This event will feature the esteemed champagne "KRUG" and two-Michelin-starred Chef Kazuhito Nishida.
A Night Where the Artistry of a Two-Michelin-Starred Chef for 10 Consecutive Years Meets "KRUG"
For this exclusive event, Chef Kazuhito Nishida, supervisor of "Saki" and a chef who has continuously earned two Michelin stars for 10 years at his sushi restaurant in Singapore, will visit Japan. Nishida, a Michelin-starred sushi chef and Krug Ambassador, will present a unique 14-course Kappo menu that harmonizes with four types of Krug, including rare vintages, offering a "one-night-only gastronomic experience."
Only eight counter seats are available. Enjoy an unparalleled moment overlooking the Tokyo Bay night view from a prime location, where Nishida's delicate craftsmanship, breathing life into ingredients, and Krug's complex aromas intertwine.
A New Experience: Krug x Kappo, Enjoyed at an 8-Seat Counter
This course features carefully selected luxurious ingredients, offering a pairing menu where each ingredient's umami and Krug's individuality harmonize.
The resilient texture and prominent sweetness of Ise lobster, and the concentrated oceanic flavors of sea urchin and crab, are layered with the profound aging of Krug, creating an extraordinary symphony of richness. Furthermore, the champagne's refined acidity beautifully tightens the rich fattiness of tuna, spreading a vivid sensation across the palate. Nishida, who deeply understands both ingredients and Krug, meticulously unravels the multifaceted charms of each cuvée, creating a blissful moment where complex aromas and ingredients elevate each dish.
The champagnes gracing your glass include the elusive 'Krug 2000,' aged for over 20 years, 'Krug Grande Cuvée 173ème Édition,' composed of 150 base wines, the flamboyant 'Krug Rosé 29ème Édition,' and 'Krug 2013,' reflecting the individuality of a single year—a total of four types.
Indulge in a unique gastronomic experience where champagne and modern Kappo cuisine merge at a counter overlooking the spectacular Tokyo Bay view.
