WASABI RESTAURANT

East meets west. FOOD Wasabi’s extensive menu features an eclectic mix of flavours, spanning various Asian cuisines and countries. For starters, try the steamed gao dumplings with spinach and cream cheese wrapped in rice pastry. Those looking for a sushi fix can opt for the creamy rock shrimp California, dragon rolls or the springbok carpaccio roses served with camembert, avo and kewpie mayo. Look to the grill for mains; the Wagyu burger is a standout – a beautifully juicy 200g patty topped with just-about-to-melt emmenthaler. End with a decadent delight of deep-fried Bar-One nuggets served with caramel sauce and strawberry sorbet. DRINKS The wine menu offers a great selection of local and international wines. Each menu item is accompanied by a suggestion of the best-suited varietal. SERVICE A lovely, friendly team with a good understanding of the expansive menu. AMBIENCE The space is clean-cut and elegant, with low lighting and darker tones. (SST)
