Located in a small industry environment not a place where you would expect such a great Japanese Restaurant-Deli-Grocery, but within a short bicycle ride from the heart of Aix en Provence. Industrial interior design, table and counter seating available, section with Japanese deli-grocery items (take-away) and Japanese operating supplies Welcome was friendly and we were seated immediately From the menu we selected one Menu Irodorizen (which included Misoshiro, Agenasu Dashi Shoyu, Edamame, Potimarron Dengaku, Kinoko Daikon Gomadare, Nigiri Sushi and Maki, Sashimi, Rice and Mini patisserie of the season.....all served on one tray and very well presented on interesting chinaware.
