Closest thing to Japan 🇯🇵 I’ve had in a while. What was just a 4.5 hour flight away now seems unthinkable. Good thing we have restaurants like @sushiyoshihk and chefs like Hiroshi-san to remind us of the amazing food, culture, and ingredients Japan has to offer.
Michelin-starred Chef Hiroki is one of the first internationally renowned Japanese chefs to return to the city during the pandemic to unveil his new 19-course menu. Unlike traditional sushi chefs, Chef Hiroki experiments with modern cooking techniques with the best Japanese ingredients making his Omakase menu one of a kind.
1️⃣ Pictured is Hiroki’s kaki sushi aka the best oyster 🦪 I’ve ever eaten — sous vide paired with his signature sweet soy sauce.
2️⃣ Akagai / Blood Clam — instead of using rice, Chef Hiroki creates a nigiri that elevates the texture of yam with egg yolk
