Exquisite is the only word I can use to describe Clay.
I’ve been to this Peruvian spot in Adliya a few times now and am always blown away by this place. Beautiful interiors, plating to swoon over, views to match.
I love to bag one of the terrace seats to peer over and admire the hustle and bright lights of Adliya.
On my recent visit, I tried the Foie Gras Nigiri. A dish that made my mouth do a double back tuck with a triple twist. It was Olympic gymnast level stuff. Mind blowing. No, correct me. It was mind alteringly good.
What to drink & eat at Clay:
- To drink, dive right in and get the Clay Pisco with yuzu, pineapple basil foam and egg white.
- Maguro Taco with tuna & truffle oil. Perfect bites to whet the appetite.
- Foie Gras Nigiri, one of the most beautiful things I’ve eaten in a long time.
- Otoro Nigiri; dreamy belly fat tuna with caviar
- Ebi Shoga; prawn & ginger robatayaki skewers.
- Maguro Picante; crispy rice squares topped with tuna, spicy mayo, furikake and roe.
- For dessert, the Gashi Lucuma Lava is a must. A native fruit of Peru, this superfruit tastes like caramel.
One more Fifi tip… I prefer this spot for dinner a deux. Grab a friend or a SO and dine here, as the sliver of a terrace lends itself to small tables.
Enjoy!
