For some heat, the fried chicken is a solid, spicy choice featuring tender and juicy chicken glazed in duck fat chili caramel.
Maitake Mushroom
Teriyaki, Brown Butter Crumb, Tofu Hummus, Scallion Oil
Rich umami flavours shine in this dish, with teriyaki and a brown butter crumb enhancing the meaty texture of the maitake mushrooms.

Each dish brings a thoughtful mix of flavours and textures, making this menu worth trying.
