One of the highlights of our San Francisco vacation was to have been dinner at Benu, the recipient of 3 Michelin stars, which instantly made me want to eat there.I'm not a huge Asian food fan. I like noodle-y things and egg rolls - that's pretty much my experience with it. My husband, however, was so stinkin excited. I did this for him. Compromises, ya know? And those 3 stars definitely made it easier to agree. The meal started off with 7 small delicacies. Don't ask me what those were LOL. But then the MEAL meal started:Xiao long bao soup dumpling with homemade soy sauce and vinegar - this was great! The soy sauce was aged 5 years. In fact, outside the restaurant in barrels, they are aging soy as we speak.Chilled fresh noodles with dungeness crabcucumber and perilla - I did not dislike but it just wasn't my thing. Maybe if it had been warm. Short grain rice seasoned with green onion, spicy caviar, salted pollock roe and sesame, roasted rock seaweedBraised baby abalone (3) with potato puree and spinachMonkfish liver and lobster sausage, leek mille-feuille, spicy lobster sauce, aromatic herbsCharcoal-grilled beef rib braised and topped with cabbage kimchi, fresh oyster, oyster leafFried rabbit and liver soondae, wood ear, cilantro, sweet and sour rabbit jus - the server did ask if my husband wanted to rabbit head as well; he said "yes" but later said he just couldn't do - it was too much staring into the head of a rabbit. Omija berry sorbet with olive oilMilk pudding with a caramel sauce smoked with peatSo I might be the wrong person to say this, but my husband, who is better suited, felt the same way: Benu was a nice experience, but not a 3-star Michelin experience in our opinion. The food was good if you like upscale Asian. However, it was mostly centered on the appearance of the food than the flavor of the food. Now, the food was absolutely beautiful. Plated and presented lovingly. Service was outstanding. Bidets in the bathroom (which was literally my high point) but none of the food left us feeling ahhhhhh, so good. The soup dumplings were the highlight. I can see where some people would absolutely be blown away, but this was just not what we were looking for.
