Hidden Gem : Michelin Starred Japanese Tea House in Paris 🍵 From start to finish, the meal at Chakaiseki akiyoshi is a peaceful & delicious experience where the chef & his wife Misuzu expertly guide you through a traditional tea & matcha ceremony, sake pairings from many regions of Japan, and carefully made Japanese food prepared right in front of you. I especially enjoyed: 🔥 Bintan charcoal grilled mackerel on shiso leaf with nori and yuzu 🍚 Rice with six kinds of mushroom, chives and dashi 🍶 The Sake pairing - I never knew how good Sake could be until this pairing! 🐚 Scallops shinjō in clear dashi broth, chrysanthemum, diced turnip 🐟 Charcoal grilled Dorade Royale, Satsuma-style sweet potato tempura, karasumi powder 🍵 The ending matcha ceremony - it felt like a meditation in slience that we all took part of. I loved being able to pick my own cup and on top of it all, the matcha was the best I’ve ever had 🎎 The amazing attentive service from the whole staff, explaining each dish and Japanese custom in detail It’s no wonder they got a Michelin star only 1 year after opening! Definitely one of my most memorable meals in awhile & highly recommended next time you’re in Paris 🥐🎌❤️ Chakaiseki Akiyoshi 59 Rue Letellier, 75015 Paris, France #parisguide #parismonamour #parisfood #pariseats #parisrestaurant
