ARVINARD, which is located directly above Shirokane-Takanaewa Station, Tokyo Metro Namboku Line, offers organic vegetables, other ingredients from contract farmers in Nagano and selected various naturally-matured meat dishes served by one of the top French chef Shimada. This restaurant was just opened as of this July after his previous popular restaurant "Irreel'' in Ebisu was closed in February 2010.
Amuse-gueule was organic radishes with bagna cauda source and whipped butter with cumin. They are so fresh!
ARVINARD mainly serves healthy nutritious dishes and uses ingredients called super foods. Baguette was also nutrient-rich made from whole wheat.
Fresh vegetables and other foodstuffs are delivered from contract farmers in Nagano for the day use. Terrine with Salmon and organic vegetables as shown above photo is the speciality of this restaurant. I have had the same one before at "Irreel".
Next hors d'oeuvre was Nappa cabbage consomme soup. The cooking style of chef Shimada using a plenty of fresh vegetables has not changed since former restaurant "Irreel".
The concept of this restaurant is to serve specialized delicious tasted meats which are the same as in the France. As you well know, autumn is the season for Gibier in Europe. In the same way, here, they served selected Siberian venison from Hokkaido, which was really juicy! It's my choice.
The other main course was pork with baked Swiss Gruyere cheese and seasonal mushrooms. Mushrooms from Nagano, which is my favorite, were also served on my plate of main course. Yummy!
This desert which was hibiscus gelee served with a scoop of verbena ice cream and a variety of berries which are strawberries, blackcurrants and raspberries, is exactly condensed in nutritious and healing fruits and herbs, such as verbena, hibiscus and berries called super foods. It was just beauty desert!
If you love herbal tea, you will have many options. They showed me the sample of eight kinds of herbs and then, I picked lavender tea with honey. It's absolutely-relaxed!
Woody interior accessories can be provided you cozy, chill-out and relaxed atmosphere. In spite of just-opened restaurant a few months ago, this restaurant is already popular. Advanced reservations required.
above the station.
My evaluation : ★★★★☆
