Magician, the young and Japanese chef of the Botanique restaurant has chosen France to start his career and refine his technique.

The tool is mastered, room for life.

Always driven by the same rigor and endowed with an insatiable curiosity, Sugio Yamaguchi lets the living flourish in his kitchen.

He creates, and lets himself be enlightened by the producers of his circle, his ecosystem, kept friendly near him.

Publicity

The chef draws and rises from their shared knowledge and know-how, highlights them, invents, shares, enthuses, transmits: from their links are born souvenir dishes, sincere, vibrant emotions, islands of wonder.

And when the circle opens up to the culinary cultures of the world, to Japanese curries, to Mafé, to pancakes, the journey and the sharing go from bite to bite.

Recipes


Galette rolled with tops or leaves that you like!), Recipe by Sugio Yamaguchi, published in his stories on Instagram.


200 g of flour, 140 g of water.


Mix the flour and water, knead for 5 minutes, then roll out the dough.


Add the tops, leaves, chopped herbs.

Roll the dough on itself into a tube then form a snail.

“Lower” this snail, brown this pancake in a large pan with vegetable oil (sesame if you have), and enjoy!


Spicy tops


Wash the tops and leaves, chop them finely, add salt and leave to "marinate" for 30 minutes.

Rinse with clear water, drain.
