A Japanese gastronomic journey
" Another fantastic memory! "

Members and their guests shared in experiencing a truly one-of-a-kind “Japanese gastronomic journey” themed dinner matched with very rare sakes.

We were honoured to welcome the Deputy Consul General of Japan, Masaru Igawahara, who presented an introduction to Japanese culinary culture.
