The Story of Ingredients, Told Through Sound



Arva, Aman Tokyo's Italian restaurant, is helmed by Executive Chef Masakazu Hiraki, who honed his skills over 17 years as a chef in Italy. The restaurant upholds the rich culinary heritage of Italy, offering simple yet authentic dishes that incorporate seasonal ingredients from Italy and beyond. Its commitment to quality earned it high marks in the 2019 French restaurant guide, Gault&Millau.

This April 26-28, 2019, Arva will host "CONCENT by Aman Tokyo - The Landscape of Taste," a novel dinner event in collaboration with guest sommelier Yang Se-ju and GHI Company, Limited. The event, themed around "harvest" – the very origin of Arva's name – will present a special Italian dinner featuring seasonal ingredients. Guests will be immersed in the story behind each dish through sounds recorded at the ingredients' production sites and during their preparation, evoking the journey from source to plate.
