"Between wafers of wagyu and a few finicky inhospitable moments, we struggled to enjoy a meal at this new restaurant in Dublin's Docklands We may have been in the Wolf of Wall Street territory of Dublin's International Financial Services Centre, where billions change hands every day, but even so, a serving of the idolised Japanese wagyu, considered the Dom Pérignon of the beef world - four rasher-sized slivers at €92 - made me want to jump up and scream 'Emperor's new clothes!'"
"The new Japanese Yakiniku Matsukawa is an offshoot of chef Yu Uchida's dinky Matsukawa Sushi in D7 Smithfield - their 16-course omakase menu at €135 seeing them listed in the Michelin Guide. They expanded last September to D1 George's Dock with Matcha Matsukawa Café, followed recently by Yakiniku Matsukawa upstairs."
