The Mayfair restaurants of two Japanese chefs have been awarded two Michelin stars in The Michelin Guide Great Britain & Ireland 2016, the Financial Times reported on 18 September.
Sushi chef Mitsuhiro Araki, who closed his famous sushi bar in Ginza, Chuo Ward, to establish The Araki in London, offers an 11-course omakase (chef’s special) menu at a cost of £300 per person.
Meanwhile, Kyoto-inspired restaurant Umu, which is home to executive chef Yoshinori Ishii, includes a £115 course menu that features charcoal-grilled game with foie gras and aged sake puree, topped with matcha green tea sweet soy sauce.
