The lunch pasta course, which makes generous use of seasonal ingredients, features beautiful dishes that change with the seasons.
This time, we introduce the limited-time autumn pasta lunch menu.
■ Salad
Green Salad:
A colorful green salad brightens the start of your meal.
The crisp texture of fresh vegetables is pleasant, and the light saltiness brings out the umami of the ingredients.
Soft and moist chicken breast and refreshingly sour marinated salmon add accents.
Different textures and flavors harmonize delightfully on one plate.
■ Soup
Butternut Squash Potage:
A warm potage made with butternut squash and pumpkin.
Its mellow and gentle sweetness spreads throughout your mouth, warming your heart.
Its gentle, enveloping texture is universally appealing, making it a soup that everyone will enjoy.
■ Pasta (Main Course)
Choose your main course from two options.
① Venison Red Wine Ragu Pasta:
Venison slowly braised in red wine becomes melt-in-your-mouth tender.
The satisfying crunch of daikon radish and burdock root provides a pleasant accent, perfectly balanced with the deep, rich sauce.
A dish radiating rich aroma and umami, embodying the robust essence of autumn.
② Pacific Saury and Fennel Aglio Olio:
Generously featuring seasonal Pacific saury, the finely flaked fish coats every strand of pasta.
The savory richness of its fat melds with shiso and tomato, while the aromatic garlic flavor stirs the appetite.
A light interpretation of autumn flavors, uniquely crafted by La Terre.
■ Dessert
Roasted Japanese Chestnut Mont Blanc:
A silky-smooth Mont Blanc crafted from meticulously sieved Japanese chestnuts.
The chestnut's fragrance and gentle sweetness fill your mouth.
The subtly sweet, sophisticated flavor is elegantly accented by candied chestnuts.
Enjoyed with vanilla ice cream, this is a quintessential Latère luxury dessert.
■ After
Finish with your choice of coffee, black tea, or herbal tea.
Savour the gentle aftertaste, perfect for rounding off your lunchtime experience.
L'Atelier's lunch course in Nishi-Azabu offers a luxurious time to savour seasonal ingredients at their peak.
Each dish reflects the chef's delicate sensibility and playful spirit, making it ideal for days when you want to spend a leisurely afternoon.
You can choose your combination based on preference: pasta only, pasta with salad, or a full course including dessert.
