Transcending trends and crises, La Tour d'Argent Tokyo has built up its reputation and clientele and, during a magnificent event in September 2004, celebrated the 20th anniversary of its establishment and its friendship with Japan.
La Tour d’Argent de Tokyo is the first restaurant to have imported duck, to have served lobster and asparagus in Japan, and to have introduced tiered cakes for weddings, previously completely unknown in the country. La Tour d’Argent at the New Otani Hotel has the honour of being the restaurant team chosen by the Japanese Imperial family for some of their receptions. The whole team discreetly moves to the Imperial Palace and is unable to breathe even the slightest detail about their trip.
