The name “Ichoume” comes from the address of this street. Ichoume is located on ‘1’ Harbour Street, Darling Quarter. That’s why we named the restaurant “Ichoume” (Choume is used for addresses in Japan. It's a way of breaking a municipality into districts. 丁目(Choume) is ‘city district’, so ‘1 choume’(Ichoume) is ‘1st [city] district’).The design concept of the restaurant is a hangout for adults.The menu is supervised by AKIKO ISHIKAWA, who has accumulated her career in many restaurants. The head chef is TOMOHIKO KIMURA . He specialises in Japanese - based cuisine with French techniques and flavours. SHINSUKE TODA is recognised among the best sushi chefs now working and is credited with techniques utilised in contemporary sushi and sashimi preparation.Hope you enjoy what we’ve made for you.Owner ARI K. & YUKI ISHIKAWA

I found Elements Brasserie via a search online and saw the Surf & Turf Monday special, so booked it in. The food quality was quite impressive and the service was very friendly and professional. The ambiance and aesthetic of the restaurant was really quite nice too (except for the table near us with young children running around everywhere!). Will definitely return and am excited to try other meals on the menu too (as well as the S&T again!!).
