🍱 Brooklyn’s Hidden Kaiseki | A Feast for the Eyes 🌟
This little-known kaiseki restaurant in Brooklyn, run by a Polish chef, follows the wabi-sabi aesthetic — dim lighting, rustic pottery, and minimalist plating. 🌿🌟 The atmosphere is incredibly immersive. Although the prices aren’t high, the portions are so delicate that they leave you a bit speechless... maybe it’s just my big appetite... After finishing 10 courses, I still felt like a wolf that quickly devoured a basket of soup dumplings. Key Memories: Truffle Onsen Egg The melt-in-your-mouth liquidity is amazing. The truffle flavor isn’t strong, but the texture is unbeatable! 🍡 🥩 Wagyu with Potato The fat feels like silk on the tongue, but just two pieces can be quite greasy. 🍖 🍡 Strawberry Mochi Warm mochi with a cool filling — a delightful contrast! 🍒 Overall, nothing left a deep impression, but since it’s a non-profit restaurant, it’s hard to be too critical. The ingredients are generally good, and the sashimi is fresh enough, but don’t expect to be full. Coming here is more about the experience. 📍 Ikigai 💰 $185 for 10 courses #NewYork
