Tuna Tartare

Celia Sin-Tien Cheng

This is one of the best tuna tartares I’ve ever had! Perfectly well-balanced, and reminds me of really good poke in Hawaii — fresh fish, precisely seasoned (not like the cheap fast food poke trends that have popped up all over New York City recently). Flora Bar’s tuna is finely diced, which imparts a different mouthfeel than larger tartare chunks, and potato chips add texture. Initially, I was apprehensive about the truffles, but love that the truffle flavor adds umami but does not overpower the dish. This a refined, restrained, and exceptional tartare experience.
