Day 173

Tuesday 25 Feb 2014

Sometimes you just need to have a meal with a friend that breaks the bank and fills the stomach and soul with yumminess.

Josephine and I hit up Momofuku Seiōbo at The Star casino complex here in Sydney. Momofuku means lucky peach (hence the logo!).

Do yourself a favor and do it. The degustation menu was to die for.

Snacks – smoked eel, crab, zucchini
Parson’s Nose – think pork crackle but better
Steamed Pork Bun
Pig’s Blood – mushroom dish
Wagyu beef – radish and fermented black bean
Beetroot
Flounder
Abalone
Lamb
Cheese – Holy Goat!
Sorrel ice cream dish
Almond ice cream dish
CARAMELIZED PORK THAT YOU ATE WITH HANDS TO FINSH

And each dish came with a wine pairing.

Heaven in a restaurant. Absolutely perfect.
