notes on top of a bedrock of mineral, smoke and black cherry. I think this has potential to be a sensational wine, but right now it's a bit settled.

One of my favourites in Japan, the chochin is always the highlight and is ridiculously good. Juicy, flavourful and cooked perfectly.. one of my favourite chochins.

Visited on the last day before they moved location. More modern in style but precise and with an outstanding shari flavour balance. The otsumami in itself is almost equally as impressive, with caviar, anago, unagi and even some proper fukahire thrown in for good measure. Seems to be rather difficult... More

The otsumami in itself is almost equally as impressive, with caviar, anago, unagi and even some proper fukahire thrown in for good measure. Seems to be rather difficult to get a reservation these days and I can definitely understand why.

Outstanding meal at Naz a couple of months ago. Italian, Nordic and French cuisine combined with precision execution, beautiful plating amidst a cozy location. Wine list has a more natural focus but pairings work well with all the dishes. Quite a journey to get there as it is located just on the outskirts of Karuizawa, but extremely worthwhile.

A bit light on the seasoning in general but good nonetheless with quite a delicate batter. Service is up there and the chef is well focused but friendly.. Most pieces served by hand.

Another place that kind of sits on the outskirts of Fukuoka in Kasuga. Now run by the 2nd gen taisho, who spent a bit of time in Monaco before taking over the family business. The otsumami were excellent.. using ingredients that, even though aren't in season, were delicious. The neta are all high quality and this shop has a strong focus on the sourcing and preparation of the shari. Even though it was lighter than expected, I was pretty happy with it. At 2+ hours for lunch, it isn't a grab and go kind of place!

Different interior aesthetics and a somewhat unusual layout (with the back kitchen not connected to the counter at all). Decent quality with some nice otsumami, but not as inspiring as even their 2nd shop. Comfortable setting with a huge counter though and a fair number of sakes on offer. Just opened, so perhaps need to give it a bit of time before the taisho settles in.
