Wagyu Beef Tartar



Here we have one of our newer appetizers from the menu. It's a wagyu beef tartar that we serve with more unusual parings then regular beef tartar preparation.




Not only is this a beautiful dish but it's also a firework of textures.




Starting from the left we serve,




Wagyu Fat Powder: Rendered fat that we mix with tapiocamaltodextrian, when this powder is eaten it melts back into fat in your mouth.


Mung bean Salad: Cooked mung beans mixed with pickled ginger, shallots and truffle oil. Nice aldente beans.


Wagyu Tartar: Finley diced Wagyu beef, Tangerine olive oil. The most tender beef tartar we have ever served.


Daikon Radish: Finley diced daikon radish marinated in a Miso-sesame oil vinaigrette. crunchy daikon radish.


Tobikko: Salty Flying fish roe that pops in your mouth



To get the plating perfect every time we had a company manufacture a special mold for us. it's a five compartment square mold that we first did in acetate so we could determine the right amount of each ingredient.
