From the moment I stepped into the restaurant, the atmosphere felt incredibly refined, with a natural coexistence of the tranquility of Japanese aesthetics and the vibrancy of Chinese cuisine. The staff's demeanor and the comfortable distance they maintained heightened my anticipation for the dishes to come.Each course was impressively crafted, showcasing not just luxurious ingredients but also a meticulous balance of aroma, temperature, texture, and lingering flavors. I was particularly struck by the use of dashi and fermentation. Despite being Chinese cuisine, there was a delicate touch reminiscent of Japanese food, and each bite brought new surprises.The richness of the shark fin and dried seafood flavors was intense yet not overwhelming, creating a wonderful flow that made me look forward to the next dish after finishing each one. The cooking techniques were exquisite, maximizing the natural flavors of the ingredients. The pairing with wine and tea was also very sophisticated, enhancing the overall harmony with the dishes.While the prices may suggest it’s not a casual dining option, considering the meal as an "experience" makes it worth far more than the cost. As a chef, I found it to be a source of great learning and inspiration, and I was genuinely moved by the extent to which they have refined their craft.This was a remarkable place that I definitely want to revisit in a different season, leaving a lasting impression.
