It seems that “Frim Fram Sauce” means something like a mysterious sauce, but the song’s lyrics are full of many delicious-sounding dishes! The rendition by the master Nat King Cole is famous, but the performance by the Canadian jazz pianist Diana Krall is wonderful!

Love, Love, LoveDonny Hathaway

Singer-songwriter Donny Hathaway, who, along with Marvin Gaye and Stevie Wonder, made major contributions to the Neo Soul boom of the 1970s.

Unusually for a Black artist of that era, he came from an upper-middle-class background and studied classical music from a young age.

Perhaps because of that experience, his musicality stands apart from other Neo Soul singers.

Love, Love, Love is one of his tracks I especially recommend for lunchtime.

It’s crafted as an exceptionally smooth piece of Neo Soul and, as the title suggests, it overflows with euphoria throughout.

If you want to enjoy a fun, relaxed lunch, be sure to add it to your playlist.

Esperanza Spalding is an artist who has gained popularity as a jazz singer.

She is also active as a jazz bassist, and her broad, sophisticated musicality is loved by many listeners.

One of her signature songs is “Black Gold,” a profoundly insightful work themed around Black culture in the United States.

With its gentle, groovy, and blissful tone throughout, it’s a perfect track for a relaxed lunchtime.

I Know You KnowEsperanza Spalding

Esperanza Spalding – “I Know You Know / Smile Like That” (Live in San Sebastian july 23, 2009 – 3/9)
I Know You KnowEsperanza Spalding

“I Know You Know” by Esperanza Spalding, who is highly acclaimed both as a bassist and as a vocalist.

Her bright, clear singing and the warm, rounded tone of the bass are wonderful.

It feels like a song that would make for a pleasant mood and an enjoyable meal.

I began my DJ career in my mid-teens and have continued working in multiple capacities, including performing in various units, providing tracks to artists, and producing.

This track is an instrumental included on Raw Clipz, released in February 2020, a collaboration with Fitz Ambro$e, a Canada-born beatmaker now based in Tokyo.

Night LightsGerry Mulligan

Gerry Mulligan – Night Lights

Among restaurants, this is the jazz track you’ll want to hear at a calm, night-view spot! It’s often called a cool jazz classic, and just like the title suggests, it’s a piece that perfectly suits nighttime neon.

It’s the best song for enjoying a relaxed, grown-up atmosphere!

Moonlight SerenadeGlenn Miller & His Orchestra

This song, which can be considered one of the signature pieces of the Glenn Miller Orchestra, is a beautiful slow-tempo ballad.

Just listening to it makes you feel as if you’ve time-traveled into the world of a black-and-white film, and it might let you enjoy a dinner time reminiscent of the good old days.

The delicate clarinet solo also enhances the atmosphere.
