It has to be noted that the interior of the restaurant is designed with the wood structure of an ancient house from the Nagano area in Japan. The beams were transported carefully from there and set in the restaurant to create a feeling that harmoniously mixes the old and the modern Japan. The place claims to be French/Californian. But we decided that is more Japanese/Spanish/French/Californian.
It was great. Wonderful homemade breads: mini danish, chocolate croissant, etc. Go with the Jamón Serrano starter presented like a Maki, filled with perfectly balanced lettuce, quail egg and dressing. Kurobuta pork (Milanesa) was excellent and cooked to perfection, the chicken was unexpectedly moist with a diced veggie salad to die for.
Dessert was to write home about: sesame seed mousse with coconut cream: Yummmmyyyyyyyy!!! It was $25 per person, but it beats any brunch we've tried. Food and ambience are the result of a well thought out plan to please both the palate and the eye.
