Gourmet Guide Description

The Japanese welcome ‘irasshaimase’ resonates in the triple volume
space when chanted loudly on your arrival at Nobu, in the One&Only
Cape Town. Chef Prajal Rana may be a newcomer to South Africa,
but not to the Nobu kitchen, having notched up nearly a decade with
them. The international brand is synonymous with creativity, precision,
attention to detail and excellent quality.

Immerse yourself in the main, multi-course or omakase menu, or take
a seat at the sushi bar. Sushi at Nobu is the real deal, an authentic
representation of a craft that requires many years to perfect. The
ultimate sushi – eel with avocado and tempura crumb on the outside –
will be topped with spicy prawn and chilli threads. The salad of baby
spinach with Parmesan, fried leek and dried miso with a ponzu and
truffle oil dressing is a reminder that fresh ingredients play a vital role
in the Nobu kitchen.

As the tempting tempura kingklip with melon and coriander is served,
sake will enter the equation. Not just any sake, the selection is as notable
as the wine spectrum. The spicy beef, seared with Peruvian ancho chilli,
can take its rightful place on the stage before one of the lip-smacking
desserts, like the Japanese cheesecake, seals the sweet deal.

Prajal prides himself on his unique culinary style, a union of the creative
craft and precise skill of a Nobu master. No surprise that his preference
is for Japanese cuisine, but Prajal states that other Asian countries and
their rich cultures such as Taiwan and Singapore, have influenced his
culinary journey. His environment, from nature to people, inspires him.

    It was a really nice experience, we had the tasting menu which was a good way to taste everything, the service was amazing, as far as Nobu experiences go you’ll pay for it. In Cape Town, which is known for food, there is a lot of competition.
