Origine

Perfectly at home in this stylish, understated interior, Japanese chef Tomofumi Uchimura, who learned the ropes at Lameloise, rolls out his consummate mastery of Gallic techniques, peppered with discreet Japanese touches. An example: Atlantic cod in a miso crust and umami-flavoured gingerbread with a cauliflower tempura, tarama, bergamot lemon, peanuts and ginger. This fan of Burgundy produce elegantly exalts local ingredients, including organic veg from a Dijon market gardener, Charolais beef, Auxonne saffron, snails from next-door Jura… Nothing is off limits for the chef as long as the quality is up to the mark, particularly when it comes to fresh seafood. A subtle, surgically precise culinary repertory with a particularly enticing veggie menu. Fine wine bin.
