The philosophy

A modern ode to Japanese heritage

From Chef Aeron Choo — time-honoured Japanese technique, a forward palate. Each seasonal course is served on tableware crafted for the dish, with grower's Champagne and sake pairings chosen to match.

The Kappou counter, set for service

The counter

A counter for twenty-one

No dining room — only the counter, a single unbroken line of hinoki. No menu at the table; you watch the knife, the flame, the plating, and the chef watches you.

Seafood-forward and led by the season, each course is served the moment it is meant to be eaten.

The room

Seventy-two seasons

Designed by Kato Yusuke around Japan's seventy-two micro-seasons — a warm, low-lit space with the repose of a speakeasy, hidden on the second level of Robinson Road.
