This Little Tokyo Spot Is Full of Surprises! 🍳

By day, it’s a traditional Japanese breakfast spot. By night, it transforms into an elegant French prix-fixe restaurant—talk about a dual personality! Azay, a French-Japanese fusion gem in Little Tokyo, completely won me over. I haven’t tried their Japanese breakfast yet (though now I’m curious!), but their evening prix-fixe menu is what truly captivated me. The seasonal menu runs $72 per person, with a +$45 wine pairing option. It includes a starter, main, and dessert—with two choices per category, so my dining buddy and I got to try everything! 🥗 Starters: Strawberry salad & tuna crudo—both delicious, but the strawberry salad stole my heart. 🍽️ Mains: Black seabass & Wagyu beef steak, served with rice. Both dishes were thoughtfully crafted with unique, unexpected flavors. 🍮 Desserts: Soy-yuzu panna cotta & dark chocolate mousse—a sweet, satisfying finish. The whole experience felt seamless—traditional yet modern, French technique with Japanese soul. The atmosphere subtly blends Eastern and French touches, like “Tokyo wrapped in Paris.” I’m already planning my next visit—maybe for that Japanese breakfast next time! 🌅🍚 📍 Azay 226 1st St, Los Angeles, CA 90012 #FoodInspo #LADiscovery #LAEats #LittleTokyoLA#FrenchJapaneseFusion #LADateNight #PrixFixePerfection
