In this bistro – with its light-coloured wood interior, like in the Land of the Rising Sun – Anthony Nguyen skillfully wields his fine blade to create a festival of umami flavours. On the menu, there’s of course the chef’s specialty: traditional sushi and maki, sculpted under the admiring eyes of the happy few at the counter. But there’s also a whole slew of delicious Japanese dishes (tempura, breaded oysters, grilled pork…), all of which is ethically sourced. A selection of subtle Japanese sakes and whiskies.
