"Japanese-born chef Takao Takano has been the toast of Lyon for a while, thanks to his long-standing commitment to French gastronomy as well as his passion for his adopted hometown. Training under one of Lyon’s rising culinary stars Nicolas Le Bec, who won two Michelin Stars for the restaurant that bore his name, chef Takano was thrust into the spotlight after Le Bec’s move to Shanghai. Chef Takano’s beautifully conceived and executed contemporary French cooking has made his restaurant one of the most sought-after reservations in town. It is hard not to be won over by his sense of precision, his humility in handling ingredients, his absolute respect of flavours and his subtle compositions." - Michelin Guide Digital-Singapore
