I had dinner here once and it was phenomenal, so I was really excited to see they were publishing a cookbook. The dishes I enjoyed at the restaurant are all in here, particularly the beef short ribs and the mushroom udon soup.These recipes are quite demanding of your time, patience, and pocketbook. Even recipes that look simple actually involve a lot of mini-steps to get to the final dish. To test this cookbook, I settled on making the mushroom udon soup, because it seemed like a cheaper entry point than the beef short ribs. Not to say that all the mushrooms called for by the recipe were necessarily cheap. We started at about 5 or 5:30, and with two people prepping/cooking the entire time, dinner was ready just after 7:30pm. The dish was not exactly what I remembered it tasting like, but it was about 90% as good as I remembered, which is still really incredible. Next, I plan to test the short ribs recipe and the famous chocolate candy bar recipe.
Finally, written recipes that are easy to follow. I'm so impressed with the thought that went into writing recipes that you're average cook could understand. A wine pairing suggestion comes with each recipe, love that! Each recipe comes with a picture and a final paragraph stated "at service" that explains plating and presentation details. Now I look like the gourmet chef. I own many recipe books but never one that I wanted to make every recipe listed. I'm so glad it arrived just in time for my holiday meal planning.
Beautiful book
