SEAM – Japanese Kappo Cuisine

Kappo cuisine, 割烹, means to cut and to cook. For us it is more than a way of eating. It is the quiet art of working before the eyes of our guests, until the line between preparation and enjoyment gently disappears. Our cooking follows the seasons and simplicity, with carefully selected, fresh ingredients and a great deal of precision in every movement.

At lunchtime we serve thoughtfully composed Japanese lunch options, from the traditional bentō box and a seasonal set menu to individual à la carte dishes. Each of them carries our signature, whether as a complete lunch or as several plates to share with one another. In the evening we take more time for what lies between the courses.

We understand tradition as a fine seam that connects past and present and opens carefully towards the future. We are interested in the in-between, the pause, the breath, the handing over from hand to hand. Meaning does not come from perfection, but from presence, from time, place and consistency. For groups and private occasions we are happy to plan ahead with you.
