Christmas in Tokyo's Little Paris

From December 20 to December 25, 2025, the iconic Tour d'Argent Tokyo, located within the historic Hotel New Otani in Tokyo, will host a special Christmas event titled 'Romantic Christmas'. This event will feature exclusive lunch and dinner menus, inviting guests to indulge in a culinary journey infused with the spirit of the season.

For over 440 years, the original Tour d'Argent in Paris has been a beacon of fine dining, captivating royal families and gourmets with its exquisite cuisine. Positioned along the Seine River, its majestic architecture embodies the essence of elegance. This location has been affectionately referred to as the 'Silver Tower,' continuously welcoming guests with its timeless charm. The Tokyo branch carries on this illustrious legacy, offering a truly unparalleled dining experience.

A visit to the Tour d'Argent Tokyo reveals a dining room reminiscent of a French noble estate, illuminated by sparkling chandeliers and adorned with sophisticated decor. Here, the traditions of French 'Art de Vivre' are beautifully blended with modern gastronomy, inviting diners to escape to a world of luxury and enjoy exquisite culinary delights.

Upon entering the restaurant, guests are greeted by a chic, deep navy blue entrance, echoing the colors associated with the Bourbon monarchy. This color choice symbolizes the deep historical connections between Tour d'Argent and French culture, allowing you to transition from the everyday hustle of Tokyo into a special ‘Little Paris’ where history and aesthetics are alive.

As the year draws to a close, the Christmas decorations create a stunning ambiance, filling the space with a romantic holiday spirit. In the heart of Tokyo, Tour d'Argent Tokyo captures the essence of Paris, creating a unique environment perfect for memorable festive celebrations.

This year, Executive Chef Renault Augier, honored with the prestigious M.O.F. (Meilleur Ouvrier de France) award in 2019, will showcase a carefully curated Christmas menu. Celebrated as a 'Living National Treasure' in French culinary circles, Chef Augier’s contributions to gastronomy have been recognized globally. In November 2024, he will be awarded the French Agricultural Merit Medal for his exceptional service to French cuisine. Prepare to be enchanted by unforgettable flavors crafted by this esteemed chef.
