* Black cod saikyo yaki. This is Nobu’s signature black cod in a miso marinade, and a throwback to the cuisine upon which he builds his foundation. Excess water in the black cod is drawn out through the long marinating, leaving a texture with more bite, a sharpness accentuated by the sting of the salty miso.
