About an hour's drive from Kagoshima City, I visited SENTI.U in Kanoya for the first time.It’s located in quite an unexpected spot!- Kōika (squid) with fuki (butterbur) and onion extract- Isaki (snapper) with goya (bitter melon), peanut tofu, and salted pork back fat- Focaccia- Namikuda Hige Ebi (mantis shrimp) with salted sea urchin, red bell pepper, and corn silk- Organic eel with Tarumi jasmine rice- Kasago (rockfish) with tsurumurasaki (a type of vegetable)- Ayu (sweetfish) with corn and kush basil- Sawagani (freshwater crab) risotto- Purple sea urchin pasta with dried tomatoes and a tangy broth- Sarugaku pork loin with seasonal vegetables- GelatoThe restaurant's ambiance was lovely, and the service provided by the couple was exceptional, creating a very comfortable space.The ingredients were of high quality. However, some combinations left the flavors a bit muddled, which made me feel slightly less satisfied.The Kōika, Namikuda Hige Ebi, Ayu, and Focaccia were delicious.For four people, the pairing came to just under JPY 120,000.It was a great meal!
