TATLER TIPS

The bread and butter of this restaurant are kaiseki meals, which they do with deceptive ease while keeping the prices to manageable proportions.

• An irresistible starter is the Hokkaido scallop and duck liver: it makes up for its diminutive size with two ingredients that pack a surf and semi-turf punch.

• Another unusual signature dish is the double-boiled tuna belly soup, a clear broth with silken tofu, tender leeks and of course, tuna belly.

• Items such as the sashimi are a gorgeous fiesta of colour and unquestioned quality. You won’t need a dessert.
