November 2, 2015: Mandarin Oriental, Munich is introducing the much acclaimed cuisine of internationally celebrated Chef Nobuyuki (Nobu) Matsuhisa with the opening of Matsuhisa restaurant in the hotel in late November. Destined to become the country’s chicest culinary hotspot, the restaurant will follow the same successful format as the original Matsuhisa in Beverly Hills and the chef’s five other exclusive outposts around the world.
Offering Chef Nobu’s renowned ‘New Style Japanese-Peruvian’ cuisine, the menu will feature signature dishes such as the legendary Black Cod and Yellowfin Tuna Sashimi with Jalapeños, alongside Grilled Lamb, cooked over Tealeaves, with Peruvian Anticucho Sauce, as well as traditionally prepared Sushi.
Matsuhisa, Munich will accommodate 95 guests and will also feature a semi-private dining space for up to 10 people. Guests can experience the essence of Nobu’s cuisine with ‘omakase’ – an innovative multi-course menu selected by the Chef on the day to surprise and delight guests. Furthermore, the restaurant will feature an exclusive eight-seat live cooking counter where the chef will prepare Nobu’s famous dishes directly for guests.
To complement the new restaurant, Mandarin Oriental, Munich will launch TheBar31, featuring a rounded stone bar with an oversized freestanding champagne cooler as its centrepiece. Elegantly designed with moss, bronze and petrol blue interiors, the bar will exude a sophisticated atmosphere that evolves from relaxed to vibrant as evening approaches. Cocktails made by head mixologist and bar manager, Doreen Philipp, will be served alongside delicious bar snacks, including signature Matsuhisa dishes.
Matsuhisa Munich will be open daily from 12.00 to 14.30, and 19.00 to 23.00. The Bar31 will be open daily from 12.00 to 1.00 (until 2.00 on Fridays and Saturdays).
