Our last dinner date of 2011 was at Le Berkeley. I saw Le Berkeley in a magazine I had bought of good restaurants in Tokyo. It opened earlier this year and the reason I wanted to go there was because the owner/chef lived in Berkeley, CA.
It's a cozy bistro in an upscale neighborhood and I loved the homey vibe. The restaurant is run by the husband (chef) and wife (server). They have three dinner courses and a nice selection of reasonably priced French wines. We ordered a bottle of champagne and a red wine from Rhone. Because I don't know anything about French wines, I asked the server for a few of her recommendations. The food was very hearty and simple but carefully prepared.
