City of Dreams Manila highlights tempting new-style Japanese, Filipino, and Southeast Asian treats

Nobu Manila

The restaurant’s seasonal menu lets diners delve deeper into the signature Nobu-style experience popularized by celebrity chef Nobu Matsuhisa that is well loved by A-list international celebrities, with an expertly curated eight-course Japanese-Peruvian menu. Preceded by the customary zensai (chef’s choice of appetizer), the first course of crispy salmon with teriyaki aioliis followed by an assortment of sushi. The tasting menu continues with ama abi (sweet shrimp) and engawa (fluke fin)  with cucumber, red onions, tomato salsa, spicy yuzu dressing and soy salt; hokkigai (surf clam) salad roll with carrot karashi su miso (KSM – tart miso mustard sauce) dressing, honey lemon, and fried shitake mushroom; pan-seared seabass with edamame miso puree, and confit vegetables; Australian lamb chop with rosemary miso, roasted seasonal vegetables, and potato korokke (croquette); and asari clam soup with wakame (seaweed), carrots, enoki mushroom, sansho pepper, and layu oil (Japanese chili oil). Sesame panna cotta with maple toffee crisps, mango passion fruit sorbet, and green tea crumble provides a sweet conclusion to the meal.
