Morimoto Restaurant


Well, after many trips to Philadelphia, Peter and I finally made it to Morimoto, run by Iron Chef Japanese Masaharu Morimoto who became famous while working at Nobu, where I've been three times in Las Vegas. The menu is similar, Peter and I split the omakase tasting menu. The menu is 9 courses, featuring:
• Toro tartar with caviar and scalions
• Japanese oysters three ways, with thai, salsa and ceviche dressing
• New style sashimi with hot sesame and olive oil (the best)
• Seared young yellowtail salad
• Exotic citrus sorbet
• Lobster with Chef's special seasoning and citrus crème fraîche
• Kobe beeef and foie gras with yams
• six pieces of sushi including toro, hamachi, bluefin, sardine and giant clam
• passion fruit sorbet and chocolate soup
