September 12th is Space Day in Japan, an anniversary commemorating the dual establishment of Japan’s Science and Technology Agency and the Institute of Space and Astronautical Science. And in much-deserved celebration, the Mori Art Museum in Roppongi Hills will be making sure that the special day is given the recognition it deserves.
At The Universe and Art: Princess Kaguya, Leonardo da Vinci, Teamlab art exhibition, visitors can immerse themselves in the 200 items on display that all revolve around the theme of the universe. But the exhibition isn’t the only place they can appreciate the vastness of space — at The Sun, the museum cafe, a new, cosmic-themed menu will be offered to guests starting September 12th.
The new galactic menu consists of 3 dishes representing space:
Black Hole Kakiage Bowl
This fried seafood bowl is packed with shrimp and squid kakiage fries mixed with bamboo charcoal, and is topped with quail egg, gold leaf, and silver sugar. The charcoal, which is also mixed into the rice, makes the entire bowl look like a delicious black abyss. Available from September 12th to Jamuary 9th.
