■Japanese and Western liquor, 2nd basement floor, fresh food, Japanese taste "Aji Hyakusen", Gourmet Street, 9th floor kitchen & tableware, special Western tableware
A pairing of original recipes and sake to enjoy extraordinary life.
"Apero" means "drinking a drink with a light meal" in a broad sense. Here are some original recipes designed by sommelier chef Eri, who enjoys "Apero" on a daily basis, and you would like to enjoy with alcohol in summer. "Occasionally, I try to make a little-arranged dish and make it look gorgeous, while looking for myself to say, "I'm tired today." I drink wine from the preparation stage and enjoy that time as well (laughs). Please enjoy a little extraordinary life as a daily life."
