Was delighted to revisit Tapas Molecular Bar on the 38F of @mo_tokyo, the eight-seat counter run by culinary impresario @ushikuk. This time Chef Kento was joined by the talent behind @spicelabtokyo, @chef_tejas_sovani. It was fun and interactive, a true collaboration. Great to see these two completely different personalities - Tejas, the unfailingly polite gentleman from Mumbai with a penchant for historical research, and Kento, the fast-talking showman who studied art in university - join forces to create a really delicious meal.
