(Pst this is so one of Ferran Adria's favorite tapas spots in the city) Must get: the sweet egg with salmon, foie gras on toast and pate onion and truffled oil!!

It is better than katz and made only with the best cut of meat – deckle, a highly marbled tender part of brisket (brisket nirvana!). The chunks of luscious pastrami are so buttery that every bite melts in your mouth

This was essentially just a warm cookie with ice cold milk on the side served in cute little glass bottles. I think I could have recreated this dessert by popping a cookie in a microwave and pouring a glass of milk out of my fridge :(

There were some really outstanding dishes like this wagyu beef...my biggest gripes were that none of the sushi courses stood out and the chawanmushi tasted like something I could get at a normal neighborhood sushi joint.

found slightly too dry but the ginger and sambal sauces helped add a nice flavor to the pork. On the other hand, the peanut noodles were amazing! The noodles were al dente and just the right amount of chewy.

he tea itself was high quality and the warm scones were delicious; however, I didn’t enjoy the savory tea sandwiches or the tiered dessert plate. For $52, I don’t think I would come back here again and will try a different place next time!

we felt like it was definitely more of a novelty item than a must-have. For $31, it was also on the pricey side for an appetizer! I think I prefer my Toro fatty and as a whole piece rather than chopped up and slightly soggy.
