Last Monday was Mewby’s birthday and every year, on her birthday, I take her out to a restaurant that must fit two criteria: it must be somewhere new (for us) and it must be super posh! This year it was Épice, a French restaurant in an old wooden machiya townhouse not far from the Imperial Palace Park.
It’s a pleasant spot, and the food could best be described as sumptuous. Épice prides itself on using local produce and the freshest vegetables from Ohara and Shiga. There is no a la carte however, so you have to choose a course menu and if you choose the more expensive dinner options you will need to book it in advance. Here are some pictures from our multi-course meal:
