The dining experience and the design of the eatery go together, as the 16-seat restaurant will feature three unique dining areas.

It starts off with guests entering the living room, being welcomed with champagne or another drink and snacks such as a foie gras “doughnut” with pineapple and sesame, and a wagyu tart with truffle dashi and onion.

The next step is the savory counter or dinner – this portion features menu items such as king crab rice and Hokkaido sea urchin.

Lastly, it is the pastry parlor area where guests can relax and enjoy sweet treats such as a chocolate soufflé tart with green coffee ice cream.
