About House & Restaurant "maison owl"
“Cave x French x Wine”
It is a restaurant that invites guests to the chef’s hideout and acts French to feel the ingredients. The truffle-scented cave is a fascinating space that makes you more sensitive to food and wine. Original vessels and cutlery are also produced to match the style of “maison owl”. House & Restaurant where you can stay only for one group per day.
