Description:
If it's true that love is the best spice for cooking, then perhaps that's why Yuko Kobayashi's 23-year-old, 18-seat restaurant is so popular. She goes to market every morning to fetch ingredients for a dozen main dishes, which may include stuffed eggplant, lasagne, moussaka, and other casseroles and curries and are spread on a counter along with their prices. Every summer Kobayashi goes off to search for recipes in Sicily, South America, northern Africa, and other countries that feature garlic, tomatoes, and olive oil in their cuisine. The love for what she does shines in her eyes as she cooks, serves, and walks you through the menu of daily dishes displayed. A word of warning: The food is so delicious, it's tempting to over-order. Highly recommended.
