Hands down. Steve and Christina, our foodie, well travelled friends were also blown away and agreed that we will be talking about this meal for years to come. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It was Florek&#8217;s 42nd birthday on Saturday. About 3 months ago I decided that I&#8217;ll burn some of my savings and we&#8217;ll go to Dinings for a birthday treat. What I didn&#8217;t anticipate was Masaki, my former boss, would treat us like royalty, give a table for as long as we wanted and serve his most amazing food to us. We were all lost for words, it was that good. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Everything that arrived at the table was looking stunning and was served in generous amount for 4 people, we didn&#8217;t have to be slicing things and sharing pieces of sashimi and such. We started with Dinings legendary tartar chips, some with wagyu, some with tuna, some with scallops. Some wonderful sashimi, where scallop stood out for me, might have been the best scallop ever( hand dived, Cornish). Then dover sole sashimi with sooooo much truffles we started to chuckle. Amazing. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><a href=\"https:\/\/blogs.xs4all.co.uk\/tablefortwo\/files\/2022\/04\/PXL_20220409_182902487.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"640\" height=\"480\" src=\"https:\/\/blogs.xs4all.co.uk\/tablefortwo\/files\/2022\/04\/PXL_20220409_182902487.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-3163\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blogs.xs4all.co.uk\/tablefortwo\/files\/2022\/04\/PXL_20220409_182902487.jpg 640w, https:\/\/blogs.xs4all.co.uk\/tablefortwo\/files\/2022\/04\/PXL_20220409_182902487-300x225.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Then the mini burger buns, I don&#8217;t think they lasted on the table beyond 3 minutes, ours were extra special with grilled wagyu and foie gras mousse, but the lobster and caviar ones were not too shabby either.
