The sound system is an integral part of this place with its long corridor bathed in red light, its open kitchen behind a counter and its tables lining the wall. The name ("leptin" in English) refers to the hormone that signals to your brain when you are satiated – no question of leaving here on an empty stomach! The chef deftly draws on the culinary traditions of France, Asia and beyond, treating diners to siu mai, an array of fermented foods and Japanese seasonings. It's brilliantly done, and the seasoned team is more than happy to tell you how. Two to three savoury dishes plus one sweet should do the trick. Natural wine list, an interesting selection of wines by the glass and savvy recommendations.
