The staff at Les Enfants Gates know that the quality is high, and are not afraid to brag about it.
While I was waiting for my first course to arrive, I asked to borrow one of the terrine recipe book...
I just had lunch there and I must say, it was a very pleasant experience.
This minimalistic restaurant is so subtle that I missed it the first time and walked right by it. Keep your eye out for the...
Somewhere in the midst of the concrete jungle that is Shiodome you will find (hopefully) the Conrad Hotel. This designer hotel is home to Gordon Ramsay's Tokyo flagship (and the slightly less fancy Ra...
The food was fantastic and the service and smart casual atmosphere was superb. Unfortunately, I am giving it a rating of 3 stars for one reason only:
one of the waiters kept walking past us and snor...
Fureika is the fussiest Chinese restaurant I have ever been to. Nothing is brought straight to the table. Rather, like an air-express freight logistics hub, food is brought from the kitchen to a speci...
The Teppanyaki part is wonderful, The lobster was live two minutes before going on the grill and the beef was delicious. All courses were outstanding and the skill of the chefs a joy to watch (try t...
Sankame got one Michelin star, but remains unpretentious and quite affordable. Walking into the restaurant feels like the place was suspended in time--the customers seem to be old acquaintances of the...
Chemins delivered interesting food with unexpected twists and flawless service. No wonder it got a Michelin star.
I ordered the lunch set with one hors d’oeuvre (2,800 yen + 10 % service + water ch...
Le Jeu de l'Assiette is a small French restaurant located a few steps up the hill from the five-ways at Ebisu. The name means "the game of the plate" and it's quite clear that the chef aims ...
t was with trembling anticipation that I looked forward to my dinner at Cuisine(s) Michel Troisgros. This is only the second 2 star Michelin establishment that I have been to in my life, the other bei...
You’d be forgiven if you missed the cryptic entrance to Kosetsu. A small sign about the size of a postcard on the door of an anonymous building on a minor road in Ginza is the only clue to its exist...
While I've been having the odd coffee now and then at Cafe Michelangelo for longer than I care to remember, I had never set foot in the restaurant that sits behind it in the same compound in Daikanyam...
First a disclaimer: This review is based solely on the cocktails.
Now that I got that out of the way, they were delicious. I ended up at the Park Hotel because I got kicked out of the nearby Conrad ...
The food is French-inspired at Nouvelle Ere, but the thinking is global, and many interesting combinations, some of which were a first for me, appeared on the plate. And lots of foams.
The most memo...
Cogito is the first Michelin rated restaurant I have visited since the guide came out. The food is typical Tokyo French which means that it's very good for the most part, but with maybe not too much t...
In these sub-prime economic times one may be tempted to cut back a little. Speaking as someone who has done rather poorly out of this financial crisis I might say that is quite understandable. But nev...
I was recently treated for lunch at Maison Paul Bocuse at Daikanyama and was reminded why I like this restaurant so much. What's not to like about this place? The service is impeccable; absolutely fau...
Seriously, it was only alright. The service was quite good (even charming at times), but the food was decidedly average for this price-point.
The seared fois gras was the only standout, but given th...
The lunch set at Nakajima is total Japanese comfort food -- it tasted like “mom’s cooking.”
There’s not much choice in ingredients (you’ll get fish), but can specify whether you want it gri...
The Tokyo Michelin Guide 2009 awarded Sukiya-bashi three stars, recognizing it as one of the absolute best in the world. Its basement location underneath a business building in Ginza should not sugges...
