Taking over from Makishima at Sheraton Imperial Hotel, Sasagawa tackles the traditions of Japanese cuisine with confidence.
If you're looking for a calm, beautiful hideout for lunch or dinner, Vanilla Sky is a solid bet, since it's secluded & remains undiscovered by the crowds.
Come on Sundays for brunch and bid au revoir to your diet by partnering some Champagne with La Vie En Rose's speciality platter of foie gras and pear on toast, croque madame with mushrooms, smoked salmon omelette, fruit salad & sauteed potatoes, complemented with artisanal croissants, danishes, bread, butter & luscious jams.
