## Omakase Summer Dinner Course
Shangri-La Tokyo, known for its heartfelt hospitality, will debut a new Omakase Summer Dinner Course at its 28th-floor Italian restaurant, Piacere, starting Tuesday, June 2.
This dinner course is inspired by the passage "In summer, the night" from Sei Shonagon's classical work, *The Pillow Book*. Motif-driven by the scenes of summer nights such as fireflies, the moon, and rain, the course offers a cool and poetic experience featuring carefully selected domestic ingredients.
- **Garden (Amuse-bouche):** Hokkaido sea urchin and brioche croutons nestled in Hayama eggshells, topped with a light foam of Hayama egg and mascarpone, accented with seaweed.
- **Fireflies (Appetizer):** Marinated Japanese sardine with fresh herbs, accompanied by colorful gnocchi evoking Genovese style.
- **Moon (Appetizer):** Bluefin tuna carpaccio paired with anchovy and caper puree, featuring a soft-boiled quail egg yolk as the moon, with wasabi adding depth.
- **Pastoral (Lasagna):** Rich lasagna with Bolognese sauce, mozzarella, marinated fruit tomatoes, homemade pasta, white sauce, and Yokohama beef.
- **Rain (Fish):** Grilled eel with Kinome, Yukitsubaki chips, and watercress, finished with a sauce poured tableside to mimic the delicate sound of summer rain.
- **Feast (Main):** Milanese-style black pork cutlet coated in Parmigiano and breadcrumbs, paired with black olives, mustard, and Amatriciana sauce, topped with Miyazaki caviar.
- **Night Flower (Dessert):** A black Vacherin representing a flower blooming at night, with Kamakura chocolate cream and cherry compote inside a black meringue, served with black beer ice cream and beer foam.
Enjoy this leisurely experience in a tranquil setting away from the bustle of the city, feeling the charm of Japan's four seasons and the atmosphere of a summer night.
