About this dish
Three langoustines roasted until just tender and served with a rich sake-infused butter sauce. The sauce is offering a clean umami flavor that balances the richness of the shellfish. Fresh chervil and chives add a light, herbal finish to the dish. The langoustine legs have been removed and incorporated in the sauce to infuse flabor. This dish is ready to be gently reheated; the sauce is stabilized to ensure it stays smooth and creamy when warmed.

Reviews
"Those langoustines were incredibly fresh, perfectly cooked. The sake butter is a brilliant combination, not too heavy but super flavorful and original. I don't usually order these kinds of fancy things, but this was actually quite reasonably priced. Really worth trying!"
