Food photography is more than capturing a plate—it’s about telling the story of flavors, textures, and craftsmanship. Being of French origin, I’ve always appreciated the importance of quality ingredients. Whether it’s the vibrant sheen of fresh produce, the marbled perfection of a steak, or the golden crust of a baguette, the foundation of any great dish lies in its components. My pictures aim to highlight this connection: the rich colors of seasonal fruits, the delicate layers of a mille-feuille, or the steam rising from a freshly prepared soup. It’s not just about presentation but the feeling food evokes—comfort, indulgence, or celebration. Whether it’s a Michelin-starred meal or a simple picnic spread, every dish has its own charm when seen through the lens.
Uni-don, a Hokkaido specialty, is a must-try for seafood lovers. Fresh sea urchin atop perfectly steamed rice is a true ocean-to-table delight. Pro-tip is spot on: the best uni is firm and has a creamy texture, not mushy or overly jam-like. A bite of Hokkaido’s finest, straight from the sea! 🥢🍚
The jewel of Hokkaido cuisine, Ikuradon, hits differently in its homeland. This one from Otaru gleams with vibrant orange salmon roe, piled generously atop fluffy white rice. Each bite bursts with salty-sweet freshness, like the ocean decided to spoil you for the day. Simple, local, and absolutely unforgettable.
This ramen from Sugamo isn’t just delicious—it’s got Michelin history. Rich broth, expertly crafted noodles, and flavors that earned it a star make it a must-try. If you’re in the area, treat yourself to a bowl that blends local charm with world-class taste. Highly recommended and worth the detour!

Stumbled upon a gem in Shimbashi serving mouthwatering curry! The spicy kick, fiery ambiance, and friendly waitresses make it a spot worth revisiting. Perfect for a flavorful meal with a touch of charm. Shimbashi never disappoints!
Finalizing 5G calls for a martini—shaken, not stirred, of course! James Bond style suits the occasion perfectly—sophisticated, bold, and a little iconic, much like the tech you’ve just wrapped up. Cheers to a milestone worthy of a secret agent’s toast! 🍸
Snapped a few shots in Athens while indulging in some delicious local delicacies. From freshly baked pita to creamy tzatziki, and of course, souvlaki straight off the grill, every bite was a treat. The vibrant markets and cozy tavernas made it all the more memorable. Athens is a feast for both the eyes and the…
Had to skip breakfast at home this morning because of the yearly (and mandatory) health check. After all that radioactive yogurt and tests, I was starving! Definitely looking forward to making up for it with a proper meal now.
In addition to the uncomfortable pillow, the one thing I’m not too fond of in a ryokan is the traditional Japanese breakfast.
