Kuro
Up for Asian cuisine? Find this Japanese-inspired dining and drinking hub on Kent Street.
Although not entirely new – KURO was one of our favourite new restaurants in 2019 – they’ve recently evolved switching from an a la carte menu to exclusively offering premium chef’s set menus. KURO and their sister venue Kahii – coffee shop and Kissaten by day and wine bar by night – represent a contemporary Japanese-inspired dining and drinking hub in a heritage-listed building on Kent Street. The Michelin-trained chef creates the two menus to highlight technical expertise, seasonal ingredients and Japanese tradition. The two set menus change daily with chef Teramoto taking a trip to the market to personally pick ingredients each day but as a rule the set menus include shared snacks and entrees, a choice of main and dessert.
KURO’s small bar which offers just six seats, also serves over 30 cocktails poured perfectly by Fumi Michishita, one of Japan’s best mixologists or guests can drink in drops from 200+ strong wine lists that feature predominantly boutique, minimal intervention drops from local Australian producers or Japanese beers, whiskies and spirits.
