RyuGin
What better location to showcase the wonders of Japan than steps from the Imperial Palace? With the Japanese flag emblazoned on his shirt, Seiji Yamamoto expresses his respect for spirituality and Japanese ingredients. The chef notes that ryori, the word for cuisine, consists of two characters meaning ‘discernment’ and ‘measurement.’ Yamamoto innovates from a scientific perspective, based on clear theoretical grounds. The restaurant’s name derives from a proverb: Ryu ginzureba kumo okoru: ’When the dragon sings, clouds form.’ The ‘Dragon of Hibiya’ is leading a Japanese culinary movement for a new age.
