Love this idea, mostly because fresh herbs are crazy expensive and I never use them all up before they go bad: chop up your herbs and stick them into an ice cube tray, then cover with olive oil and freeze.
Toss a cube or two into your pan whenever you’re in need, and presto: fresh herbs, all winter long.

I absolutely love mushrooms.
Now, I know some of you may not but that’s probably because you haven’t tried them properly cooked or maybe you had a bad incident where someone gave you magic mushrooms and you started seeing all sorts of crazy shit and you really don’t care to relive that particular experience. Either way, this mushroom mac and cheese looks marvelous.

Lumière, Shinsaibashi [dinner] (continued from here). Continuing with their tend of light dishes, their signature peach on peach on peach dish (that’s peach granita, peach sorbet and peach soup) was nice and clean, and of course, refreshing. I liked the little crispy peach skin garnish. Oh, look Lil, there’s a peach foam!! The caramel flourless tart lacked a bit of richness you would normally expect, however, it wasn’t bad. At this stage we were both a bit full (and pissed from all the wine), nonetheless, petit fours of chocolate lolly pops with popping candy and little panna cotta “droplets” could not be ignored.
One of the most interesting things about Lumière is Chef Karato’s approach to cooking French inspired food. He chooses to make fairly light dishes, avoiding a lot of cream and butter. I mean, after a fair bit of food, the walk back to Shinsaibashi station wasn’t so bad. In fact, I remember saying I was satisfied but didn’t feel like I had over eaten. Don’t get me wrong, I like heavy sauces and things seared in butter, but sometimes I can feel a bit overwhelmed after eating such things. This was not one of those days. For this and other reasons Lumière is indeed worth a try.
Good knowledgeable service. Variety of wines was awesome. ¥20000 pp (including wine). Tabelog entry here.
