SingleThread Opens Entremets Patisserie at Capella Kyoto
August 18, 2026
HEALDSBURG, Calif. — SingleThread has opened the first location of its new SingleThread Entremets patisserie concept inside Capella Kyoto in Japan’s Miyagawa-cho district.
The opening follows the March 2026 debut of SoNoMa by SingleThread, the company’s first international restaurant, also at Capella Kyoto.
Located just off the hotel lobby, SingleThread Entremets offers mousse cakes, chocolates and other confections influenced by ingredients and culinary traditions from Kyoto and Northern California. The concept is led by SingleThread Executive Pastry Chef Emma Horowitz and Chef Miu Morita, previously of the three-Michelin-starred L’Effervescence in Tokyo.
The menu includes three to four core offerings along with rotating seasonal items. Examples cited by SingleThread include Uji matcha with lemon thyme and passionfruit, Dandelion chocolate with shio koji and black sesame and seasonal combinations incorporating rhubarb, chamomile, plum and sake.
The retail display was developed in collaboration with an ikebana floral designer in Kyoto and SingleThread co-owner and head farmer Katina Connaughton. Seasonal plants, flowers and mosses are incorporated into the display and change throughout the year.
SingleThread Entremets extends the pastry program developed at SingleThread’s restaurant in Healdsburg, Calif., where Horowitz oversees the pastry program.
SingleThread’s Sonoma County operations include a 24-acre farm, five-room inn and three-Michelin-starred restaurant. The company expanded internationally with SoNoMa by SingleThread earlier this year and is scheduled to open a second Healdsburg inn, The Selvedge, later in 2026.
