Food from Quebec lands in Tokyo

The Four Seasons Hotel Tokyo at Marunouchi is holding a Quebecoise cuisine fair at the ekki Bar & Grill restaurant through July 14.

The hotel hosts executive chef Charles-Emmanuel Pariseau from Le Local restaurant in Montreal. The province of Quebec was populated by many immigrants from France, making for an interesting mix of Canadian and French cooking styles.

Pariseau, known as a trendsetter of Quebecoise cuisine, will present special dishes such as braised lamb shoulder with cabbage, milk-fed piglet porchetta , lobster ravioli, and chocolate and maple taffy.

Also, guests can enjoy wines paired with each dish from Norman Hardie winery in Canada. Hardie was once a sommelier and restaurant manager at a Four Seasons hotel.

A three-course lunch (or brunch on weekends) costs ¥3,900, while a three-course dinner costs ¥6,800 and a four-course dinner ¥8,800.

A la carte is also available. Prices include tax but there is an additional service charge of 10 percent.

The most beautiful train map in the world? « tokyo handsUp

We at TokyoHandsup are constantly looking for ways to show our affection for Tokyo, so when we found this awesome map of the Tokyo railways our hearts melted on the spot! This looks great in any apartment (ours included!), but there is an added coolness to this map, it doubles up as a calender!

It even includes cute small post-it stickers to mark those all important dates, like  ”Next trip to Tokyo” and “Studio Apartment Band @ Ageha” (more on Studio Apartment in a later article house music fans!)
