A *new* Gonpachi location is opening in California's Beverly Hills January 2007.

Step inside the embrace of traditional Japanese aesthetic beauty, a collection of distinct and raified spaces which stir the palate as well as the imagination. From the vaulted main dining room to the tranquil sushi counter, the private tatami rooms seemingly nestled into a vintage Japanese farmhouse and the bar space all conspire to transport the visitor to an earlier time and place, a traditional and richly antique Japan awash in the splendid atmosphere called Wa.

In addition to a wide selection of original, creative dishes the menu also includes authentic Japanese favorites such as soba (buckwheat noodles), delicacies from the charcoal grill, and stunningly good sushi. Come and enjoy the finest Japanese cuisine prepared using the selected fresh ingredients; fish from Tokyo's Tsukiji Market, not local, and soba noodles pounded right here on the spot.

Also, watch this space for periodic updates on the construction of the new Beverly Hills location. It's going to be quite exciting!

Cafe Decadence's Seijo location will be temporarily closed from August 1st through the 31st. We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause. The Yoyogi-Uehara location will maintain normal business hours for this period.

Global-Dining is opening two new locations in Urban Terrace Chayamachi in late July as part of the first foray beyond Kanto for Monsoon Cafe and Cafe La Boheme.

Chayamachi, located next to Umeda Station, is a quaint district of old residences and narrow alleyways relatively unchanged as the rest of the city has moderninzed. It's a thriving, popular area populated with many distinctive shops, and out of this area was born Urban Terrace Chayamachi, a unique structure comprising three buildings with four floors each. Cafe la Boheme on the 3rd floor and Monsoon cafe the 4th, with each occupying more than 330 square meters of space.

It is with great anticipation that we look forward to our first locations in the Kansai area, and we hope you do as well!
