Roppongi Kappou Ukai🍽

The first Tokyo restaurant I’d recommend is Ukai Tei in Roppongi, a teppanyaki place 🍽️. I’d been dreaming about the teppanyaki I tried in Fukuoka four years ago, so I decided to give it another go in Tokyo 😎.

Ukai is a well-known teppanyaki chain in Tokyo—the Ginza location was fully booked a month ahead, and I heard the Roppongi branch had just one seat left. Even though I hesitated a bit, I went for Roppongi… and it turned out to be such a good choice! 👍🏼 The whole Roppongi restaurant is made up of private teppanyaki rooms, and the service, the atmosphere, even the “performance” were absolutely perfect.

The manager recommended Chateau Filhot, which suited our taste so well—I even discovered my new favorite drink of all time there…

It’s the perfect spot to kick off a fine dining journey in Tokyo, and now I’d love to try the Ginza branch too 🤍.Weiterlesen
