The restaurant of Hiroyuki Sakai, the famed ‘Iron Chef’ of French cuisine. On the show, resplendent in red chef’s uniform and with a pear in one hand, Sakai brought excitement to living rooms. At one time Sakai dazzled the port town of Rochelle with his ‘French cuisine à la kaiseki’. Japanese elements such as water shield and pike conger are served on artisanal plates and garnished with seasonal leaves. Bread made with rice flour is the perfect complement to sake.
