To celebrate its latest lunch menu, Nobu Kuala Lumpur adds a modern touch.
Matsuhisa and joining its Sushi Master Class left me with high expectations for the restaurant’s new lunch offerings.
The “Noon at Nobu” lunch menu is created by executive chef Philip Leong. It comprises a variety of decadent meals and combinations such as the Nobu style set lunch, pre-fixed menu, bento box, cold and hot dishes, soups and noodles, desserts and more.
Featuring fresh ingredients and Nobu’s signature Japanese touch and Peruvian influences, the lunch menu features Lobster Wasabi Pepper set for seafood lovers and Cauliflower Steak with Corn Salsa set for guests who prefer vegetarian.
Fans of red meat can dine on the tender Beef Tenderloin set and luxurious Dry Age Prime Rib Eye set. The set lunch ranges from RM58 to RM145 and accompanied by miso soup, salad, tempura, handmade Nobu biscuits and complimentary green tea.
Also served with miso soup and green tea, the pre-fixed set is priced at RM168 and comprises an appetiser, main course and dessert. The Umami Chicken Kara-age is a delicious addition to the collection of mouth-watering appetiser options while the Yogurt Sub Zero becomes newly available under the dessert selections to complete the meal.
If you are looking for a complete set, Butter Lettuce Salad Dry Miso, Beef Tenderloin Wasabi Pepper and Green Tea Fiji Shave ice would be a perfect lunch date.
To start the course, the olive oil, truffle and cheese on the salad was a nice touch. The main course was elevated by the juicy and soft beef tenderloin. It’s a match made in heaven with wasabi pepper as it gives a hint of spiciness accompanied by the medium-rare meat. In the end, the cold and soft green tea kakigōri was a nice palette cleanser.
Guests can also opt for the Nobu style bento box priced at RM175. Included are the signature Nobu dishes such as Sashimi Salad with Matsuhisa Dressing, fresh Assorted Sushi, crispy Rock Shrimp Tempura with Butter Ponzu, the Nobu signature Black Cod Miso and the aromatic Vegetable Spicy Garlic with Rice.
