ref. 69462Tokyo, éd. Hôtel Okura, S.d. (fin des années 90, début des années 2000), in-folio (29 x 42 cm), cartonnage souple ill. en coul. d'une reproduction d'une affiche "Belle Epoque" de Mucha sur fond brun-vert clair, titre en noir, sur la 4e de couv. "hôtel Okura" en noir, 1 feuille (56,5 x 41,5 cm) carton souple crème pliée en deux avec texte en français de coul. verte et texte en japonais de coul. noir, prix en yen, sur le haut de la troisième page un carton collé avec deux suggestions de plats avec les prix, L'hôtel Okura fut construit dans les années 60 à Tokyo. C'est grâce à son chef, Masakichi Ono, que ce restaurant ainsi que cet hôtal fut le plus grand et le plus respecté du Japon voire du monde. Au niveau du bâtiment, c'est un chef-d'œuvre des années 60. Il fut le décor d'un James Bond, "On ne vit que deux fois" en 1967. Les plus grands chefs français comme Paul Bocuse et Joël Robuchon ont honoré la France et le Japon par leur présence pour des dîners et festivals de prestige, comme l'indique notre "menu" ! L'hôtel Okura fut détruit en 2015 pour faire place à un somptueux établissement qui est devenu un des meilleurs du monde. Il faut signaler également que le chef français Frédéric Simonin participa aux "quinzaine gastronomique" en 2011 et 2012 dans ce même hôtel. Joël Robuchon, décédé le 6 août 2018, ouvrit son premier restaurant au Japon, à Tokyo, en 1989, le "Taillevent-Robuchon" qui fut suivi par bien d'autres. Les japonais voyaient en lui un "dieu" absolu de la cuisine française ! Je n'ai pû trouver la date de ce "festival de la cuisine française", qui devrait avoir eu lieu entre les années 1990 et 2000 ! Cet "objet de souvenir" rapproche deux disparus, le grand chef Joël Robuchon et un des plus beaux hôtels du monde ! Il est à considérer comme un "souvenir historique" ! Ce menu - carte ne fut imprimé que pour les invités de ce gala (d'inauguration ou de cloture ?), soit en très petit nombre et est donc EXTREMEMENT RARE !! Très bon état; le cartonnage est très légèrement fâtigué au bords mais le cartonnage avec le menu et la carte est en très bon état !
