MOZen Bistro @ Mandarin Oriental
Walking into the Mandarin Oriental I was overwhelmed by the simple beauty of the décor. Red was the theme and I love Red!
We headed up to the bistro and after arriving and checking out the menu - I would say that they represent Asian fusion cuisine. We noshed on some raw tuna, raw salmon and spicy tuna rolls for our appetizer. They were delectable. We started with the Salad Caprese and for our main courses Georges ordered the 72 Hour Kobe Short Rib and I had the Halibut. Both dishes were very tasty. I cannot say that the food was THE best, however, it was very good. Things seemed to happen so fast as I was on a company dinner that, unfortunately, I did not take the time to savor the dishes. If we go back again, I would probably check out the Indian offerings they had – I believe we missed out on the lamb… the trio of desserts was an okay touch – the crème brulee was okay – not the best (I am sorry to say that because I wanted it to be fantastic).
To finish our night… as suggested by the elevator gentleman, we headed on up to the 23rd floor to check out the amazing views the lounge area offered. I advise you do the same – up there I believe is also the check in area for the hotel.
