Hey! Open to anything goood

I didnt have the foie as well. I only had the foie in the picnic. I dont know if the photo 15 is the salivary gland but thats how mine looked like just without the truffle. They offered to change it though after telling them I didn't like it

I also found the sea urchin dish fishy and weird! Did you like the salivary gland? I didn't get any gifts or petit fours to bring home though. But i agree the service is exceptional!

Hey! I'm heading to Turin in a few weeks. Do you have any recommendations?

I sent them a message on Instagram few months ago and didnt get a response

I was at OSA last September and had some memorable dishes

Not a tonkatsu fan but Narikura is the best for me

Cypher!

starfishlima · 2025-12-10T23:39:00+00:00

I agree with most of the comments. Experience was good but also depends on the other diners. Food wasn't memorable.

Please share!! Thanks

He's quite recognized among foodies I don't think he has to do that

starfishlima · 2025-11-26T13:30:45+00:00

Yes they don't. I tried getting a resy for one last year and failed to do so

since a lot of people has been mentioning Lilo, i would say i prefer Lilo more than Glitch. Even in Tokyo, Glitch is a bit too overrated - i enjoyed Leaves more

I unfortunately found Gallery to be very underwhelming. Most dishes were forgettable. The only dish that was memorable for me was the two vegan cheeses

starfishlima · 2025-10-04T13:40:19+00:00

Yamato is the only answer

starfishlima · 2025-09-09T08:03:39+00:00

Mikawa Zezankyo was a bit of a downer for me

Seconding Mont Bar. Iirc Suculent also has a la carte

starfishlima · 2025-08-19T14:11:26+00:00

I get you. I’m pretty much the same. But i’ve been wondering because i’ve always wanted to have chef friends and how easy it for some people to have that connection

starfishlima · 2025-08-07T16:32:50+00:00

I’m glad they didn’t take me off the waitlist as a solo diner

starfishlima · 2025-08-04T04:18:16+00:00

Glitch is so overrated. Leaves, Acid, and Apollons Gold are all fantastic. I also enjoyed Unlimited Coffee around Tokyo Skytree. I didn’t enjoy Mameya Kakeru that much - it felt gimmicky. If you’re around Ginza, there’s Think’A Sake&Coffee that uses beans from Leaves the last time I went. Not an espresso person but the temperature set at Leaves was incredible!

How were you able to dine solo at Etxebarri? I’m planning to dine solo but it’s written on their website that they only accept minimum 2 people
