An Exclusive Culinary Dinner at Conrad Tokyo
On April 23, 2026, Conrad Tokyo will host a remarkable dining event at its renowned Chinese restaurant, China Blue. This unique collaboration features the esteemed French restaurant Ginza Le Coq, known for its iconic contributions to the culinary landscape of Japan. Guests will indulge in an exceptional multi-course dinner accompanied by exquisite wines from the esteemed Bodegas Viñátigo winery, set in the enchanting backdrop of Tokyo Bay.
The event will kick off with a warm welcome from Neil McGuinness, the General Manager of Conrad Tokyo. The dinner will feature the innovative creation of two acclaimed chefs: Shuuto Sugita, head chef of Ginza Le Coq, and Chi Wai Chan, head chef of China Blue. Together, they will provide guests with a memorable gastronomic experience that bridges traditional French and modern Chinese cuisine.
A Unique Collaboration Born from a Shared Passion
The genesis of this culinary collaboration traces back to a visit by Yuya Kondo, Chief Brand Officer at Ginza Le Coq, and Miyuki Morimoto, Executive Sommelier at Conrad Tokyo, to Bodegas Viñátigo. Founded in the Canary Islands, this winery has garnered international acclaim for its dedication to preserving indigenous grape varieties and crafting high-quality wines that showcase the unique volcanic terroir of Tenerife.
As part of the dinner, guests will enjoy six delectable courses of traditional French cuisine curated by Chef Sugita paired with a modern twist of Cantonese dishes by Chef Chi Wai. The highlight of the evening includes a signature dish prepared by Chef Sugita featuring wild boar in a double consomme soup paired with Hong Kong-style noodles and char siu.
The Wines that Elevate the Experience
Every dish will be thoughtfully paired with exceptional wines from Bodegas Viñátigo, enhancing the overall dining experience. As a special treat, the founders of the winery, Juan Jesús Méndez Siverio and his son Jorge Méndez Díaz, will be present to share insights about the rich history of their winery and the art of winemaking in the Canary Islands.
The evening promises a feast for the senses, where classic and modern culinary philosophies will intertwine harmoniously, creating a dining experience that feels as much like a work of art as it does a meal. While indulging in the flavors and presentations, guests will also be treated to stunning views of the illuminated Tokyo Bay, adding to the allure of the evening.
