Smoked mackerel with fresh herbs and leaves on a bed of udon with a sensationally good sauce
A cold dish that was 'so vividly flavoured, and yet also so fresh and (thanks to the veg) so sharply green-tasting, that it added up to a perfect winter cheerer-up.' The noodles had 'a mystifying depth of flavour and a perfect texture'.
Strong, consistent praise across multiple sources.
