Welcome to Mimosa Night 'Merci'
Starting from February 21, 2026, residents and visitors of Shibuya can indulge in a special dining experience like no other. The luxurious "A Bientot" restaurant, situated on the top floor of Shibuya Excel Hotel Tokyu, will host the enchanting "Mimosa Night 'Merci.'" This event will run until March 31, 2026, exclusively offering guests a dinner that highlights the vibrant essence of mimosa and the spirit of gratitude.
Mimosa, a flower that heralds the arrival of spring in Europe, holds a deep significance, especially on International Women’s Day celebrated on March 8. The tradition of gifting mimosas to women as a gesture of appreciation is gaining popularity in Japan, making this dinner not only delectable but also meaningful. Each dish in the dinner course reflects the flower's symbolism of thankfulness, elevated by the signature yellow color that permeates the dining space wherever you look.
As you sip your drink, prepared from carefully selected ingredients, treat yourself to a feast that resonates with the season of rebirth and renewal offered by the beautiful surroundings of Shibuya’s vibrant cityscape from 100 meters above.
Dine with Style: Be a Part of the Celebration
The event goes beyond merely enjoying a delectable meal; it invites guests to participate in an interactive experience. From March 2 to March 8, guests are encouraged to wear yellow-themed items like ties, scarves, or accessories. The restaurant's staff will also don the mimosa color, enhancing the joyful atmosphere of this vibrant week.
Those adhering to the yellow dress code will receive a complimentary "Mimosa Cocktail." On the weekend of March 7 and 8, special guests will be treated to a mini bouquet of mimosa flowers with their reservations, adding an extra touch of joy to this delightful experience.
