THE CONNOISSEURSANA Fine Dining & Bar
Dining pleasure presented by THE CONNOISSEURS
To ANA, a "Connoisseur" is the embodiment of the ultimate host: someone with great knowledge in entertaining your palate.
With the professional expertise of master chefs, beverage specialists and ANA chefs, we open new frontiers in the art of dining 30,000 feet in the sky. Welcome to the finest dining experience, only available on ANA.
Each of the dishes is painstakingly prepared with carefully selected winter ingredients that deliver depth of flavor. To provide a taste of the New Year, the "Sakizuke" (starter) for January is a shochikubai dish that combines elements of pine, bamboo and plum—plants traditionally considered symbols of happiness. The abalone is sculpted into a pinecone shape, and is served with Swiss chard dressed in the style of a traditional Japanese New Year's pine decoration and a plum blossom-shaped carrot slice. In February, the luxurious "Otsukuri" (sashimi selection) dish is a generous helping of tiger puffer fish served with sweet napa cabbage in ponzu vinegar. Also in February, the "Shusai" (main course) is oysters in béchamel sauce wrapped and fried in cornhusk to provide a fragrant aroma, and this is served together with Wagyu sirloin steak.

The fish main is grilled John Dory with blue cheese semolina croquettes, while the meat main is a rare dish of baby veal loin topped with an aromatic black sesame seed crust.

Nama-fu shigure (wheat gluten cooked down with soy sauce) and taro croquette served with yuba-wrapped vegetable paste
This innovative, time-consuming dish showcases vegetables at their prime in winter. The wheat gluten is cooked down steadily with sweet and spicy flavors and combined with the fluffy texture of the taro to make a croquette. A mild vegetable paste is then wrapped in yuba (tofu skin) and seasoned with a herb butter for richness of flavor. This is then finished with a tamari soy-balsamic sauce to make a standout plate with a superb overall flavor profile that captures the essence of Japanese cuisine.
