Momofuku Seiobo


It’s been a while since I blogged about food but if truth be told I’m eating out less now than I used to. Here are some photos from a 10-course lunch at Momofuku Seiobo. The much-anticipated pork bun did not blow me away at all, though its all too familiar flavours reminded me of the ones I used to have as a kid. It was perfectly made of course, but kind of left me wondering what the fuss is all about. The mains of mulloway with smoked roe and pork neck with pear were stellar, as was the rather odd but good piccalilli and rye dessert.. and of course who can not possibly like a caramelised pork fat donut!?

1. Potatoes with watercress 2. Kingfish sashimi with rhubarb and salt bush 3. Zucchini with black garlic puree and slow-cooked egg yolk 4. Plating 5. Caramelised pork fat donut 6. Happy!

    Oh my god, there is such a thing as a pork fat doughnut?! Despite being vegetarian, I do still really miss bacon & my favourite part is the fat… this is making me feel like such a bad one, I’m literally salivating at the thought of it! Haha!
    The rest looks really amazing too, especially the first dish, I have a bit of an addiction to watercress!

    Oh, it all looks divine! And as always, fabulous photography :) I too haven’t eaten out much, or not at nice places anyway. Only just discovered the Cef’s Table on Tuesday night recently at Westfield. Doh.

    YUMY! A 10 course lunch? I can only imagine what dinner is like. Sorry to hear the pork bun wasn’t exactly what you had hoped for.
