Miso Japanese and Thai Restaurant — Restaurant in Maitama

I visited Miso to try out their Shabu Shabu. Miso is an upscale Japanese and Thai restaurant which offers one of the finest scenic rooftop views in Abuja.

So what do we think: THE EXPERIENCE Shabu Shabu is a Japanese hot pot dish that features sliced meat and veggies. The marinated meat is served raw and is cooked at the table in a hot pot or skillet. This gives you the option to have your preferred doneness.The Chef spoke about the different meat and how it was seasoned and infused with spices, garlic, chilli, mustard and soya. He also explained that shabu shabu is a food experience that's great for bonding and sharing. Typically, phones and gadgets should be abandoned when it's time for eating it. Our host was very accommodating and put us through the cooking process.

THE FOOD For starters, I had a sweet corn soup with homemade chicken meat balls. The soup was rich, tasty and had a subtle kick of heat. We also had goat meat, chicken, beef, prawn and orange skewers, sausage and pineapple skewers, fish, garlic fried rice and an array of sauces like bbq, pepper, chilli and garlic. All the meat was nicely seasoned except the beef which was a bit overpowering and salty. We particularly liked the chicken and how well the rice paired with the Nigerian pepper sauce. Finally for drinks, we enjoyed some pints of ice cold Heineken. The experience was lovely and a unique way of having a meal. Shabu Shabu at Miso cost about 15,000 naira per head. Shabu Shabu is best shared with friends or family and in my own case, I got to share it with some food...

The restaurant provided a sweeping view of the most beautiful parts of Abuja. Simply sitting here is a treat for the eyes and soul.

There are Japanese and thai dishes on the menu, including sushi. Prices are quite high and quantities rather small. In keeping with Japanese palate, the salmon sushi I had was rich but not particularly flavourful which is the only reason the restaurant doesn't get 5 stars.

There was beautiful, subdued music playing and a football match projected on the wall with the volume turned low. I was very impressed with how much attention was given to the...
