Getting a taste for it
Dining out in Japan’s capital never ceases to raise the culinary bar. We’ve picked out three venues that serve to highlight the city’s eclectic mix.
Food & Drink
Must-visit venues, including an Italian-Japanese restaurant in east London, a canny vineyard close to Tokyo and a kitchen with French-Japanese flair in New York.
Tipping the scales
Kiyoshi Kimura splashes out to buy the first tuna of the year but the larger-than-life methods of Japan’s King of Tuna rely on getting the small details right.
Choux of a kind
Expat baker Morihide Yoshida believes the success of his Paris patisserie reflects the common culinary bond shared by Japan and France.
All you can eat
Expecting guests? Then you’ll want to impress them with something unique. You don’t have to spend hours in the kitchen.
Roll out the barrels
Don’t drink light wine with heavy food. Burgundy pairs perfectly with roast lamb. Ensure dessert wine is sweeter than your pudding or your mouth will pucker. Above all, experiment and explore.
Food & Drink
Two Swiss openings, a recipe from our in-house team and food finds from Japan to France. Tuck in.
Food for thought
Scant service in Scandinavia, obsolete kitchenware and what recipe books reveal about times past: our writers give tasty views on the topics that should matter to good hosts everywhere.
Pull up a chair
A Kiwi chef, a restaurant owner in Monaco and a design-shop duo in Ontario invite you into their abodes for some home-cooked goodness – with a liberal sprinkling of hospitality advice.
Friends in the north
You don’t need a city to start a business. A new generation of greenfield entrepreneurs are planting the seeds of clever companies in the likes of the East Neuk of Fife.
