Kitasando - Luxury Lunch Experience at Trattoria Tantavocca, Special Course of A5 Wagyu Beef with Lemon Pasta and Whipped Butter

trattoria tanta bocca

We revisited Trattoria Tanta Bocca, a popular Italian restaurant in Kita-sando, Tokyo, for lunch.
This time, we were served a special special course at a terrace-like seating area. It was an exceptional Italian lunch enjoyed in an open space while feeling the refreshing autumn breeze. All of the course meals exceeded our expectations, and we would like to introduce some of the dishes that were particularly impressive.

Course Content and Impressions

The richness of the pumpkin soup

The pumpkin soup served first was a warming dish perfect for the fall season. It was packed with the sweetness of rich pumpkin, and the subtle spices in the soup added depth to the flavor. This dish is a gorgeous way to start a meal.

Gorgeous appetizers

Next came a well-balanced appetizer plate. From prosciutto ham and bagna cauda to avocado and fresh seafood, it was a beautifully arranged and colorful plate. The refreshing avocado, rich prosciutto ham, and fresh flavors of the seafood were in perfect harmony with each other and whetted my appetite from the start.

Cream Pasta with Lemon and Garland Chrysanthemum

Cream pasta with lemon and garland chrysanthemum. The simple yet refreshing acidity of the lemon and the gentle flavor of the garland chrysanthemum enveloped the entire pasta dish. The light flavor and exquisite balance of the flavors of the ingredients was a delicious dish that drew me in as I continued to eat.

Main Dish: Charcoal-grilled A5 Japanese Black Beef

For the main dish, A5 Charcoal-grilled Japanese Black Beef was served.

The beef was characterized by its firm flavor and tenderness, and each bite was filled with the savory flavor of the charcoal grill, which brought a smile to the face of the chef. It was a luxurious experience to fully enjoy the taste of simply grilled Wagyu beef.

Delicious bread and whipped butter

The bread served with the meal was also impressive, especially the whipped butter to go with it. The butter was fluffy and light, melting immediately in the mouth. Eating it with the bread made it even more delicious.

Giant grape gelato for dessert

The final dessert was an assortment of tiramisu, bavaroise, and seasonal grape gelato. It was moderately sweet and light enough to be eaten even after a meal. The tiramisu melted softly in the mouth, the fresh flavor of the grape and the smooth texture of the gelato matched perfectly, and the not-too-sweet and refreshing aftertaste rounded out the entire course perfectly.

At the end.

Lunch time at Trattoria Tantabocca allowed us to fully enjoy the special and delicious Italian cuisine along with the comfortable atmosphere of the terrace. In particular, the char-grilled A5 Japanese black beef and the pasta with lemon and kujo leeks are unforgettable.

This is a must-visit restaurant for those who want to enjoy quality food in a relaxed atmosphere in the Shibuya area.
