Chef’s Table at @kiokubyendo @kazutoshi.endo @theowo.london 🍣🇯🇵🥷
-
One of the only places in London for Japanese fine dining. The chefs table here is stunning. A beautifully sky-lit 10-seater, nestled just off the restaurants main kitchen with a view directly onto the workstation. To start, a lovely mix of intricate small plates and nigiris crafted by Michelin-starred Endo-san and his team. The doubled-up chutoro nigiri was incredible - first time trying something like this. The tuna is poached, sliced and pressed into form before being licked with their complex soy. The texture of the bite is hard to describe, but one of the best single nigiris I’ve eaten. That Portuguese tuna is unreal. If you’ve ever eaten in Endo-San’s presence, you’ll understand how he has a very unique and subtle ability to elevate the entire dining experience. A true master of hospitality. Fun, entertaining but always focused on the food and experience. The chawanmushi here was special - king crab, ginger kefir, yuzu and caviar. Sweet, earthy and creamy egg custard. Really moreish and comforting to eat. Lots of dishes to talk about from Kioku: the Wagyu with eggplant and miso, the charsiu pork ramen ravioli, the tuna tartare crisp.. all so delicious with interesting layers of ingredients worked into each of them. A chefs table worth booking! #notoriousfoodie 🙅🏽‍♂️
