A Luxurious Collaboration Event with Alain Ducasse in Japan: A Special One-Night-Only Dinner Featuring French and Japanese Cuisine Highlighting the Flavors of Kyoto in Autumn.

On Monday, October 21, 2024, at “MUNI ALAIN DUCASSE,” we will host a special one-night-only collaboration event, “FOUR HANDS DINNER,” with “Tempura Matsu.”

“Tempura Matsu,” located in the precincts of Matsuo Taisha Shrine in Kyoto, was originally founded as a tempura restaurant in 1976. Thanks to the culinary curiosity of the founder’s father, Mr. Shunichi Matsuno, the restaurant evolved to offer a wide variety of Japanese dishes, and today it is widely known as one of Kyoto’s most popular Japanese restaurants. Chef Alessandro from MUNI ALAIN DUCASSE invites you to indulge in the delights of Kyoto’s autumn.

Alain Ducasse will be coming to Japan for this event, and on the day, both chefs will personally welcome guests. We invite you to enjoy a memorable evening that will leave a lasting impression on both your body and soul.

Delight in authentic Kaiseki cuisine that incorporates the seasonal flavors of Unzen, surrounded by nature, and the seasonal ingredients from Nagasaki, enclosed by the sea and mountains.
