Roasted Soy and Brown Butter Taiyaki Buns, Butter-Poached Lobster Tail, Lobster Koji Butter, Pickled Onions, Japanese Mustard Greens. Wanted to try the Taiyaki sliders for a while; blew a bit of cash for this one (it costs $26++; pricier than our choice of main). While the Taiyaki Buns were a tad off being a little soft and limp (which resulted in the sliders to become a tad flimsy), lacking crispness up to the tail of the “fish”, we were glad the chunky lobster tail were fresh and carried the natural sweetness of crustaceans with a bite. The Lobster Koji Butter is also exceptional; provides the umami sensation that packs a punch. Could have been really perfect; just probably needs some work when it comes to the textural aspects of the Taiyaki bun.
