Here's a rough idea of what to expect at the new-ish chef's counter/omakase offering at CA Grill. Just the pics for now; I do have a few uninteresting thoughts/more info but I'll add them later in another post.


Menu:

Complimentary pour of this flavored sparkling sake, infused with rosehips and hibiscus:

Squid salad:
[can't remember/read my notes: julienned smoked? squid, lobster claw/knuckle meat, spiced teriyaki sauce, ginger, scallion?]

Tako nigiri with eel sauce:

Crunchy bone marrow, sesame wagyu beef tartare, red onion marmalade:
[same jam as duck in all its glory, mango in the tartare]

Tuna tempura Malibu with sesame dressing:
[jicama, halibut, spiced sesame sauce; I think this used to be on the regular CA Grill menu, except here it's toro]

[No pic of the oysters; 3? EC oysters; a bit like Rockefeller w/ panko, mango, ginger]


"Surf & Turf" seared wagyu beef roll with lobster, eringi mushrooms, wasabi tobiko aioli:

WOW! Thanks for sharing these pictures. This is on the top of our "to do" list. I'm interested in your thoughts when you have time to post.
 
Your menu is identical to mine that I had yesterday evening & am in the middle of reviewing on my trip report.

It seems they gave you smaller portions but that is probably a smarter idea.

Hrmph, it's surprising that the menus would be the same. When I was there a few weeks earlier than you, they said it was already the 3rd iteration since opening.
