Nagaya comes recommended with 1 Michelin star, it is situated in the Japanese quarter and they serve a fusion between the European and Japanese kitchens, we are here for a Saturday lunch.
Saturday lunch, we have parked the car after 3 hours on slippery roads (with 7 +- accidents reported in Luxembourg). Happy and hungry as always we quickly choose the 68€ lunch menu while I attack the extensive and well arranged wine list:

As usual we had luck, a little research goes a long when and Nagaya served an excellent lunch which in itself was worth the 250km drive. We are already looking for reasons to return and try the large sushi plate as it was very nicely presented at the neighboring table.
Thomas the Maitre d’ managed an excellent service with good style and knowledgeable response to our every question.
