in shimabara, japan (aug’24)

made it to what feels like the edge of japan after a whole morning of travelling into shimabara, nagasaki. a city that feels like we were transported back in time. serving hyper-local ingredients in particular seafood around the shimabara bay, with ingredients straight from his father’s fish shop next door. with very clean cooking, highlighting and maximising the natural flavours with the most beautiful presentation to match its scenery.

started with an anchovy potato tart, uni and onion puff, and a natural kuruma ebi stuffed with a egg mayo salad. ‘shimabara salad’ with local rice, kelp and uni, with a light hint of sesame oil was interesting, really loved the broth made of ham, kelp and mushroom with a huge local rock oyster. the same ham of the broth was also served with fried hamo, before the signature dish of octopus tenticles and okra which was too pretty to eat. the next signature blue crab somen was one of my favourites of the lunch, as shimabara is known for their local somen, the texture and flavour of this was sososo good. was wow-ed by the cold brew niboshi broth which served with the unagi, made with anchovies abundant in this area. before ending with a seafood caldozo, and a anko, wasanbon sugar dessert with cheese ice-cream.

so far away but worthy of a trek, completely highlighting the seafood produce of this region of japan which is still somewhat undiscovered. simple cooking with so much depth of flavours, looking forward to his menus in other seasons, will be back the next time i’m around kyushu.

Takahiro Inoue lived his whole life on the Shimabara Peninsula, apart from a short stint as a cooking school in Osaka.
He opened his current place up 3 years ago. His initial Italien influenced cuisine evolve rapidly. Another example that Chef cannot resist the siren lure of the Japanese food culture.
He now focuses on local dishes which he refines and adopts. The execution is flawless which is extraordinary as he never has cooked with a mentoring master.

A wonderful hospitality makes this a true destination restaurant. Less

Pesceco 2nd visit — long, chill, boozy lunch in winter season featuring crabs and duck. Best expression of local ingredients especially seafood. Such a special place definitely worth the trip. •

Another one of my absolute favourite places. This is a place which defines the culinary experience imo, almost putting you in a surreal space where the nature, sea, serenity are just outstanding. One of the most simple but stunning restaurant settings and every dish executed to perfection. The octopus dish was just incredible. So simple and refreshing. Not many comparable places in the world.. max BOOM level for me.
