Kumi (@kumilasvegas) featuring the talents of Executive chef Brandon Flores, is a modern Japanese restaurant infused with Korean flavors. The concept was opened by Chef Akira Back back in 2013. Back had worked with greats like Morimoto and Nobu, and his restaurants can be found all over the world, from Bali to Korea. Chef Back’s passion is creating culinary experiences that encourage diners to connect emotionally with the food. And he executed this beautifully, with Kumi. From the natural wood furniture and cherry blossom walls, to the dramatic sushi bar, the ambient beats and the colorful presentation of the food - it is a feast for the senses. Favorite dishes featured in order: 🍣 Wagyu Gyoza with a black garlic ponzu 🍸 Shiso-Rita Tequila/Cointreau/shiso/cucumber/agave/Togarashi 🍣 Bkuefin Tuna Pizza with truffle oil and ponzu aioli 🍣 Tuna Taco with taro chips, avocado cream, micro cilantro 🥩 Wagyu Ribeye with Japanese Sweet Potato topped with a smoked bacon and sweet chili Creme fraiche 🍰 Wagashi Tres Leches Cake with dulcey chocolate milk, condensed milk ice cream, Greek yogurt cremeux, ash cinnamon meringue It was the best meal I had on this trip and we loved every dish that came out. 📍3950 Las Vegas Blvd., Las Vegas, Nevada #kumilasvegas #mandalaybaylasvegas #kumibyakiraback #chefakiraback #chefsofinstagram #japanesefood #restaurants #bestrestaurants #eaterlasvegas #myvegas #vegasfoodies #foodbloggers #yum #sushi #lasvegas #lasvegasrestaurants #travelbloggers #farexpeditionsaz #plated #bestdishes #culinary #beautifulplates #foodporn #foodie (at Mandalay Bay Resort and Casino) https://www.instagram.com/p/CfuCZspJARl/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
