- Reisa Jiang added a new meal Dinner at アルシミスト / Alchimiste at Les Alchimistes
Alchimiste アルシミスト 2nd visit — 1st time at this new location featuring high ceiling and open kitchen, which gives the restaurant completely different character. Favorite dish was the KFC style abalone, perfect texture and seasoning. Although the wine list seemed less extensive than before.. •

- Reisa Jiang added a new meal Dinner at Yaumay ヤウメイ at YAUMAY
Sunday brunch with some fine bottles. First time tasting the 18 vintage from Tremblay and CLB. Both got ripe yet fresh nose, juicy fruit and soft spices. Though the CLB has got a slightly firmer structure, fuller palate and more energy. Curious how they will evolve.

- Reisa Jiang added a new meal Dinner at 樋口 at Jingumae Higuchi
Higuchi 樋口 1st visit — this place definitely exceeded my expectations, possibly one of the best kaiseki experience in Tokyo so far. Traditional setting, great service, subtle and balanced flavors. Some rare & seasonal ingredients included whale tongue, nodoguro, meiji maguro and hiou (ice fish). Great sake selection too. Too bad no photos allowed... More

His tempura is more modern and refined compared to the old master’s traditional and rustic style, although you can relate the two chefs from the signature anago dish. Everything was nicely done especially the shirauo, it was so good that I actually asked for a second serving. •

Warm and homey setting, choice between seasonal ingredients (fugu in winter) and his signature suppon for the grilled course. For rice dish there’s also a choice between uni and takenoko. Favorite was the super juicy boiled daikon. •

- Reisa Jiang added a new meal Dinner at 中華たかせ at CYUKA TAKASE (中華たかせ)
A couple interesting oldies, matured but still alive. The Barolo was dense and well structured while the Morgon still got some juicy fruit. A pleasure to drink both.
