This month Mayfair’s Albemarle street welcomes Taku, an Omakase restaurant headed up by Chef Takuya Watanabe (Taku), formerly of Jin, the first sushi omakase in Paris to receive a Michelin star.
Taku held 1* at Jin Paris for consecutive 10 years and now brings the most traditional form of sushi making, to London. ‘edomai’ sushi style – developed by street sellers in old Edo, now Tokyo – a method in which fresh fish is cured in vinegar to bring out umami flavours.
This 16-cover restaurant will highlight the best ingredients that the British Isles has to offer in a traditional yet modern omakase setting. The three-tasting menu will be based on seasonal produce and daily catches with fine and rare wines, champagnes and speciality sakes.
Dinners should expect a fully interactive dining experience with the chefs whilst enjoying the theatre of the kitchen and the creation of each plate.
Location: 36 Albemarle Street, London W1S 4JE
