Everyone eagerly anticipated their first taste of the exquisite Wagyu beef imported all the way from Japan. Food influencers from Jeddah were also in attendance, ready to capture and share the magic of these succulent beef dishes.

The culinary mastermind behind the kitchen was none other than Chef Taki Sato, leading the talented team from Wakame. The service, on the other hand, was expertly handled by the folks at Brioche. Picture this: a carefully crafted menu featuring three tantalizing appetizers and two mouthwatering main dishes. To add a touch of excitement, Chef Taki also treated the audience to a captivating cooking show, revealing the secrets behind his delectable wagyu sushi creation.

First up was the dry-aged Wagyu beef carpaccio, adorned with truffle and an unforgettable sauce. It was a flavor explosion that left everyone yearning for more. Next, the wagyu sushi took center stage, its beef lightly torched to perfection. The crowd couldn’t resist the delicate and flavorful beef taco that followed, packed with perfectly cooked wagyu beef cubes.

Now, let’s dive into the main course extravaganza! A heavenly wagyu slider stole the spotlight, boasting a flawlessly cooked patty with crispy edges and a melt-in-your-mouth interior. No unnecessary distractions, just pure, unadulterated beefy bliss. And finally, the grand finale—a beautifully medium-cooked steak that seemed to dissolve like butter on the tongue.
