When did unico riviera maya open12/24/2022 ![]() ![]() We used the same approach here and it didn't disappoint. We had asked the chef to surprise us with his favorites and it was amazing. It reminded me of a trip from 2018 when we travelled to Sandals Ochi in Jamaica. Once we finished with the Bento the sushi chef asked if we wanted anything else. My favorite was the spicy tuna roll which had a creamy sauce that complimented the fish. Started with a Bento Box which had an assortment of sushi and sashimi. Tonight's dinner was Asian at Mura House. A refreshing palate cleanser and great end to the meal. It had a passion fruit curd, sorbet, olive oil cake bites and a delicate lemony foam that complimented each other without being overly sweet. It had creamy, cold, savory and foamy elements. A cleverly composed dish whose signature flavor was passion fruit ( one of my favorite breakfast items from Breathless in Punta Cana). I didn't taste any of the mint mentioned on the menu - although I don't think I would have wanted to. Had all the flavors you would expect in a slow cooked short rib. It needed some sort of heat or spice to liven it up. The shrimp dish had mostly well cooked shrimp in a dashi broth (sort of a thin souplike roux). Maybe it was pureed into a mold and then sliced? Dressing complimented the fresh ingredients although I would have liked a bit more acid. Not sure how they got the s lices so thin. Beetroot was the star and it was well prepared. It is best described as a salad that eats like a soup. It had no flavor and the accompanied cocktail didn't have any spice either - just tomato and raspberry. It was nepales (tender cactus) on a tostada and served with a raspberry bloody mary. Tonight's dinner was a five course tasting menu from a two-star Michelin chef. ![]()
