Seared Tuna

Celia Sin-Tien Cheng

The seared tuna with wasabi tartar sauce and salad came highly recommended by the waiter and it was a lovely way to start the evening — even before the veggie sticks — with something light, refreshing, and balanced in flavor. Seared tuna can often be a bore these days, but the wasabi tartar sauce jazzed it up with a nice subtle touch. The last appetizer we shared was the black mussels & clams, steamed in garlic and white wine, and it was a bit lackluster as neither the clams nor the mussels were meaty or juicy enough.
