Abu Dhabi’s Favourite Japanese concept launches a selection of dishes for the season
Abu Dhabi’s fine-dining favourite, 99 Sushi Bar & Restaurant, located in The Galleria, Al Maryah Island, is proud to announce the launch of a lavish selection of brand new dishes, for the season of Fuyu (winter). The latest additions offer guests a specially-curated selection of uniquely delicious options to indulge in, promising to satisfy the cravings of any Japanese-cuisine aficionados around the Capital.
Highlights include the tender Rib Eye gently seasoned with black pepper and a side of garlic chips, including an option of Australian Wagyu or the Japanese Kobe Grade A5. A true feat of flavour and a seafood lovers must-try is the Sakane Nabe - featuring a sauteed fish selection in a bouillabaisse made of yellow chili, mussels and foie. The Dragonfly Maki boasts classic flavours with the essential 99 twist, served with crispy and flattered prawns drizzled with a spicy and creamy sauce. For a true gourmet experience, bite into the Tori Maki, soy marinated chicken with tangy mango vinaigrette and crisp rice wafer. Guaranteed to leave a smile on the faces of diners, the Toro Tartar is a must-have - fatty tuna belly served generously with caviar, along with soy sauce and wasabi to deliver a memorable contemporary delicacy.
