From the May 2008 Food & Wine Go List
Chefs around the world have been making pilgrimages to Seiji Yamamoto’s clubby molecular gastronomy restaurant in the rejuvenated Roppongi district. The chef silkscreens edible newsprint onto a plate using squid ink, and turns liquids into slushy ice with a technique called superfreezing.
We loved: Hamo (pike eel) soup with matsutake mushrooms in homemade eel stock.
Insider tip: Dining is prix fixe, but an à la carte menu is available after 8:30 p.m.
