Inagiku at StarWorld Hotel Presents Japanese Culinary Art Menu

HONG KONG and MACAU, July 25, 2012 /PRNewswire-Asia/ -- Japan is the nation known for its desire for culinary excellence. From aesthetic presentation to harmony of flavors and ingredients, Japanese cuisine is made to impress diners and elevate their dining experience.

Japanese Culinary Art Menu of Inagiku at StarWorld Macau - Smoked Salmon with Sakura Wood

Deeply rooted in the Japanese dining culture, Inagiku at StarWorld Hotel is proud to present its newly designed menu which includes an array of new choices such as "Smoked Salmon with Sakura Wood", "Chicken and Glutinous Rice wrapped in Cabbage" and "Grilled Saga Beef rolled with Goose Liver Ishiyaki". Inagiku's signature dishes, "Inagiku Tempura Platter" and "Roasted Ox-tongue in Japanese Style", are preserved in the main menu to indulge guests, spiritually and sensually.

Smoked Salmon with Sakura Wood - MOP$180

The new menu truly reflects Japanese's pursuit of aesthetic perfection. "Smoked Salmon with Sakura wood" is one of the outstanding examples to showcase these traits. A flavorful salmon fillet and sakura wood smoke are sealed by a piece of delicate Japanese washi paper in a sleek crystal ball, trapping the smoke before the fillet is tasted. When diners open the washi lid, the snowy smoke slowly slips out from the crystal ball, followed by the woody scent of cherry blossom. This sensational presentation already arouses the diners before they even enjoy the juiciness of the lightly grilled fillet.  This medium rare cooked salmon is seasoned by Japanese sea salt and pepper and served with Japanese onions, home-made vinegar miso and fried sweet potatoes chips.

Chicken and Glutinous Rice Wrapped in Cabbage - MOP$100

Presented in a set of traditional Japanese lacquered bowls, the grassy green rolls look refreshing and appealing. This wonderful combination of traditional Japanese fine art and culinary excellence is made from the best glutinous rice from the Akita Prefecture. The chef mixes it with minced chicken and rolls the ingredients in the leaves of sweet cabbage. The dish is served in a parsley and white pepper soup, giving guests a light flavored yet tasty dining experience.

Grilled Saga Beef Rolled with Goose Liver Ishiyaki - MOP$380

Tasting Japanese cuisine itself is a form of culinary art appreciation; the chefs in Inagiku cook with premium ingredients and with great devotion, patience and passion. They follow a set of very strict rules and benchmarks in food preparation and presentation, even down to a single dish. The star-rated executive chef especially selected indigenous volcanic stones to serve the "Grilled saga beef rolled with goose liver Ishiyaki" to ensure thermal preservation of the best Wagyu Kobe beef. The scent and sound of roasting A5 Wagyu beef rolls filled with radish, foie gras, mushrooms and garlic delivers a multi-sense dining experience for guests.

Besides those innovative new dishes, "Inagiku Tempura Platter" and "Roasted Ox-tongue in Japanese style" remain the two signature dishes which symbolize Japanese's insistence on culinary excellence. 

Inagiku Tempura Platter - MOP$360

One of the most popular signature dishes of Inagiku, "Inagiku Tempura Platter", is deep fried with a premium, 100% natural sesame oil from Japan, which lightens the oiliness of a traditional Tempura. This dish is cooked and served a la minute so that guests can appreciate the crispness and a hint of the sesame oil flavor.

Roasted OX-Tongue in Japanese Style - MOP$208

The roasted ox-tongue is an exclusive signature dish of Inagiku in Macau and has attracted many diners to come from overseas to StarWorld Hotel to enjoy it. The chefs roll the meaty ox-tongue along a cedar plank before putting it onto the grill, so the ox–tongue is melt-in-your- mouth tender with a scent of cedar.
