In this small restaurant in Ostend, you can watch how Japanese haute cuisine is created.
Head chef Masaru Oae has a knack for adapting Japanese haute cuisine to European tastes. Since 2021, he has been serving his regularly changing seven- or nine-course menus in a rather inconspicuous building in Ostend according to the omakase principle: chef Masaru Oae alone decides what is served. This earned the restaurant its first star just nine months after opening.
Since then, it has been difficult to get one of the 22 seats in the small restaurant. We particularly recommend the seats at the bar, where you can watch from the front row as Masaru Oae prepares each course with great dexterity - and extremely sharp knives! - with great dexterity - and extremely sharp knives! By the way: here you can even get star cuisine to take away in the "Masa Box".
