Cantina Carica.ri (sister store to nearby Gakugei-Daigaku’s Osteria Bar Ri.carica) is a welcome addition to Toritsu-Daigaku’s hitherto underwhelming dining scene, providing good food, wine and service with an air of ease and sophistication.
Owner chef Tsutsumi Ryosuke learned his trade in Tuscany and at Komazawa-Daigaku’s Tu Sei Grande. His latest restaurant is staffed by a cohort of young, friendly chefs and floor staff as well as a sommelier passionate about his cellar of organic and bio wines catering to a range of tastes and purses.
The menu provides Italian staples as well as cooking inspired by seasonal ingredients and Japanese flare. Signature dishes such as the charcuterie moriawase, zenzai moriawase and A5 black hair wagyu steak frites won’t disappoint (as long as you consider baby roast potatoes to be frites).
