Nobu Doha

Chef Nobuyuki “Nobu” Matsuhisa’s blending of traditional Japanese dishes with Peruvian ingredients fits right into Doha’s international culinary scene. There are a handful of Nobu restaurants around the world and the Doha location is the largest, a freestanding shelllike beacon on its own pier in the Arabian Gulf. Inside, it is sleek, luxurious and has a spectacular view. It’s a memorable experience from start to finish, from the architecture to the excellent, knowledgeable service. There are many reasons to love Nobu’s signature dish, the black cod in miso—it’s sustainably fished, rich in flavour, silky in texture and deceptively simple. But the miso cod isn’t the only hero of Nobu, and might not even be your highlight. The foie gras shiitake dumplings (on the tapas menu) and the light and flawless whitefish sashimi are unmissable.
