ESqUISSE

I like this restaurant the most. Considered the value for the price, and the details. It turns out that the chef really wants to provide the best service to his customers. All the food was cooked to perfection, I really liked it. We went there for lunch and will try again for dinner. The service was also very good. 10 out of 10.

The French food here is very authentic. The black truffles are delicious. You can tell at first glance that it is high-end and drier, but it tastes very fresh. French food in Japan seems to be even better than in France.

Esquisse is located at 5-4-6Royal Crystal Ginza, 9F, Ginza, Chuo-ku, Tokyo 104-0061. I have tried 5 or 6 Michelin restaurants in Tokyo. So far, this restaurant is my favorite. Considering the value for money, as well as the details. It turns out that the chef really wants to provide the best service to his customers. All the food is cooked to perfection and I like it very much. We went there for lunch and will try again for dinner. The service is also very good. 10 out of 10.

The chef has sensitively and delicately integrated Japanese elements into French cooking, using not only the ingredients commonly used in Japanese cuisine, but also Japanese techniques such as grilling and plating to create a new fusion. After wandering around the Ginza shopping district, it is undoubtedly a delight to walk into this trendy restaurant for a meal.

Michelin two-star French restaurant, Tabelog 2017 Gold Award and 2018 Silver Award, Tabelog Ginza Best French Restaurant, with an overall score of 4.56 points. Chef Lionel Beccat pursues simplicity, just as "simplicity is the ultimate sophistication", Lionel wants to return to the basics. The menu simply lists the ingredients, unlike Longyin or L'Effervescence, which hides mysteries, but the chef emphasizes the rigor of the cook and presents the ultimate cuisine. This time, the lunch reservation was arranged by the window with excellent lighting. Outside the window are high-end shops and large billboards, and the warmth is the perfect foreshadowing. There are 9 dishes in total, including appetizers and desserts. Champagne was ordered before the meal, small baguettes were served during the meal, and dessert set was served after the meal. First course: Sea urchin, apple, mushroom The three-ingredient mousse, the freshness of sea urchin, the rich fragrance of mushroom, and the freshness of apple blend into one, instantly opening the taste buds Second course: Pumpkin, salmon roe, smoked milk A very delicate dish, but a little greasy Third course: Turnip from Kyoto, fermented cabbage, white truffle White truffle with Kyoto radish, it has the meaning of late autumn in the ancient capital Fourth course: Cod milt, caper, chanterelles Cod milt, caper buds, chanterelles, as a southwesterner, it can be said that I have tasted the taste of childhood, which is probably the commonality between French and Chinese cuisine Fifth course: Grouperfish, grape yeast, ginkgo biloba You can see the meaning of life, but the cooking taste is not very soft, and it is not as comfortable as L'Effervescence with the same elements Sixth course: Spiny lobster, tomato, sesame leaf The taste is a little heavier Seventh course: Venison, fir tree, coffee Super tender Hokkaido (seems to be...) venison Eighth course: Grapefruit, KEIKACHINSHU, mint A refreshing agent after the main course, it is really wonderful to put mint as ice cream in it Ninth course: Quince, orange, liquorice It should have been a signature orange dessert, but because of the oolong "being" allergic to orange, the dessert became espresso poured soufflé, which felt like winning the jackpot Overall, ESqUISSE gave this Tokyo Michelin tour a good start, and the overall experience was very good. From the comfortable and soft feeling of the restaurant, the tableware and utensils that perfectly blend with the chef's cooking concept, and the dishes that pay attention to seasons, integration and balance, it can be said that the trip is worthwhile~

The southern French style in the E store is mainly based on refined silver and white. Outside the large glass window is the street of Ginza. The natural light is good during lunch time, and the atmosphere is created by dimmed lights and candlelight at dinner. In addition to the main meal, the set meal also includes a glass of champagne, mineral water, coffee or tea. Before the meal, the waiter took a small note to inform the menu of the night, and then waited for the food to appear. The overall feeling is that the plating is not fancy. A lot of effort was spent on the SAUCE, sour and salty, very thorough. Unlike some restaurants, the appetizers are amazing, and then the surprises are reduced all the way. This restaurant is quite balanced from appetizers to main dishes. Whether it is Ise lobster, Kyushu Wagyu or pigeon, they are all delicious. The only thing that is a bit unacceptable is probably the goat milk sorbet. After the meal, a small snack was also sent, but unfortunately I left it at the check-in counter the next day. I only remembered it after getting on the plane and felt deeply regretful.

This is a two-star Michelin restaurant in a prime location in Ginza. The lighting inside the restaurant is dim and the decoration is too simple. The outside is made of glass, so it has an open feel. You need to make a reservation in advance for dinner. The set meal costs 20,000 yen and the set meal with drinks for two costs 30,000 yen. The tableware used is all shipped from France.
