Nestled in Rennes, this chic spot fuses Japanese and French flavors for a whimsical tasting journey, all set in a cozy, inviting atmosphere.
"This is the sister restaurant of chef Julien Lemarié's MICHELIN-starred Japanese-style restaurant (IMA). At lunchtime, in a relaxed atmosphere, you can enjoy a variety of Japanese donburi – a bowl of rice with toppings that vary according to the season or inspiration. In the evening, French dishes are skilfully revisited with a Japanese touch, such as leeks with miso and katsuobushi vinaigrette. The service comes with a smile!" - Michelin Inspector
"“Cooking has always been a means of travel for me”, explains chef Julien Lemarié, who has plied his trade in London, Tokyo and Singapore. At his restaurant, Ima, which means “now” in Japanese, this talented culinary technician conjures up instinctive cuisine showcased on tasting menus that combine subtlety with regional and Asian influences. Lemarié enhances his dishes with broths, infusions, spices, aromatic plants and algae. And for those keen to enjoy the full Japanese experience, make sure you take a seat at the bar. It's now your turn to travel!" - Michelin Inspector
