Why Zuma diners are making a beeline for Hidemasa

Flaunting the holy dining trinity of authentic yet innovative food curation, stellar service, and exceptional ambiance, Japanese restaurant Hidemasa has taken the premium dining landscape of Dubai by storm, and rightly so! With Japanese-born, Italian and French-trained Chef Yamamoto at the helm, his namesake Hidemasa has become a foodie pilgrimage of sorts since it opened its gates.


The imaginative menu of this luxe destination is also curated by Chef Yamamoto himself and features a line-up of traditional Japanese recipes with a bit of innovative flair.


The dedication behind coming together of each dish on the menu is quite evident from the use of the highest quality ingredients flown in directly from Japan to retain the authenticity of flavor.


Their curation of dishes is impeccable, making it extremely difficult to zero in on one best option, but if you do find yourself in the vicinity of DIFC, here are the top 5 delish preparations from the house of Hidemasa that you have got to try:


1. Yukiyama Grilled Ceasar Salad

Hidemasa’s rendition of this classic salad featuring a melange of baby gem lettuce, water bamboo, beef prosciutto, and sardine chips is the perfect dish to start your gastronomic journey, which because of its fresh flavors, tastes just like summer on a plate.


2. Sushi & Sashimi

It’s a no-brainer that an authentic Japanese dining escapade is incomplete without Sushi. Their Signature Chef's Selection (with nine kinds of different sashimis) and the Sushi platter (with nine kinds of Omakase Nigri) are simply divine and every sushi lover’s dream come true!


3. Claypots

Our favorites from their ‘Claypot Mains’ selection are Wagyu Beef Claypot Rice (featuring braised Wagyu beef, ginger rice, and Arima Sansho Pepper) and Snow Crab Claypot Rice (with Kinshi egg, mushroom, and fresh truffle oil).


4. Shiogama Sea Bass

A treat for every seafood lover, Hidemasa’s Sea Bass is a revelation! With ingredients sourced from the city of Shiogama in Japan, this delectable delight features a melange of playful textures and flavors that complement each other so well, resulting in a sensational gastronomic experience!


5. Matcha Tiramisu with Mandarin Sorbet

This premium dining destination, as expected, has a plump curation to appease any sweet treat aficionado. But if you have room for only one dessert, we highly recommend trying their Matcha Tiramisu with Mandarin Sorbet. The light, airy, and sinfully indulgent indulgence, in its own right, is simply art.


This sought-after gourmet venue also offers an array of curated dining experiences for diners. Their Corporate Lunch is live on weekdays from 12 PM to 3 PM and is priced just at AED 110 per person.


With a menu boasting 17 delectable dishes, from Sake Carpaccio to Charcoal Grilled Wagyu Beef, Hidemasa’s Corporate Lunch is a symphony of Japanese flavours and a testament to Chef Yamamoto’s culinary mastery.
