"Nothing else today
Than to go into the spring
Nothing more "
Yosa Buson
April means spring, and spring means flowers.
Just as the flowerbeds and balconies of Marseille are decked out in pistils and petals, the Tabi restaurant is decked out in its finest colors to welcome you to the soft, voluptuous Vallon des Auffes district.
Here, especially on sunny days, Dream and Journey are one and the same. Natural elements blend together to create a wonderful gustatory synergy, also known as umami, which is delicately brought to life in each of the recipes created by chef Ippei Uemura.
Because at Tabi, springtime is lived to the rhythm of the five senses and the five flavors of nomadic kaiseki cuisine: sweet, salty, bitter, acid and... umami.
We'd be delighted to be able to offer you a unique and exotic gastronomic escapade, before handing in our aprons from April 30 to May 9 2024 inclusive, for a short annual vacation.
Then it's time to do as we please.
At Tabi, most of the containers are designed by our Chef Ippei UEMURA.
Indeed, his creativity extends beyond the kitchen as each year he collaborates with Japanese artisans to offer our customers a journey that lives up to our promises.
The latest example is the Tuna Yubiki plate from Koda Yaki. The aim was to be able to combine elegance and practicality, like the spout used to easily finish the dish. And this continues throughout Japan, as this map shows.
It's no secret that Tabi is synonymous with travel.
Chef Ippei Uemura's signature is the fusion of ancestral Japanese techniques with local products from the land, sea and mountains.
The collaboration with Provençal producers is essential and allows us to offer seasonal products of excellence throughout the year.
These include oysters from the Bay of Tamaris, honey from the Manufacture du Miel, olive oil from Valensolive, strawberries from Terre de Goût, micro pods from Paysan Urbain, mushrooms from Champignons de Marseille, flowers from A fleurs de Pots and truffles from Plantin.
The Voyage menu perfectly illustrates the diversity of flavours, as it offers no less than 23 different vegetables.
