Unbelievably Prague‘s Four Seasons has a rooftop terrace with most probably the best view in Prague and didn‘t put it to use (other than morning Yoga sessions) for years… Luckily one of their chefs had the idea to use it for a Japanese fusion pop-up restaurant in summertime, which was a wonderful idea:
Set on a very beautiful rooftop terrace with a Japanese garden and the most beautiful views on to Charles Bridge and the Prague castle this is an absolute gem! Service and attention was fabulous and the atmosphere with only 4 tables is unique.
The menu is a 7 course degustation menu of Japanese cuisine with Italian fusion inspirations. Each course consists of several small dishes. The concept is great but the quality and level of elaboration of the individual dishes shows a wide range: While some dishes are absolutely spectacular and on par level with other fine dining restaurants worldwide (Nobu, Asia de Cuba, Zuma…), e.g. the black cod or the Calpis panna cotta, others lack inspiration and taste, e.g. the Tofu in tempura and yet others are of great quality but a bit unfortunate in their combination (poached oyster with mango salad, cold white spaghetti with hamachi carpaccio)…
But all in all a great dining experience in an impeccable atmosphere, a terrific view and excellent service!
