Ichigo Ichie is a distinguished Japanese kaiseki dining venue located in Cork, Ireland, which earned a Michelin star in 2019. Under the direction of chef Takashi Miyazaki, the restaurant specializes in sophisticated Japanese gastronomy, prioritizing ingredients that reflect the seasons.
The establishment’s name is inspired by the Japanese phrase Ichi-go ichi-e (一期一会), translating to "one time, one meeting," symbolizing the singular and irreplaceable nature of every culinary occasion. This philosophy underscores the restaurant’s commitment to outstanding hospitality, deeply influenced by the principles of the traditional tea ceremony.
In January 2024, Ichigo Ichie shifted to a more relaxed dining concept, rebranding as Ichigo Ichie Bistro and Natural Wine. This change broadened its customer base while preserving its culinary roots.
