Morimoto Asia is the restaurant of the famous Iron Chef, Masaharu Morimoto. You may know him from the Iron Chef television show. Morimoto Asia serves modern pan-asian food. Normally I’m more of a meat and potatoes kind of guy, but I did like the pan-Asian food at Yak & Yeti. So, maybe Dad is a fan of pan-asian as well!
Morimoto Asia
Disney refers to the Iron Chef’s restaurant as a “culinary journey across Asia.” What you’re getting here is Iron Chef Morimoto’s take on various types of Asian food. Ok, so maybe pan-asian isn’t just Chinese food. The restaurant mentioned Chinese, Japanese, and Korean foods. If that sounds good to you, make sure to check out this Disney Springs location.
What to Expect
Morimoto Asia really is beautifully themed. From the large 20-foot-long chandeliers to the modern fine dining feel. The restaurants of Disney Springs really go do all out, and Morimoto Asia is no exception!
The outside stands out even with all the impressive buildings at Disney Springs. It’s really something to look at! There is an exhibition kitchen where you can watch chefs prepare the food. There’s even a rack where the cooked ducks are kept, much like an actual Asian restaurant. This place is pretty cool!
The Iron Chef provides a lot of options as well. From the main restaurant to the lounge to the outdoor Street Food options, there is a lot to taste and see! While there is a kids menu available, this might be a good time to leave the kids at home so you can take in all the ambiance. Plus, Morimoto Asia isn’t cheap.
