Last month I had the pleasure of travelling to Japan with ANA, Japans largest 5-Star airline, to explore the world of luxury food and craft. @allnipponairways The journey started with an award winning Business Class experience. Fine dining in my own private space at 30,000 feet. Arriving refreshed and replenished, over the next 7 days I explored the best of food and craft in Tokyo and Kyoto. Join me on my culinary journey and discover hidden authentic gems to help inspire your dream trip to Japan with ANA.

Just a kilometer or so away from Bilbao Airport lies Spain’s best-kept secret, Asador Taskas @asador_taskas. Although this seafood temple may have a surprising location, its stellar ingredients and impeccable grilling techniques merit a special trip not only from the airport arrivals. Whether it’s superb Galician clams, giant langoustines, or the king of all fish, Cantabrian El Rey, Taskas owner Ángel Leon sources only the best ingredients from the Spanish seas. Here, time stands still, and you are transported to the ultimate seafood and ingredient temple, without any doubts, among the best in the Basque Country. In the pictures – Squid filled with caramelized onions – Anchovies – Home marinated salmon with orange sauce and black salt – Green peppers – Grilled cigala – Magnificent El Rey fish

I am very happy to be part of Ura Miami, the first overseas opening of Tokyo Sushi legend, Hidefumi Namba @hide.namba . “Ura,” which means “back” or “reverse side” in Japanese, is a unique project and members only club in Miami opening this fall, that will include a ten-seat counter dining room by Sushi Namba (headed by Namba’s senior apprentice Yuma Takanashi) a Japanese garden for art, pause and reflection, and a listening room centered on decompression. In Ura’s listening room, Shunta Yamakawa, the master mixologist from Tokyo’s Bar Cocktailante Oboro, will craft his fruit-focused cocktails alongside a bespoke analog system designed by Soundlux Audio @soundluxaudio. Namba-san, whose Tokyo restaurant holds the Tabelog Gold Medal Award, the highest accolade by Japan’s most prestigious restaurant guide, is known for his obsession with rice temperature and texture, which he adjusts according to various types of fish, clams, and crustaceans. His dedication to top-quality ingredients is also evident in his choice of fish, which he personally selects every morning from the Toyosu market in Tokyo. At Ura Miami, all the ingredients will come from the same suppliers as those in Tokyo and will be flown in three times a week. The sake and wine offerings will include some of the most exclusive sakes from Japan, while the stunning space, featuring stone, wood, and concrete, is designed by the Colombian design and architecture firm, 5 Sōlidos. Ura members will also be granted exclusive access to the refferal-only Sushi Namba and Cocktailante Oboro in Tokyo as well as travel assistance for their time in Japan. Opening in fall 2024.
