My maki appetizer was a roll of one my favourites, kamikaze, with its unbeatable tempura, avocado, salmon and hot sauce combo. |
Main course was fillet of beef with a wild mushroom mousse, wasabi and potato rosti, wilted pak-choi and tempura vegetables and hoi-sin jus. |
We didn't eat things like fish sticks at my house, unless they were freshly cut strips dipped in a tempura style batter. |
In Japanese cuisine, green shiso is added to sushi, soups, salads, sashimi, and tempura. |
But Japanese food is not only about sushi, it's also about noodles, soup, fish, tofu, dumplings and tempura, for a start. |
Dinner menu starters included pan fried breast of pigeon with pear tempura and gazpacho dressing, and baked Brie with apple and walnut compote. |
