What Yoji Tokuyoshi has built here is not a lesser version of what came before. It is a more honest one, more open, more at ease with the world. The technique and rigour remain, the produce is still impeccable, but the room has lost its solemnity and gained life.

It is essential for anyone who enjoys Japanese-rooted cooking. I will return — this time without waiting years to taste Yoji’s food again. That much is certain.

O que Yoji Tokuyoshi ali construiu não é uma versão menor do que fazia antes. É uma versão mais honesta, mais descomprometida e aberta ao mundo. A técnica e o rigor mantêm-se, a matéria-prima continua irrepreensível, mas o ambiente perdeu a solenidade e ganhou vida.

É obrigatório para quem gosta de boa comida de base japonesa. Eu vou voltar, desta feita sem esperar anos para sentir o sabor da cozinha de Yoji, isso é uma certeza.

A super fun night at @bentotecamilano in Milan 🇮🇹 with the 6-hands collaboration between Japanese chefs @yojitokuyoshi, @sakamotoken of @cenci.kyoto, and @masahirock.23 of @osteriagiorgionedamasa! It was great to be back at Bentoteca as the fusion of Japanese and Italian cuisines is done superbly well here.

A super fun night at @bentotecamilano in Milan 🇮🇹 with the 6-hands collaboration between Japanese chefs @yojitokuyoshi, @sakamotoken of @cenci.kyoto, and @masahirock.23 of @osteriagiorgionedamasa! It was great to be back at Bentoteca as the fusion of Japanese and Italian cuisines is done superbly well here. The restaurant was born during the pandemic after Chef Yoji turned his fine dining restaurant into a Japanese bento takeaway shop. It was so successful that what was supposed to be a pop-up remained to this day. After traveling in Europe for a while, the part of me that was missing Asian food was immensely satisfied with the refined and comfort flavors at this collaboration. We started with a plethora of creative dishes made with tuna and Wagyu beef before culminating with a delicious ramen and grilled pigeon. The brilliant tiramisu made with warabi mochi was the perfect way to end the meal. Lovely to share this fun night with @anastassiaav and @foodandtravelhk!

The menu:

- Otoro con dashi, acqua di pomodoro e wasabi
- Chutoro yukke
- Shiroae di asparagi bianchi e akami con caviale
- Carpaccio di wagyu ichibo e tonno
- Inari e negitoro
- Otoro jabara, melanzane e riso glutinoso
- Tartellette con calamari e piselli
- Tempura di friggitelli e ragù di anatra
- Yakitori di animelle e lumache di mare
- Wagyu teriyaki e mozzarella in carrozza
- Tortellini di mazzancolle
- Consommé e noodles
- Piccione, risotto salsa aglio nero e mirtili
- Gelato al Roquefort crumble di capperi
- Warabi mochi e spuma di tiramisù

Today Yoji- san showed me how fo make his style temaki bento, which can be also ordered for delivery.🇮🇹 He mixed the beef with chopped capers and seasoned with olive oil and salt,served with shaved bottarga; tuna belly- with sesame seeds, salt and olive oil. Gamberi were served whole. The rice was seasoned with vinegar and very finely chopped chives. Excellent dish and easy to make at home. Grazie Yoji-san! #instaluxeat Less
