Omakase: You may already be familiar with this Japanese dining concept, which quite literally translates to “I’ll leave it up to you”. During this culinary journey, your meal options are out of your hands and in those of the chef. This is where the chef’s creativity truly shines, with the ultimate carte blanche to play around with seasonal ingredients and conceptual ideas.
Unsurprisingly, omakase has now infiltrated other cuisines as well, allowing chefs to experiment with innovative dishes, as well as quirky, unconventional dining experiences.
Here are five of our favourite omakase experiences that offer more than just great food.
