Morimoto Las Vegas

With Japanese artwork, photographs, sculptures, paintings, and a cherry blossom wall, celebrity chef Masaharu Morimoto's restaurant at MGM Grand Hotel & Casino pays homage to his homeland of Japan. Toplist recommends starting your experience at the sushi bar, where you can sample a variety of fresh seafood flown in daily from around the world, such as fatty tuna from Spain, salmon from Canada, and red snapper from Japan. You should continue the meal with carpaccio of American Wagyu beef with ginger, sweet garlic, and yuzu soy; steamed oyster with seared foie gras and house-made teriyaki; and kakuni, 10-hour braised pork belly with scallop-infused rice congee.

Moving on to the teppan table, bouillabaisse with grilled shrimp, crab, fish, and scallop added to broth steamed on the grill in a bag made of fata paper is pleasant surprise for you. The ultimate taste experience, however, belongs to the Japanese A5 sukiyaki with a soft poached egg for a decadent combination of protein and richness. Morimoto-brewed beer and sake, such as Morimoto Hazelnut Ale and Junmai Ginjo Sake, complement the menu, as does fine wine, such as the Hill Family Estate Stewart Ranch Albarino, of which only 300 cases were produced and purchased by Morimoto. You should try their famous dish-the fiery chocolate tart for a pyrotechnic finish: marshmallow, salty caramel ganache, dark chocolate sorbet, and spiced rum that is ignited when served.
