Opening today, Tiger Lane welcomes diners to experience authentic Japanese cooking at their second eatery, Inari.
Borrowing its namesake from the Japanese ‘god of rice’, Inari is the signature restaurant of Tiger Lane’s own ‘Sushi Shaman’, Shaun Presland. Just one of a handful of gaijn that have been enthusiastically welcomed into the world of Japanese cuisine, Presland has had a resounding effect on the Japanese dining scene across Australia and beyond.
Exploring traditional Japanese dishes fused with Peruvian influence, the menu is centred around locally sourced seafood and includes hero dishes such as 52 miso tooth-fish, dynamite roll with 7 pepper and chilli soy marinated tuna and quail Kara-age.
Paying homage to Japanese 1960s retrofuturism and when society transformed and lost constraints from tradition, the restaurant’s layout is balanced by a restrained and nostalgic colour palette, creating a space that feels grown up and fun all at once.
“Inari encourages you to leave restraint at the door and pull down your mask for a dining experience interlaced with entertainment and wonder,” says Presland.
Joining Presland and the Inari team as Head Chef is Maria Sheslow. Fresh from the ranks at Sydney’s prestigious Bay Nine Omakase, Sheslow brings 13 years of experience in some of Australia’s most well-known kitchens.
From today, Inari will be open for lunch on Friday and Saturday and dinner on Wednesday to Saturday. From Saturday 21 January, Inari will open for lunch and dinner 7 days a week.
