itsuka

With a name that reflects a desire to cherish ingredients, producers and the culinary craft of Chinese cuisine, ‘itsuka’ embodies a spirit of care and respect. Classic Chinese dishes are thoughtfully prepared using Japanese ingredients. The appetiser platter presents a medley from land and sea, enhanced with house-made doubanjiang and mala sauce to create a nuanced interplay of bold and delicate flavours. Sichuan cuisine is guided by the philosophy of ‘one dish, one character’ and ‘for a hundred dishes, a hundred flavours’, while Taiwanese cuisine is celebrated for drawing out the natural depth of its ingredients. Drawing on experience with both traditions, the chef presents a prix fixe menu that reveals a personal culinary journey.
