Ingredient-led
素材と旬
FIVE is built on a single commitment — the ingredient at its peak. Each plate begins with what is in season and is guided by the craft that best honours it: dashi or sauce, live fire or koji, charcuterie or kombu, fermentation or raw.
Technique is never imposed. It is chosen.
Drawn from a globally trained kitchen, grounded in Japanese discipline, the experience pays homage to wabi sabi. Restraint, transience, and the quiet rhythm of nature in cycle. Vegetables, grains, seafood and protein are treated with equal importance, the room, menu and service held to the same care, supporting the ingredient at its centre.

He is now set to bring his full European background experiences to life, offering an exciting Modern European dining experience at Five.
Supernature by Yuki Tsuji
Yuki Tsuji’s ‘Supernature’ explores life cycles and hyper-natural states through Ikebana-inspired animistic sculptures. Artist Yuki Tsuji, born in Shizuoka Prefecture, Japan, brings his unique vision of ‘Supernature’ to Five through his Ikebana-inspired animistic sculptures. With a master’s in architecture from Kogakuin University, Tsuji blends his architectural background with the art of ikebana, studied under Reiko Takenaka. His work explores life cycles and hyper-natural states, celebrating the intricate relationships between humans, architecture, and the natural world. Tsuji’s creations transcend traditional boundaries, fusing the vitality of plants with human creativity in a harmonious expression that resonates with Five’s ethos of culinary artistry and cultural fusion.
