At FAN, Coco continues this legacy. FAN's culinary philosophy keeps umami as its backbone, while exploring the immense potential of mixing cultures, flavours, and techniques. Execution and balance remain central to every dish.However, FAN's richness does not stop there: the restaurant was founded by Coco together with his childhood friends Romina and Santiago, both of Cantonese descent. As a result, FAN is not only Japanese-Peruvian, its also Cantonese, French, Spanish, and, most importantly, constantly evolving.For us, FAN is about celebrating the beauty of cultural exchange, learning from others, and discovering ever new ways of embodying Umami.This is what we call Neo-Nikkei cuisine.

A dining room built of wood, warm and grounding, like a cocoon carved from nature itself. Every wall, every line, every scent reminds you of one truth: everything begins with the material. At Materia, we honour the ingredient first — the product in its purest form — allowing Japanese refinement and European soul to meet without complication, without ego, only respect.Our menu is guided by season, by terroir, by the beauty of what the earth offers. Techniques are precise yet gentle, coaxing flavour without forcing it, letting each ingredient speak for itself. Produce treated not as parts, but as protagonists.The space is intimate. Wooden walls absorb the world outside, keeping only warmth and conversation within. A live DJ softly textures the evening with deep, thoughtful sound, never overpowering — only accompanying, like harmony to melody.Where East and West fold into one another, where the raw and the refined coexist, and where the ingredient — the materia — is always the hero.

    This is hands down our favorite place to eat in the city. Sushi, tempura, nigiri and great appetizers abound. The food has the love of a mom and pop dive but the quality and preparation of a black tie restaurant.The platter of rolls is a great tour around the menu. Best japanese in a very long time
