Where Tradition Meets Craft: The Omakase Experience at Kasumigaseki
An intimate culinary journey blending Japanese precision with seasonal artistry
Dubai, July 2025 — Step into the serene world of Kasumigaseki, where tradition meets artistry and every dish is a dialogue between chef, season, and ingredient. Rooted in the timeless discipline of Japanese culinary heritage, Kasumigaseki invites guests to embrace the philosophy of Omakase, to surrender the meal to the chef’s expertise and allow each course to unfold as a carefully considered surprise.
Crafted by Chef Keigo Abe, whose culinary mastery is shaped by years in Japan’s most revered kitchens, the Omakase journey at Kasumigaseki is designed to awaken the senses and restore a sense of presence. Each element on the plate reflects balance, purity, and intentionality, an elegant reflection of the season’s finest ingredients and the chef’s daily inspiration.
Guests may choose between two experiences:
- The Signature Omakase Full Course (AED 1000 per person), a comprehensive ten-course tasting designed to highlight a full spectrum of flavor, technique, and craftsmanship.
- The Omakase Short Course (AED 750 per person), a refined yet succinct journey through seasonal highlights and culinary precision.
While the exact menu remains undisclosed, in keeping with the spirit of Omakase, guests can expect a harmonious progression of textures and temperatures: perhaps a delicately steamed custard to start, followed by hand-formed sushi, charcoal-grilled delicacies, and soul-warming broth. No two evenings are exactly the same, and that is the beauty of it.
To elevate the journey further, beverage pairings – both alcoholic (AED 500) and non-alcoholic (AED 300),are available, thoughtfully matched to complement the flow of the meal with subtle nuance.
For those who prefer a more structured experience, the Toriwake Set (AED 550 per person) offers a curated selection of Kasumigaseki favorites, served in a set menu format. From fresh sashimi to fire-grilled salads and comforting yakisoba, it delivers balance and flavor for diners seeking refinement with familiarity.
Whether you seek an immersive culinary ritual or a quiet dining escape, Kasumigaseki’s Omakase experience offers more than a meal, it offers a moment of stillness, mastery, and trust.
