NOBU CHEF IN TEL AVIV!!! LIMA NIPPO!

The dashing chef Chris Golding of Nobu and Zuma restaurants is now in Tel Aviv!! Aren't we lucky!! We arrived at Lima Nippo excited to sample Chris's Peruvian Japanese Cuisine called Nikkei.

Lima Nippo is located in the heart of Jaffa, Tel Aviv, which is turning tres trendy these days. The restaurant is decorated very chic yet cozy, dimly lit, soft velvet couches which are very comfortable if you are wearing a mini dress, edgy, NY style and basically a sexy vibe.

We were invited to try the new summer menu!

The handsome charming chef Chris (sorry, don't get excited ladies, he is taken by an Israeli girl) personally served us each of his delectable dishes. He started us off with Plantain Chips with tartare Musar, Tuna and Salmon, Mixed Ceviche with Grapes and Fresh Almonds,  fresh and melts in your mouth, delicious.Next he presented us with the Sea Bass Tartar with cucumber and avocado, Tempura Seabass with yellow Chilli dressing and Burnt tomato salsa-was totally sublime and comforting , Cauliflower anticucho-flawless , Nasu Miso with pickled mushrooms, Beef Fillet crushed purple potatoes - So amazing, it was as if we had a party in our mouths, Marinated tomatoes and spicy beetroot, Sushi - Spicy beef with crispy fried shallots, salmon and avocado- perfection.
For our sweet tooth we were treated to : Pistachio and olive oil cake, frozen berries and white chocolate- so wonderfully succulent it is sinful,Chocolate cremeux, whisky, orange and cherries- creamy and heavenly.

                       The delicious and super strong but sweet cocktails we drank-  SICHUAN SIDECAR- Hennessy VS Cognac, fresh raspberries, elderflower, lime &Sichuan pepper- It gets you in the mood!

First we eat ,then we do everything else!
