Counter seating 10, overlooking the Japanese chefs at work.
1 menu of 14 courses at $1280 pp.
Only one slot available- 7pm.
Chef started by showing us the cuts of meat: Outside skirt, sirloin, tongue and rump.
Here’s what we had.
-shot of cream of onion soup. Onions were from Awaji.
-Tartare wrapped in seaweed.
-Fillet with beech mushroom
-Rump, slow cooked then char finished; like the western Roast beef. Served with eggplant, sansho and balsamic vinegar.
-Tongue with salt and wasabi. Very thick, not too chewy. Impressed that restaurant was able to source such a good quality piece, as normally restaurants were not able to import wagyu tongue from Japan.
-Outside skirt with sauce, to be wrapped in a piece of lettuce with green papaya.
-Slightly grilled fillet served with salad leaves and green mustard.
-Wagyu with daikon in broth. Daikon was perfectly cooked: sweet and tender.
Persimmon with tofu sauce
Wagyu fillet sandwich with special sauce and mayonnaise
Wagyu wanton
Sirloin sukiyaki with shiitake mushrooms
A choice of wagyu curry (not pictured), Somen or shigureni (ie beef cooked in a sweet soy sauce flavored with ginger- a classic Japanese home-cooked dish.) Tasted salty and sweet at the same time.
Dessert: Persimmon gelato with muscat and almond tofu.
In summary: superb wagyu nite. Meal did not feel oily or too heavy at all (but possibly due to the fact that we went hiking for 6 hours beforehand).
