JAPANESE RESTAURANT
IZAKAYA
JAPANESE CUISINE
FOR SHARING.
In Japan, IZAKAYA restaurants (居酒屋) are the equivalent of French bistros or wine bars. Izakayas are a popular place to drink beer, SHŌCHŪ (distilled spirit) and SAKÉ (rice wine) in the evening. Patrons order hot or cold dishes over the course of the night and share them with friends or colleagues in a relaxed atmosphere.
Otonali means "next door" in Japanese. Our restaurant cultivates the conviviality so dear to Japanese izakayas and is located on Quai Duguay-Trouin, "next door" to our hotel.
A UNIQUE EXPERIENCE
PAIRINGS.
Carine, the restaurant manager and sommelière, is an expert at pairing a fine selection of natural wines and sakés with Yasu's cuisine. In our restaurant, sharing and experience hold a special place.
CHEF
Yasushi « YASU » Hayashi.
Yasushi Hayashi was born in Japan. He is the former right-hand man of Fumio Kudaka, the Michelin-starred chef at our restaurant La Table Breizh Café in Cancale. His passion for Champagne inspired him to come to France to share his expertise as a chef. The combination of his talent with his taste for the finest ingredients takes diners on a culinary journey, blending Japanese flavours with hints of Brittany.
Chef Yasu offers a popular cuisine made with Breton ingredients, which adapts with the seasons. He creates an inventive Japanese cuisine, inspired by the culinary classics of his homeland and blended with those of his adopted country, France.
