Kasai

One of the dishes diners recall from the start of a meal is brioche filled with prosciutto and butter. Its soft crumb brings together the ham’s saltiness and the richness of butter, setting an inviting tone from the first bite.

Reports describe courses at Kasai that continue from this opening bite through appetisers, pasta, a main course and dessert. The combinations and generous variety have also made an impression. One diner particularly remembered a dinner featuring chilled pasta with bigfin reef squid and house-made karasumi, or cured mullet roe. Others have enjoyed the chilled pasta and soup, finding plenty to appreciate in the changing dishes throughout the meal.

Several diners have also enjoyed the house-made focaccia between courses. One specific comment praised the fish dish’s savoury surface and sauce; focaccia makes a good companion for savouring the sauce, too.

Drinks are another part of the experience to consider. Diners have reported enjoying wine pairings, and the menu lists sparkling, white and red wines by the glass, as well as bottles focused on Italian and Burgundy selections. Tea pairings are another option mentioned by diners, offering a different way to match a drink with the meal.

Dinner reservations are available and recommended. For a meal that moves from the prosciutto brioche to pasta, bread and considered drink pairings, booking ahead is a good idea.
