一時の観光地的賑わいが一段落し､良い意味でのクラス感が残る街「白金台」､プラチナ通り沿いのイタリアンレストラン｡
と言っても､通り沿いにいくつか見受けられる大仰なレストランではない｡地下へと進む赤と黒の看板が目印のエントランスは､極めてシンプル｡

オープンキッチンを中心に展開する店内は､白と木目をベースに赤をポイントとして､すっきりとまとめられている｡
この内装と､スタッフの醸し出す軽快な空気とのバランスが､｢肩肘張らず､しかしスタイリッシュ｣という心地良さを生み出している｡

オーナーシェフ三浦 仁のバックグラウンドは､エミリア･ロマーニャ地方｡
特に､種類豊富な手打ちパスタとピアディーナ(ロマーニャ地方の薄焼きパン)は､シェフの思い入れが強いメニュー｡
オーダーの際には､様々な形状のパスタを目の前にして､楽しくも悩ましいひと時を過ごすことになる｡この際のスタッフを見ているだけで､シェフの料理についての思いが､スタッフ1人1人にまで浸透していることがうかがえる｡

恵比寿時代を知っていると､正直､最初は違和感を覚えるかもしれない｡
しかし､スタッフと会話を交わしながらメニューを決め､それを食する時点においては､違和感は安心感そして満足感に変化する｡

少しだけ気を張って出掛けたい､素敵なレストランである｡

Shiroganedai has recently come into its own as a relaxed and trendy area with a true touch of class. The media have been paying close attention to this area, and with the many articles and reviews about the area's restaurants,Shiroganedai is clearly the new place to be in Tokyo.
This unassuming yet distinguished Italian restaurant is located on the main street, Gaien Nishi Dori also known as Platinum Street. (Shirogane actually means platinum in Japanese.)
Unlike some of the other restaurants with obvious facades along the street, Il Grappolo is rather obscure, located below street level just down the stairs of one of the buildings. All that marks its presence is a simple black and red sign at street level.

Inside, open kitchen is the first thing that one notices. The dining area interior is very simply done with woody tones and white and red coverings. The staff bustling about in the kitchen and dining area, combined with the overall tone of the restaurant creates an aura of style without pretence.

Hitoshi Miura, owner and chef, mastered his skills in Emilia Romagna, Italy. He is very proud of and uncompromising on various types of homemade pasta and Piadina he produces everyday. One feels that all staff are also very proud of these pastas when they show and explain them to you. It will certainly be hard to decide which one of these to order.

Il Grappolo started in Ebisu and you may have had the opportunity to try it delights there. This location in Shoiroganedai is new and fresh and you are sure to leave feeling not only comfortable and satisfied, but looking forward to the your next visit.
