Qui Feu Qui

In the middle of Honamachi area, not far from Midosuji Honamchi station is the high-class French diner called ‘Qui Feu Qui’.

For those that don’t speak French, Qui means who and Feu means fire in French. The name thus becomes Who Fire Who, which in Japanese would translate more as ‘someone’ and ‘someone’ equals ‘fire’. The deeper meaning is that if you introduce food between the two someone’s it will create a lovely or warm atmosphere and/or end up in friendship, hence the fire.

‘Qui Feu Qui’ doesn’t just simply serve French food. Their menu’s and preparation speaks high class. They serve fresh and high quality food that is beautifully prepared and presented.

One of their main dishes is a glass plate with various fresh and almost raw meats like: “liverpaste, pate, white meat, duck, etc” placed in a circle around some salad with on the side, five stylish glass tubes with a variety of toppings inside that the customer can try with each piece of meat. It’s a unique experience.

Their menu offers a variety of animal meat that are harder to find in the usual French restaurants like: “Deer, ox, boar, rabbit and even pigeon”. All carefully prepared and beautifully displayed.

Even a simple piece of bread comes with a stylish plate and butter knife. And of course they have some great wines too.

A lunch or dinner at ‘Qui Feu Qui’ is definiteily a unique experience with a meal to remember.
