Melt in your mouth wagyu.īincho Boss is an absolute gem and one of the best Japanese dining experiences in Melbourne. The highlight for me is the Salt crusted wagyu which comes with a touch of theatre as the crust is broken before you at the table. Sreamed prawn dumplings were delicate and burst with flavour. Turkey meatballs were an unexpected highlight, perfect with sake. Salmon sashimi is super fresh and a compelling dish. The bincho factor comes into play in that a bincho is about grilling over high quality charcoal in their earthen konro grill. With this sort of pedigree it's no wonder the menu hits the high notes. Both were previously at Kisume, so they bring a wealth of Japanese knowledge and authenticity to Bincho Boss. Multi award-winning Executive Chef, Tomotaka Ishizuka and Head Chef, Keiji Ishida are the bosses of the kitchen. Tasty Smoked duck breast was delicious melt in your mouth, a feature of the Bincho concept, enhanced with an exceptional sauce. One of Melbourne's best restaurants, let alone best Japanese restaurants.īincho Boss is a fabulous casual style Japanese izakaya restaurant that brings innovation and flair without the high end prices. The interior is epic but muted, dignified, almost filmic, suffusing the restaurant with texture, tone and a sense of mystery. Even before entering the dining room, Ishizuka’s sense of place and occasion come to the fore with a large backlit lantern egg greeting diners, sweeping them in and signalling the narrative about to unfold. A basement restaurant that is somehow conservative and radical at once. There's an intimacy about Ishizuka as it only serves 16 diners at night. The ultimate bento box? You can enjoy this limited edition (at time of writing) bento box using the freshest ingredients at home! The menu is top notch and is constantly evolving bringing in seasonality and access to the finest of produce. Ishizuka Japanese kaiseki restaurant beautifully ties together design and the dining experience and features a kaiseki style of dining. Pan fried Hapuka, Sake poached mussel, Mozuku, Chinese cauliflower, snow pea, pink rice cracker, Ponzu butter sauce. Kenji excels with the Ninmono Japanese pumpkin & ricotta wonton tortellini, pea smash, Tempura Ashitaba leaf, soy burdock cream sauce a great example of fusion. Sushi roll of grilled Anago eel, Mitsuba omelette, cucumber, buckwheat soy sauce is a fabulous sushi dish. Kenji Ito is a chef of 23 years who first sharpened his knives at the renowned Tsuji Culinary Institute in Tokyo, and then went on to refine his skills in Akasaka and Ginza.
What critics are heralding is the use of produce from Chef Kenji Ito's private garden to feature in dishes, as well as the fine technique and element of fusion done well.
The food does the talking, as there is little signage or fanfare surrounding this gem away from the main strip in Fitzroy. Wa Kenbo has captured the imagination since it burst onto the scene in 2018.
Guests can enjoy dishes that draw on the purity and exacting nature of Japanese food but are uniquely Australian (nearly 100 per cent of the menu features produce from Australia and New Zealand). One top Australian critic told me this was the best sashimi he had ever tasted in the world. The foie gras option was a luxe touch of indulgence. We love the lunch Bento Boxes out of this world. Table at Kisume is an exclusive experience of Japanese food and ambience at its best.

Kisume is a contemporary Japanese dining experience on the ground and basement levels, but its the Table at Kisume that steals the show on the first floor, a unique omakase-style dining experience seating just 12, two private dining rooms with a similar bespoke offering, plus the Chablis Bar, the first such bar in Australia. Iconic Chris Lucas has produced a distinctive restaurant different to Chin Chin et al, brimming with style and class overdrive. We have enjoyed one soiree here and look forward to many more. Kisume means pure obsession with beauty and it's the whole package that impresses indeed it's world class.
