Ormeggio At The Spit (Mosman Sydney)

We took advantage of the ‘Stress Less Sunday’ menu offered by Ormeggio At The Spit for a, well, relaxed dinner on a warm Sunday night. We picked the 4 course menu at the time of the booking.

All 4 dishes were beautifully presented and delicious. Kangaroo tartare had the right level of texture and not too tough. The eggplant tortellini had a subtle smokiness which complement well with the cheese sauce. Wagyu steak was extremely tender and worked well with the sesame puree. And the cardamom ice-cream dessert was a revelation with coffee powder.

If only the portion was bigger…

Mino Japanese Restaurant (Mosman)

I have never had the opportunity to try a Kaiseki – a Japanese style banquet that is a showcase of the chef’s skills. Off we went to Mino Japanese Restaurant at Mosman for Sunday lunch when we knew about their Kaiseki menus.

Over 6 courses, we sampled over 15 different style of cooking. All the mini dishes in the entrée platter have great balance of flavours and together formed a wonderful experience, while the Wagyu steak was a standout main course.

At $59, it sure matches many high end degustation menus offered by restaurants in the area.
