Back in Japan (September 2015)...Farmshop Tokyo opened


In the same week I was back in Japan this time, Farmshop Tokyo opened in Futako-Tamagawa district.

Farmshop originally opened in Los Angeles, followed by Marin County. They serve high-casual farm-to-table California cuisine. When I heard the news that they opened a Tokyo location, I was so excited, so I went to check it out with a friend.

The dishes were really delicious and made me feel like I was back in California! Tokyo people are so lucky that they can eat the real California cuisine in the heart of Tokyo.


It was really wonderful to meet Jeff, the chef/ owner of Farmshop there, too! He flew from California to stay in Tokyo for a few weeks to open the restaurant and train all the staff.

Very exciting!
