What?
Following on from the success of last year’s inaugural European World of Nobu event, the legendary Chef Nobu Matsuhisa has organised a two-day food festival to celebrate the release of his final cookbook World of Nobu. On 23 November, guests are invited to join Chef Nobu on a culinary journey featuring recipes from 13 of his executive chefs from Nobu restaurant locations around the world including Milan, Monte Carlo, Marbella, Barcelona, The Bahamas and Doha as well as Nobu London and Nobu Berkeley Square.
The following day ticketholders can enjoy a 7-course Omakase tasting menu alongside Chef Nobu and his team of chefs from around the globe. Guests will be welcomed with a champagne reception followed by a sit-down meal, as well as being treated to a signed copy of Chef Nobu Matsuhisa’s cookbook to take home.
Since opening its doors in 1987, iconic sushi palace Nobu has spawned a global empire, becoming a Hollywood mainstay in the process. Nobu Matsuhisa began his career as a restaurateur in Peru, where he first established the Japanese fusion cuisine he’s become known for worldwide. He later moved to L.A. which is where he opened his first restaurant, Matsuhisa, which quickly attracted the attention of Robert De Niro – who went on to become one of Nobu’s business partners. Nobu now have more than 30 restaurants around the world, plus a collection of high-end hotels, with a number of new openings in the pipeline for 2019.
