Beef Sashimi in any Dublin Restaurants?

Talliesin

Another thread has given me a terrible craving for beef sashimi. Mmmm, yum!

Anyone know anywhere with it on the menu?

beef sashimi is basically carpaccio, so any decent italian restaurant should have it on the menu...or you could go to a french restaurant and get a steak tartare. To be fair, i love both, but can't remember when i last had some here.

come to think of it i've never actually seen beef sashimi called like that or served. Do they sell it in japanese restaurant or is it something done in korean or other asian restaurants?

Cibo above the Pier house in Howth do it as a starter. The menu is very reasonable too.

I was with Tallie when we had this in a Japanese restaurant (that served all non sushi Japanese food and specialised in gyoza) in Canada.

I can catagorically state that it is nothing like beef carpaccio at all. It was very finely sliced steak which had been marinated and spiced in some delicious way, served in a sort of structured heap (probably tipped out of a mould) with a raw quail's egg on top and some finely sliced spring onion.

I could have eaten it all day, it was quite possibly one of the most delicious things I've ever tried.

Carpaccio is also very yummy, but not much like beef sashimi.

Hmm. Now I want carpaccio and beef sashimi

At least carpaccio is easy to get though.

If you like these then you should try to have sashimi chicken if you're ever in Japan...I did think twice but it was very tasty!

i had lama carpaccio out in argentina. it was probably more like sashimi as it wasn't thinly sliced, more like 6 raw one minute steaks. was delicious though

I'm sure that I had beef sashimi at Aya in Sandyford.
