One Star: High quality cooking
‘Gokan’ means ‘five senses’, and the menu engages all five. You’ll notice the energy and passion in the kitchen as items are patiently grilled over charcoal and rice is cooked in a wood-fuelled stove. Look closely – there’s remarkable creativity concealed in the cuisine. For example, sashimi of amberjack is garnished with grated daikon radish and thick starchy sauce of bonito soup stock, an idea inspired directly by ‘buri-daikon’, which is amberjack and daikon radish simmered in soy sauce. Meals wrap up with rice, lovingly served in homemade bowls; each dish has a tale to tell. Tuck in with all five senses.
