OCTOBER OMAKASE PROMOTION
Aburi (炙り) means "flame-seared." The chef passes a torch over the fish just before serving. The fat right under the surface softens, the edges pick up a light smokiness, and the centre stays tender. This October, that's how every piece of sushi in our omakase is made, at the counter, in front of you.
What's included
Aburi nigiri ×7: seven pieces, each seared moments before it reaches you
Ebi katsu: prawn in a panko crust, fried crisp
Aburi donburi: seared fish over warm rice
Miso soup
Dessert
Why aburi?
Heat changes fish in ways you can taste. Fattier cuts get richer as their oils warm, and leaner ones pick up a toasty edge that plays well against the rice. It's also a good place to start if raw fish has always made you a little hesitant, because the seared surface gives you something familiar to hold on to.
How to eat it
Eat each piece soon after it's set down, while the sear is still warm. The aroma fades quickly, and it's half the point.
Good to know
Is the fish fully cooked? No. Aburi sears the surface and leaves the centre tender, so it isn't suitable for anyone who needs to avoid raw fish completely. Ask our team if you have questions about a particular piece.
When can I come? Any lunch or dinner service, Tuesday to Sunday, from 1 to 31 October.
Where should I sit? At the counter if you can. Watching the torch is part of the meal.
