Retaining our two Michelin stars and Green Star is a remarkable honor—I am truly grateful to my mentors, my wife, our partners, farmers, and most importantly, to my team. Their passion, discipline, and care make this achievement possible and inspire me to be a better leader everyday.
Vespertine is more than a restaurant — it serves as an artistic medium for expression, where nature takes center stage. Each dish narrates a story rooted in emotion—guided by intuition and refined through technique.
We remain dedicated to pushing the boundaries of gastronomy through creativity, integrity, and a profound sense of responsibility toward our planet which gives us life.

Descending from the kitchen, whisps of smoldering allspice leaf kisses the air, perfuming the delicate channel rockfish.

A selection from our vitality pairing, which harmoniously blends botanicals, ferments, and infusions. We prioritize living ingredients, sourcing for purity in taste and nutrition, as well as cross-utilization from our kitchen to give ingredients a new and extended purpose.

Deep Ocean
Wild sweet prawns are caught from the deep ocean off the coast of Hawaii, where an ancient underwater mountain range plunges to depths of over 15,000 feet. These volcanic mountains function as a natural filter, resulting in some of the cleanest waters on Earth. A transparent cube of sculpted ice suspends the pristine prawns, raw in their simplest form, as if literally dipping a spoon into the icy waters.
Served with wild red gooseberries, aji panca, rosehip oil, and a concentrate of mountain rose apple.

RITUAL ESSENCE BURNER
A sculptural and olfactive object, wheel-thrown and hand-sculpted from black clay.
Intended for essential oils, a tea light gently warms the top ceramic bowl, imbuing the surrounding space with aroma. This beautiful object can also be used as a vessel for burning traditional incense.

As the early scenes of autumn begin, our menu turns to deeper and darker tastes. Aged Coturnix Quail brushed with black trumpet mushroom miso, wrapped in sacred pepper leaf and slow-roasted over glowing embers. A final touch of caramelized birch sap and a light dusting of sweet, resinous myrica gale.
