MICHELIN Guide's Point Of View
Two Stars: Excellent cooking
Keisuke Mifune sums up the profundity of Japanese cuisine and its beauty in words in the expression ‘yugen’, which means ‘quiet beauty’ or ‘subtle yet profound’. Mifune dives deep into the beauty woven together by the arrangement of ceremonial spaces, cuisine and implements. His bowls of stewed items express that spirit. Into lacquer bowls Mifune pours dashi soup stock rich with the umami of kombu kelp. The harmony and satisfying finish of the stewed items create a deeply wholesome flavour. The chef’s attention to detail that guests don’t see is his mark of pride.
