[EVENT] BOQUERIA × hamadaya LABO Collaboration Event!

BOQUERIA and hamadaya LABO in Uozu, Toyama. Sparked by their listing in “Gault et Millau 2019,” the two chefs are holding a collaboration event on June 23.

Two restaurants in Uozu, Toyama – BOQUERIA and hamadaya LABO. Their two chefs are holding a collaboration event focused on food culture on Sunday, June 23.


The event originally grew out of the two chefs’ shared feeling: “Precisely because we work in food and drink, we want to put forward proposals that lead somewhere – about food and food-related issues.”

This event offers not only cuisine but also a DJ from the Tokyo club “WOMB,” making it a true proposal of “food × culture.”

It begins with Part 1, the Gala Party.

Enjoy dishes by BOQUERIA’s chef Koji Matsumoto and hamadaya LABO’s chef Yuta Hamada built around the theme of future food issues. Matsumoto’s Mediterranean cuisine and Hamada’s creative Japanese cuisine (a “RED U-35” award winner) are served alongside wines and sake chosen by the two chefs.

Part 2’s theme: a neo grown-up play-style party.

A DJ from “WOMB,” one of Tokyo’s world-famous clubs, is invited as guest, blending restaurant and nightlife culture so guests can enjoy the time around food together with music.

An event themed on the fusion of food and culture – perhaps a proposal only a POP establishment could make. Why not go and feel that live energy for yourself?

Event details are as follows.
