Opened by Kei Kurusu who apparently won the lottery for 200,000,000 yen and spent almost all of it eating at gourmet restaurants around the world.
The common theme of this restaurant is reduction of ingredients to enhance and focus on its original flavour.
Overall this is a very unique restaurant and these dishes wouldn’t be found anywhere else really. 9/10, only knock is that their wine list is quite expensive.
Wagyu beef jerky
Spring salad
Lobster bisque with only lobster and water. He takes an entire blue hommard and blends it to invoke a creamy texture without the use of milk or cream.
Mushroom risotto
Tomato spaghetti with green sauce made of purée of tomato leaf
Tempura egg plant
Ibusana wagyu beef apparently that’s slow cooked over 6 hours
Home made ice cream
Crème brûlée

I’m all for minimalist presentation, but surely there are better plating options for that risotto
Which menu is this? When I checked Ikyu they had a “ikyu-special” menu that is supposed to have the classics.
Also, how was the creme brulee?
