La Peche

We tried many times to book, got lucky last Saturday! The staff were attentive. The service bread was nice and buttery, the salad with egg side dish was delicious. My main was pork, hubby had seafood mix. My pork was a bit underdone, it would have been nicer if it were slow-cooked or braised. Hubby's main was much better between the two. Would have been stellar with less salt and more bread to soak the sauce. The queen was the cheese cake laden generously with almond. It should be named almond tarte with cheese lacing. My creme brulee was a disappointment, too much blowtorching of sugar maybe that further cooked the custard. Sorry to say, my creme brulee is way better. Shall we come again, why not.. Maybe next time we'll have the lamb which we eyed with envy served at the table behind us!

Lunch menu with five different main dishes is a good value for your money. Mixed salad & the fish main dish were very good. Bread was a bit disappointing, unfortunately not a real crispy French baguette. I enjoyed the background music from the French radio station Radio Nostalgie pushing oldies and goldies from the 1980s.

Very worthy of the Michelin Bib Gourmand listing. We had a fantastic three course dinner to celebrate American Thanksgiving. Three courses is ¥5000, with a few menu options having an additional supplement. The onion soup, fritto misto, steak frites, and roast chicken with frites were delicious. The tiramisu and creme brûlée was the perfect finisher. Reservations or calling ahead is highly recommended. We went on a Thursday night and called ahead at 5, they told us there were quite busy and couldn’t seat us till 8:30. There is no English menu- the menu comes in Japanese and French. But should be easy enough to read if you have a understanding of French cuisine. The menu is chock full of hearty French staples such as steak frites, duck confit, beef bourguignon, etc. Portion sizes are very large and you won’t leave hungry. The interior also transports you to France, and there are a couple of outdoor tables for when the weather is nice.
