I have to say that there are many Japanese restaurants in Suzhou, but there are not many restaurants with mid-to-high-end consumption. Founded in early 2018, this Takekure Kappo restaurant is one of the explorers of mid-to-high-end Japanese food consumption in Suzhou.
Kappo is a form in which diners can sit at a cooking table and watch the chef cook, and although it is a product of cultural fusion with a relatively short history, it is also a representative culinary culture. The restaurant layout of Takekukure Kappo 11 Private Rooms and 1 bar is in conflict with the kappo culture, so we recommend that diners who do not have a high need for privacy choose the bar to dine.
In terms of the choice of ingredients, Takekukushi kappo cuisine shows full sincerity. Take the restaurant's popular sashimi platter, for example, which is made up of Norwegian salmon belly, bluefin tuna, and live red scallops from Zhangzidao, which are freshly delivered every day to ensure a dining experience. Takegakure chose a very generous thick cutting method, and the portion was much more than many restaurants. The salmon belly, which has no fishy smell at all, is orange in color and full of flesh; Bluefin tuna with edible gold leaf, the fat is like a snowflake, fat and sweet; The fresh Zhangzidao live red scallops flown in from the airlift are very crisp and refreshing to enjoy after the first two, and the freshly ground mustard also marks the restaurant's mid-to-high-end positioning. Charcoal-grilled tuna chin and live sea urchin from Zhangzidao are even better and worth trying. Of course, compared to these more expensive à la carte dishes, Takekure Kappo Cuisine has a more affordable set meal that is not inferior in quality.
Located on the first floor of the Ganghua Building, Takekukure Kappo has a deep yet atmospheric design, which is in stark contrast to many of the unusually low-key high-end Japanese restaurants or opulent counterparts. As soon as the diners enter, a waiter dressed in a kimono comes up to greet them. Takekukushi kappo cuisine is based on a traditional Japanese style with tatami flooring, and you need to take off your shoes when you enter the door. The sound insulation of the box is poor, and it is not worth recommending, but fortunately, the fee is consistent with the hall, and there is no minimum consumption and service charge. One of the private rooms has a round table with a turntable, and the fusion of Japanese food and Chinese food tools makes you feel that the restaurant has a lot of ideas.
Parking outside the restaurant is very convenient, and there is basically no lack of parking space. When diners check out, the waiter will ask and offer a 3-hour free parking ticket.
