Mabo - Review - Park Cities - Dallas - The Infatuation
"When the curtain goes up at this serene, minimalist eight-seat restaurant, you'll start one of the best and most singular dining experiences in Dallas—and the city’s only yakitori omakase. The $200 menu runs for about 12 courses, and changes often, but starters might include an uni-spiked mushroom chawanmushi that eats like silky custard. Or toasted milk bread topped with a mountain of creamy chicken liver pate that might be the best open-faced sandwich you’ll ever have. Consider the six-piece sashimi course a cooling palate cleanser before the parade of charcoal-grilled chicken begins. The soy-glazed skewered meats—muscular heart, crispy jowl—vary in texture and flavor, but each bite is like a new showcase for what the chef can do with the humble bird." - Kevin Gray
