Wow what a meal. I didn't really feel like cooking tonight so I just typed "restaurant" into google and picked a place 3 blocks away.
For those of you who don't know, I don't live in the trendiest nor nicest barrio so I completely expected some budget, run of the mill asian themed grill.
Not the case.
The restaurant is called Yuki and is located at Pasco 740 and hands down is the best Japanese food I've had in Buenos Aires. At 130 pesos the 7 course tasting menu was a serious value and I had my doubts I could finish it. Whoever decided that tasting menus should have small portions, obviously didn't tell these people.
I wish I could tell you guys about everything I had but my Japanese is non existent and my recognition of japanese plates is similarly lacking. But the miso soup was excellent. The grilled salmon fillet was surprisingly exceptional; not over cooked in the slightest. Sashimi was buttery and clearly very fresh.
Mmm, still enjoying my residual food coma.
