This is 2* cooking and the meal was infintely more exciting than the 3* and 5 times more expensive meal I had at l'Osier on Wednesday (although TBF that was for dinner).
Can't recommend it highly enough.
That was me

I agree about the value and beauty of the lunch - I had dinner there first, then had to return b/c it was soooo good and was able to get a lunch reservation - where I discovered that the dishes were the same just a few fewer courses (which actually fits my appetite better). I'm just afraid by the time I get back to Tokyo the stars and cost will have escalated (altho they deserve it).
