Secrets from the Kitchen
If you are dining at Nobu for the first time, the chef recommends trying 3 or more of the menu's "Eight Highlights." The best way to enjoy this experience is to start with 2 or 3 cold dishes; then move on to 2 or 3 hot ones. Finally, end with some sushi and dessert. All these shared family style.
Here are some of the recommendations:
As a palate opener:
Yellowtail Jalapeno
Delicately sliced yellowtail sashimi with touches of garlic puree, adorned with jalapeno slices then crowned with cilantro and served with Japanese citrus soy sauce; 6 pieces in one order. The cilantro elevates every bite, enhancing the flavor.
For Salad:
Sashimi Salad Matsuhisa Dressing
7 pieces of rare grilled tuna sashimi salad sprinkled with black pepper on a bed of field greens and served with Nobu Matsuhisa signature onion soy dressing.
For Hot Dishes:
Rock Shrimp Tempura Creamy Spicy
Handful of battered shrimp "Tempura-ed" tossed with creamy spicy sauce, flavored with yuzu juice and pieces of shiitake mushrooms, served over a bed of greens drizzled with yuzu dressing. Best enjoyed together with the greens.
Black Cod Miso
Filet of black cod marinated in Den miso sauce for a few days then baked in oven and finished with a salamander broil.
