Shame
on me, that I’ve never been to the Japanese restaurant Zuma before, I went to
Roka, one of my favourite restaurants and the sister restaurant of Zuma hundred times, but never made it to Zuma.
The
food is almost the same…stunning, delicious, individual.
But the atmosphere is slightly
different, Roka is a bit smaller and therefor cosier and more relaxed. Zuma is
located in South Kensington and the people who go there are definitely younger
and more dressed up than in Roka.
Tables need to be booked in advance, even if you want a table for two, especially at the weekends.
We arrived
there and got a table at the sushi bar, which is amazing, as you can watch how
the sushi is prepared. The service was lovely and pleasing, plus we got some
drinks and nibbles on the house.
This
time I went with a proper foodie so I didn’t need hours to decide what to
order, we just ordered almost the whole menu ;) Which was a good decision, because everything….and really everything was amazing. I enjoyed every single bite. The
food is prepared with so much love for detail and all senses of taste are
stimulated: salty, sweet, spicy or sour. I can only recommend going there and
enjoy a great dinner.
Now I posted so much about Asian restaurants...next time...another nationality, promise!
