Experience

A luminous dialogue between cuisine, sound, and light

Guided by Chef Elodie Marceau, each service is a tightly choreographed journey. Dishes arrive in waves, accompanied by scent, sound, and stories that trace provenance from Paris to Tokyo. Sommelier-curated pairings amplify every note.

Seasonal immersion

Menus evolve with the tide, market, and moon cycle. Every service reimagines the narrative of the night.
