MATSUBISHI

This teppanyaki spot is rather unassuming in its décor, and its out-ofthe-way locale translates to easy reservations, but that doesn’t mean the restaurant isn’t up to impress. Patrons can choose between large tables—those next to the large harbour-facing windows are great for dinner with a view—or, for the full teppanyaki experience, a seat by the grill. Sushi and sashimi are well represented and of very high standard, but it’s the iron griddle you should have your focus on. Seafood such as scallops and prawns are skilfully cooked and delicately browned, and so is a tangy dish of aubergine kissed with white and red miso. The grilled cod is perhaps the highlight, however: tender and well-seasoned, it has an almost buttery, melt-in-the-mouth texture. Service is extremely attentive, particularly in the timing and delivery of the different courses. The drink menu, presented on IPADS, is extensive and centred around an impressive sake selection; but wine lovers won’t be disappointed either, with remarkable choices and a private collection.
