- Reisa Jiang added a new meal Dinner at 天 よこた at Ten Yokota
Ten Yokota 天よこた 1st visit — opened just over a year ago and already got a Michelin star. Very friendly chef (the son of the previous owner of 天冨良 よこ田) who speaks good English. Style of tempura is quite refined with some original twists such as curry salt in addition to regular salt. Favorite was the shiitake with shrimp meat, umami... More

Style of tempura is quite refined with some original twists such as curry salt in addition to regular salt. Favorite was the shiitake with shrimp meat, umami overload. A very enjoyable meal overall, definitely worth the star. •

- Reisa Jiang added a new meal Dinner at 茂松 at Shigematsu (茂松)
Shigematsu 茂松 1st visit — 1 Michelin star, somewhat under the radar. Bold flavors and very big portions, almost felt like I was back in the States. Would have preferred every dish at 1/2-1/3 of the size with a bit more finesse and variations. •

- Reisa Jiang added a new meal Dinner at 和史 神楽坂 -Washi Kagurazaka- at 和史 Washi
Washi和史 1st visit — great concept of modern Japanese cuisine in a casual setting. Favorite was the suppon & renkon croquette and of course the free flow sake pairing. @washi_taka0201

Cha kaiseki Onjaku 茶懐石温石 1st visit — another remotely located highly rated restaurant that’s worth traveling to. The grill was the centerpiece, and how the chef uses it to bring out the flavors of the ingredients was remarkable. The kinmedai here was pure perfection — crispy scales, juicy meat, profound flavor. The two hour trip from Tokyo was definitely worthwhile. •

- Reisa Jiang added a new meal Dinner at すし処めくみ at Sushidokoro Mekumi
Mekumi すし処 めくみ 2nd visit — better season this time so the experience was a lot more enjoyable than my first visit. Special ingredients include gasu ebi, the season’s last fugu shirako and bafun uni. The seaweed seasoned uni rice was heavenly. (No pictures on the nigiris as you are supposed to eat them as soon as they are served) •

- Reisa Jiang added a new meal Dinner at 焼き鳥 峠 at Toge
Yakitori Toge — cozy and byo friendly. Skewers were juicy and tasty, especially the liver, tsukune and chochin. Great for a casual wine dinner. •

Single Thread x L’Effervescence — one of the most high profile, highly anticipated collaborations so far this year and I was lucky enough to get the reservation. The dishes were quite impressive (although the portions were on the lighter side) both restaurants have preserved their DNA while elevated with new inspirations and creativity. Favorite dishes were Taco aux fruits de mer; Zucchini blossom tempura and Hamaguri two ways. Wine pairing was interesting but at this level of expectation and price point, it could have been better. Looking forward to seeing more from both restaurants. •

Sonoji 蕎ノ字 in early summer, those cute little fish were tasty! This place is just magical, perfectly satisfied every single time (maybe a bit too much sake), hands down one of the best tempura restaurants in Tokyo. •

- Reisa Jiang added a new meal Dinner at くすのき at Garden Restaurant Kusunoki
Another amazing meal at Kusunoki. Seasonal highlight was the awabi 4 ways: cold dish, roasted, tempura and grilled. Glad I ordered the Karasumi and snow peas add on, both delicious. •

Restaurante Gofio, 1 Michelin star — contemporary bistro that takes you on a gastronomic journey to the Canary Island. Discovered some unexpected flavors and ingredients combinations through the innovative dishes. Although the flavor of some dishes were a bit too powerful, gotta wash them down with some local wines. •
