🥩 Japanese Wagyu A4 Tagliatelle with Black Garlic –
The ultimate beef experience – authentic Japanese Wagyu with the complexity of black garlic
✨ Description
The A4 Wagyu Tagliatelle with Black Garlic is a dish that embodies the philosophy of “less is more” in the most luxurious version of meat eating . It is a fine piece of authentic Japanese A4 grade Wagyu , which has been cut to the ideal thickness for tagliatelle and has been marinated or rubbed with black garlic , a gourmet ingredient with natural sweetness and strong umami.
Grade A4 means:
- 
 
High level of marbling fat (BMS 6–8)
 - 
Absolutely soft texture that literally melts in your mouth
 - 
Thin, balanced fat veins that dissolve with heat
 
Black garlic , naturally matured at controlled humidity and temperature, is nothing like raw garlic – its flavor is mild, with notes of caramel, balsamic, and plum .
This combination creates a unique gastronomic experience: luxurious, balanced, aromatic .
