Chef x - when two of the World’s Best Pastry Chefs come together!

To mark its 10th anniversary, hosted an unforgettable collaboration with the world famous of 3*. Renowned for his creative and poetic desserts that weave in memory, perfume, texture and storytelling, Jordi Roca transforms sweets into immersive sensory experiences. With training in both savory cuisine and classic pastry, René Frank is known for his innovative vision of transforming pastry into a standalone fine dining genre. Though the two chefs bring distinct styles to the table, their shared passion to push culinary boundaries shone through in the 14-course tasting menu. Highlights included the playful Coco Rallado with shaved coconut from Jordi’s “head”, the breathtaking plate of Flowers, the iconic Caviar Popsicle, the whimsical Fluffy Duck, and the aromatic Lactic dessert. The evening closed with a fun “booming” surprise that left guests buzzing - a truly memorable night celebrating innovation, mastery, and the joy of a sweet collaboration!

A sweet adventure at - Germany’s first and only two-Michelin-starred restaurant inspired by desserts! Helmed by World’s Best Pastry Chef, CODA is renowned for its non-conformist concept of applying patisserie techniques to both sweet and savory dishes. The team craft progressive dishes without any refined sugar - all sweetness comes naturally from fruits, vegetables, and other ingredients. The result is a tasting menu of beautiful creations that look like desserts but deliver surprising sweet and savory combinations. Included in the menu is a thoughtful pairing of complex cocktail concoctions. Standouts included the raclette waffle, BBQ apple with chicken skin, dike cheese tart, and the iconic caviar popsicle with Jerusalem artichoke - an absolute must-try. Another highlight was the kitchen tour near the end of the meal where we learned about their chocolate making process from bean to bar. Don’t come expecting a conventional fine dining evening - CODA is perfect for adventurous diners seeking something truly different and unique.

A special journey to 3* in the Asturias region of northern Spain! Nestled in the family’s childhood home, Chef and his siblings continue their parents’ legacy with deeply personal and contemporary Asturian cuisine. The restaurant highlights the region’s bounty - from the Cantabrian Sea to the Picos de Europa mountains - using pristine local ingredients with creativity and respect for tradition.

We had the single current tasting menu “Nordeste: El Cachucho” - named after the powerful northeast wind that dries fish and cures meats in the region. The lunch started very strong but lost a little momentum toward the end. Still, it was a very strong experience overall with exceptional service. My absolute favorite dish was the brilliant white asparagus served three ways (fermented, raw, and roasted) with caviar and borage flowers - an ingenious celebration of simplicity and seasonality.

First time staying overnight in Axpe and it was at - located right across from Txispa. The position couldn’t have been better for our visits to both Etxebarri and Txispa. The charming boutique hotel is housed in a beautifully restored 18th-century farmhouse. It sits on a hill in the Atxondo Valley offering panoramic views of Mount Anboto and surrounding landscapes. The rooms are on the smaller side with no air conditioning, but the excellent breakfast served in the gorgeous glasshouse was worth waking up to.

What a fun experience at 1*! Available only on Friday and Saturday evenings, guests enter through the back door into the kitchen for a casual standing yakitori omakase. Paired with a selection of sake, wine and champagne, the food carefully balances Japanese yakitori tradition with local Basque elements. Favorites included the flavorful chicken innards, ingenious chicken wing stuffed with fresh chorizo, and ramen with the best housemade noodles. The vibe was warm and lively - eating here is like a gathering with friends as we chatted with around the grill. Don’t miss this special experience when in the area!

Follow me to in Axpe where Chef artfully fuses Japanese technique and sensibility with the finest Basque ingredients. The name “Txispa” means “spark” in Basque - a perfect reflection of the wood-fired cooking and creative energy that define the restaurant. Located just 200 meters from Asador Etxebarri where Chef Tetsuro spent a decade as sous chef, comparisons are inevitable. Yet Txispa stands firmly on its own with its unique offering apart from a few Basque classics such as the red prawns and txuleta. Housed in a beautifully restored 400-year-old farmhouse, much of the produce comes from their own garden, cared for by a dedicated Japanese farmer. The restaurant grows over 90% of its vegetables onsite, allowing the menu to shift beautifully with the seasons.

Our meal began in the lounge with aperitif and snack before moving into the kitchen where Chef Tetsuro quickly established himself as an enthusiastic storyteller. After a quick tour of the kitchen and a few exquisite bites such as fresh teardrop pea pods and a Basque “sushi”, we settled into the main dining room for the rest of the tasting menu. Many dishes prominently highlighted the day’s vegetables, with more than 30 different varieties used across the menu. The desserts - with the sakura flan in particular - were outstanding. Ultimately, what makes Txispa special is not just the outstanding food and refined technique but the chef’s own personality shining through.

A date with Mount Fuji 🗻

A most delightful stay at #HoshinoyaFuji - a glamping resort overlooking the beautiful Lake Kawaguchi and Mt. Fuji! I have always wanted to stay here and we were lucky enough to come on a day with fantastic weather. All of the cabins have unobstructed views of Mt. Fuji and also a balcony which is furnished with a fireplace and kotatsu (a low heated table with futon over it). Rooms are minimalistic so the focus can be on the surrounding majestic nature.

Access from Tokyo is easy with plenty of trains and buses that will take you to Kawaguchiko Station. From there, simply take a taxi to the reception area located at the foot of the hill. After checking in and picking a backpack for use during the stay, guests are escorted up the hill to the resort by jeep and transported into a luxury camping playground that is Hoshinoya Fuji.

Swipe to the last photo to see my happy place with the kotatsu - an ingenious invention for winter!
