Omakase at Hōseki @hosekisugiyama821 @bvlgarihotels 🍣🥷
-
One of only a few authentic omakase restaurants in Dubai. Hōseki has maintained its 1 Michelin star for the last 3 years and is led by Masahiro Sugiyama. The restaurant takes up most of the 4th floor at the hotel and with only 9 seats, it’s a got a really intimate vibe. Most of the ingredients are flown in daily from Japan, so you can expect the very best produce worked into every course. Sugiyama-san’s control over the temperature of the shari is really spot on. Perfectly warm grains of rice that are well seasoned and just melt on the tongue. Loved the days selection of fish - lots of variety. The ika was buttery soft, not the usual bite that I like but a totally different, velvety texture to it. Seasoned only with sea salt and wasabi. So delicious. Lots of tuna this evening. He served a starter of Kama-toro with Japanese greens with was just amazing. The Kama-toro is rarest part of the tuna as it makes up just a few % of the fish in weight. It’s from the cheek and is ridiculously marbled and fatty. More mature in flavour and melt in the mouth than your typical otoro. So tasty. The Hokkaido bafun uni was sweet and almost earthy in flavour. Nice and cold with such a creamy texture. Loved it. All of the courses here were great. For the price though, I don’t know, it’s like double to triple some of the best omakase restaurants in London - but there’s no denying the quality. It’s great sushi and the small plates were intricate and really well thought out! #notoriousfoodie 🙅🏽‍♂️
