This places will remain one of my top Kaiseki places in Japan. The skill of Maeda San is extraordinary, his flavor profile so prefect that I think he could serve me recycled plastic and make me love it.

Every dish has some added acidity in a very subtle way which changes the flavor without overpowering the core ingredient. It takes a fine calibrated palate to always hit exactly the right amount. He thus creates a very modern taste profile without loosing the tradition of a Kyoto Kaiseki meal.
Excellent! Less

Dinner last month with Hayley Evans (and unexpectedly Matt Abé of Restaurant Gordon Ramsey) at Mãos in London. Gareth Ward and the team from Ynyshir in Wales came for two nights to cook their menu in the Mãos kitchen with the assistance of Nuno Mendez, Eduardo Pellicano and their team. The food was, as expected from Gareth, flawless, delicious and focused on flavour rather than elaborate and unnecessary presentation. Ynyshir if you remember is the restaurant that me and Gerhard Huber went for lunch but pleaded with them to let us stay for dinner to enjoy the menu all over again, so it’s safe to say that I am a fan of the cooking there.
Mãos is kind of a supper club, with just one communal table seating 16 people. The kitchen is open for you to wander around and chat to the chefs as they cook and also the wine room so it’s kind of like a dinner party at someone’s house (what, don’t your friends have a wine room???♂️). I have been once before and enjoyed it thoroughly. You don’t have to ask me twice to hang out in the kitchen drinking wine. As with any communal table it’s a bit hit and miss with who you end up dining with so I was glad to click straight away with the people next to me and opposite me on that visit.
The company during this visit was also great (Hayley ?) and it was a pleasant surprise to be sharing the table with Matt Abé, the head chef at Royal Hospital Road for the evening. Although slightly annoying to have your conversation with him interrupted every few minutes by a lady saying things like “Oh you’re a cook are you? I love to cook. Do you cook pies? I have a great recipe for steak & kidney pie. What’s your email? Ill send it to you.” (Matt had the patience of a saint).
I think putting Gareth’s team in to Mãos was great and gives them some more exposure in the capital, (not that he needs it really as Ynyshir is a tough reservation now) of course, as I’ve said the food was great but the vibe did feel a little weird at times. Just purely because Ynyshir has a lively vibrant atmosphere (they have a DJ now during some services) with an emphasis on “Fun dine not Fine dine” and that’s difficult to put across in someone else’s restaurant while also trying to collaborate with them during the service. And with a communal table, everyone is a bit more focused on having a dinner party rather than a restaurant experience I guess.
That’s no disservice to the Mãos team who were fantastic. I would and will go back to both restaurants again as soon as I can. Less

Albacora de Marbella, kumquat y mostaza. Demasiado tiempo sin probar la personalísima cocina de Mauricio Giovanini en su @messinarestaurante . Con un servicio de sala impecable comandado por Pia Ninci y muchos detalles que justifican
esa estrella que luce en su puerta.

Paletilla de chivo lechal asada y un excelente Remírez de Ganuza 2012.
Estupendo almuerzo y mejor compañía en Cándida (Alameda, Málaga). Javier Capitán se esfuerza por conseguir la mejor materia prima y ponerla a disposición de una clientela que sabe apreciarla y abarrota sus comedores.. Pescados y mariscos de calidad, carnes seleccionadas, unas instalaciones cómodas, ejemplares, una bodega apreciable, sobre todo en tintos clásicos, y muy buenos detalles en un servicio profesional y amable. Da gusto encontrar restaurantes con un éxito así en estos tiempos. Para tener en la agenda. @rtecandida Less
