| - What a lovely experience we had tonight at Miku. This is a beautiful, pristine space with outstanding service.
We decided to try the five course dinner, lots of variety and the chance to try some goodies not on the menu.
The first course:
Two different oysters - good
One scallop with bacon jam - yum!
Mixed sashimi and dainty balls of sushi - perfect, golden eyed snapper was awesome
Second course
Bouillabaisse with calamari, sablefish, mussels and the most incredible saffron-tomato broth
Third course
Medium prime rib with a nice sauce, delicious mushrooms sautéed with sake and moron, pickled wasabi. Delicious
Fourth course
Six pieces of sushi, including their famous torched pieces and some not on the regular menu. The golden eyed snapper was fantastic.
Fifth course
Green tea opera cake, matcha ice cream and mascarpone/tofu over fruit. I'm not a fan of green tea/matcha in sweets, but this was well done. I traded my ice cream across the table for more of the mousse like mascarpone with fruit.
Wine: Stonebird Sauvignon Blanc from New Zealand was a perfect complement.
All in all, excellent dinner. Would return again for a splurge dinner.
