Sea Saw Scottsdale AZ
/Had the great pleasure of eating at Sea Saw in Old Town Phoenix. We had eaten there a few years ago (for my birthday), but figured that "Saturday" would have to be the special occassion this time. The meal was wonderful. Many of the dishes were among the best things I have ever tasted. Overwhelmingly, the fish was amongst the freshest I have ever tasted.
Here is what we ate:
White Fish Carpacio - this is a white fish (don't know which variety), in a delicious broth with garlic, sesami seeds, and pepper. It comes with a side of garlic bread "nuggets" which are perfect to mop up every last bite of the delicious sauce.
Kinme (special of the day) - It was cooked fish on a slice of cucumber, with a wonderful sauce.
Lamb Chops - I think these might be a little out of place with their normal menu. It was 4 small charred peices of leg of lamb with a mango chutney, and sauce that tasted quite a bit like "bar-b-q" sauce (but I am sure was much more fancy than that).
Black cod marinated in miso, with a side of slaw.
Himachi - on top of grapefruit and avacodo, with micro-greens in center. I have hamachi at pretty much every sushi restaurant I ever go to. This was the best peice of hamachi I have ever had. It melted in your mouth (and the accompianments accentuated the flavor, without overpowering it).
Gravalax with almond, and pecorino-ramano, on top of a baslamic and basil oil. (Really Crudo)
Drank: Prosecco
