I love this season's catalogue so much.

All b/w photos but they are telling something.

it was one year ago, when I met konno san (the chef of uguisu) at Rose bakery, paris.

We was sitting at same table accidently, and talked about cafe and food and paris.

He said he has his own bistro restaurant in tokyo, and this was the night I finally reached there. Because of his humble behavior, I could not imagine the restaurant would be such amazing like top quality of french bistro. the best food and wine than ever, and the people in this small restaurant had the same sense of taste, I feel. There's no surprise that we decided to be a regular customer of uguisu from now on. :)

a lovely book that I found at uguisu last night.

It was a present given to guests at a wedding reception from husband.

All fabulous chefs gave their own special recipes and messages for this book.

Konno san (the chef of uguisu) also joined this lovely project with his marvelous mackerel　recipe.

How lovely wedding march it would be.

love these books so much,

they have their own identities, it's more than magazine.
