And rounding out a week of places that it has taken me far too long to return to is Shuko. So many fantastic dishes on this menu and despite the length I never felt like it was too much. With so many similar concepts opening in NY which could conceivably become copycats, I appreciate that none feel that way. And as wacky as it still sounds, the apple pie dessert continues to be so incredibly good.
A multitude of fantastic reviews have already been written about Shuko and as I wholeheartedly agree with all of them I won’t bother repeating what has already been said. As suggested by others we opted for the longer Kaiseki menu for the first visit. I look forward to returning to try the shorter omakase menu. Unfortunately no menu and most of the courses came so quickly that I wouldn’t have been able to keep up even if I was writing them down.
