cuisine: japanese
location: 5 raphael street, knightsbridge
ate: tasting menu for 1 = £95. I had been warned about the size of the tasting menu but nevertheless had to have it! black cod, kobe beef, sashimi, tuna tartare… all the must haves. indeed it was too much! although all the dishes were prepared to perfection, by the time we reached the kobe i was having trouble breathing, let alone try to swallow a whole steak! i would recommend that you order 1 tasting menu to share (although do not say this to the staff as they refused me) and then a main if there are two of you
drank: rippon pinot – very nice indeed
rating: i would definately return to Zuma; the decor, the food, the cocktails, the lucious chocolate fondant… simply amazing food. one of the more expensive meals but most certainly worth a taster
