Far and above the best restaurant we have experienced in the Münster area. Our absolute favorite place for special occasions. We've now been 4 or 5 times, each time it has been amazing. Feels like being teleported to a really nice place in Japan - the menu is exactly how it needs to be: relatively "simple" dishes that shine with great ingredients and flawless execution.
