01 / ABOUT THE PLACE
About this place
An apple pie’s sweet-tart fruit meets the savoury substance of a meat pie in CUCINA IDEYA’s signature apple meat pie. Diners who have taken it away have praised the pairing of hearty meat and sharp apple, with one noting the memorable combination of slow-cooked chunks of meat and apple. The menu also lists a game pie. You could take one home to try, or serve it as part of dinner.
For a meal in the restaurant, start with a ham platter or bruschetta with liver pâté and pear, then move on to charcoal-grilled pork shoulder or pasta. Other choices take the meal in a different direction from the pies, including casarecce with homemade tuna and takana in tomato sauce, and spaghetti with 5 kinds of mushrooms, with the option to add truffle. Wine and beer are available, making it possible to share several dishes over dinner or dine solo at the counter.
At the Kitazawa 5-chome restaurant, you can pick up a pie to take away during the day or dine in during the evening.
