A popular Italian restaurant next to Heian Shrine.On this day, I was invited by a regular to the event called "A la Carte Day.""Corn Mochi with Ricotta Cheese and Edamame Soup"The saltiness of the edamame paired wonderfully with the sweetness of the corn."Cucumber, Okra, and Kuzuya's Fried Tofu with Umeboshi" JPY 500A refreshing dish."Kinako Pork Kakuni and Soft-Boiled Egg in Charcoal-Grilled Kamogawa Chili Dashi" JPY 1200It has a strong Japanese vibe, but it leans towards Western cuisine as well.As a personal fan of kakuni and soft-boiled eggs, I was completely satisfied."Ayugai and Potato Fish & Chips with Kaffir Lime Mayonnaise" JPY 1000An unbeatable combination!Ayugai works surprisingly well as a fish & chips option."Homemade Karasumi and Cucumber Tagliatelle" JPY 2000This is a guaranteed hit.The saltiness comes from the karasumi.It seems they used chicken for the dashi."Octopus and Celery Arrabbiata Spaghetti" JPY 2000Great for celery lovers.The octopus is large but has a mild flavor, which balances well with the dish."Squid Tentacles with Lime and Cilantro Spaghetti" JPY 2000You can also taste the chicken dashi here."Champagne" JPY 3800Maison LefebureNos Esprits Libres & ContentsThis champagne is from a Japanese importer specializing in small-batch production by the artisan Empathie. I enjoyed a tasting event, which led to them carrying it.With 70% Meunier and 30% Chardonnay, it has a lightness that makes you wonder, "Is this really Meunier?"As the temperature rises, the Meunier aroma becomes more pronounced.It was a great meal!
