Named after the Michelin-starred celebrity chef who helms the kitchen, Akira Back at the JW Marriott serves up fine Japanese cuisine with Korean accents. With the well-lit interior, plush upholstery, and tasteful decor, this spot is a paragon of fine dining and testament to their commitment of providing a dining experience to delight all the senses.

Meat lovers will love the 48 Hours Sanchoku Short Ribs. Made with premium Wagyu short ribs, the meat is slow cooked to tender perfection. Served with just the accompanying braising jus and some plain steamed vegetables, this dish is delightfully flavoured and melts in the mouth with the first bite. The Yukhoe is another excellent meat dish. Made with the “Tajima” Wagyu striplin, this is chef Akira’s take on the Korean Yukhoe, and it is presented like a Maki roll wrapped in Nashi. The sesame and beef pair perfectly and make for a hearty main.

Prefer some treasures of the sea? Be sure to indulge in the Tuna Pizza, where the luscious tuna is arranged delicately in the shape of a wheel. With a generous helping of creamy aioli and earthy truffle oil, this dish offers the perfect flavours. (June 2019)
