feel like something fancy?
masu japanese robata restaurant and bar has been receiving a load of buzz lately. it’s taken out a load of metro magazine 2014 restaurant awards recently too.
last weekend i was fortunate enough to hear we would be heading to masu for a family dinner. typical last minute plans became what was one of the best dinner experiences i’ve had in a long time - which is why my review is a 5.
the attached picture is the “plumberry sawa” – and it is a divine cocktail. i’m getting cravings just thinking about it. masu has a fantastic drinks list. cocktails, wine, sake, beer…
how about the menu? it’s designed so you order many small dishes and they just continue to roll out from the kitchen. because we were a group of 7 and we all love to eat we ordered loads:
fresh sashimi, chicken wing skewers, chicken yakitori, baby chicken, delicious spicy tuna sushi, the black cod, beef, gyoza, kumara with teriyaki glaze, tempura… i’m probably forgetting some. let’s just say it was a continuous stream of tastiness and everything was amazing. the black cod is a stand out - it came recommended by our waitress and we were all raving about it when we left. the service here was really helpful overall just great.
now, the dessert menu! i got the sesame elderflower pannacotta. don’t be intimidated by the dessert options – my brother got the tofu cheesecake and man it was amazing. it’s not like eating actual tofu (i’m not a tofu fan).
you know a meal’s good when everyone won’t shut up about it afterwards.
be adventurous and you will be rewarded!
