50 best Tokyo restaurants according to Tabelog users

Here are 50 best restaurants in Tokyo as of today, according to Tabelog.com users. What I like about this site, that the “best of” results are never static and usually reflect the seasonal trends of eating out in Japan. They are also translated in English now.

Victor’s Gourmet – Restaurant Schloss Berg

My meal in pictures at 3 Michelin starred Victor’s Gourmet-Restaurant Schloss Berg back in January, where classically trained chef Christian Bau marries traditional techniques with South-East Asian and Japanese flavours. Fusion Asian might be not the newest trend, but Christian Bau executes it with such an elegance, that you cannot but…

Bar Gen Yamamoto

Like Matt Goulding wrote in his book Rice, Noodle,Fish, “Japan is the land of a million shokunin, dedicated artisans who bless this country with their quiet pursuit of perfect”. One of the key reasons why ingredients and food in Japan taste so much better is specialization, choosing just one task…

The Ledbury

The Ledbury

The Ledbury

From my experience, 2 Michelin stars in London often translate to one Michelin star in Paris. The Ledbury is an exception though. Brett Graham is an incredibly talented chef and has succeeded to maintain quality and consistency year after year. My last week’s meal below. The Ledbury 127 Ledbury Rd,…

The Palomar

What is beautiful about Israeli cuisine is that it is so diverse because of the different cultures brought by the Jewish diaspora.

Bonhams

Bonhams

For me, one of the most promising restaurants in London at the moment is Bonhams, located inside Bonhams auction house. “Promising”, because despite chef’s Tom Kemble international experience (he has worked at Hedone in London and Faviken in Sweden), I think he still has a big potential to grow. I’ve…

Tetou

Tetou

The legend of “Tetou” or Ernest Cirio began when during the First World War he enlisted in the Navy and got wounded. There he became a private cook of the admiral and had an opportunity to open a restaurant in New York, but homesickness was stronger than the prospect of…

Hoppers

Hoppers

Hoppers, traditional Sri Lankan staple food eaten for breakfast, are bowl-shaped pancakes made of rice flour, coconut milk and spices. They are the central dish at Hoppers in London, which focuses on revisited Sri Lankan and Tamil Nadu cuisines. The place accepts walk-ins only, so the waiting time can be…
