Ichika – Japanese
Ichika invites guests into a refined sanctuary where the rhythmic precision of the kitchen transforms treasures like marbled A5 Wagyu and velvet-smooth Hokkaido Uni into a choreographed prix fixe journey. Each course is a masterclass in balance, perfectly paired with an exquisite library of sakes that range from the ethereal Dassai 23 to the bold, floral complexity of Tenko 40.
