Kabuki Wellington @ Madrid

Kabuki Wellington; one Michelin star restaurant, the space of Ricardo Sanz and probably one of the best place in Spain when it comes to Japanese food.


Behind the enormous bar, Ricardo Sanz...


and his team...


let's start...

This are unmistakable THE signature dishes:


the butterfish with white truffle cream...


otoro served a-la Jamón ibérico and literally melt...


langostino, scallops and the Kobe mini-burger...

Everything was simply exquisite and ideal twist between Mediterranean and Japanese kitchen. The butterfish with white truffle was perfect, the fish fresh, the Kobe mini-burger so tasteful and fun… but otoro was pure joy and in my opinion, as close as possible to gastronomic perfection.

Aright, I admit I've become a sushi snob long before I’ve eat in Kabuki, but Ricardo Sanz definitely served for me a sushi and sashimi that has changed my conception on how sushi can taste; a master of sushi and in combination of the spacious and yet minimalist restaurant... well, it is a kind of magic.

If you up to for a desert, just go for Yofu dessert.

Highly Recommended.
