Tomahawk, the halal restaurant for exceptional meats in Courbevoie

For the gourmets who love good meat, here is an address to discover in the Hauts-de-Seine. Let's go in the direction of Courbevoie, not far from La Défense, to push the doors of Tomahawk, a halal restaurant that will delight carnivorous appetites. Here, you will find a menu that knows how to play with our guilty pleasures, highlighting quality and exceptional meats including wagyu beef as well as various cooking methods. On the menu, grilled meats, burgers, smoked or matured meats: here, carnivorous desires are satisfied by a fusion cuisine. Note that the restaurant also offers a children's menu including a dish, a dessert and a drink for 13€.

To accompany your tasting, you will find a wide choice of drinks through a 100% alcohol-free menu with many alternatives. Instead of wine, we find for example the aperitifs imagined by Le Petit Béret, while on the cocktail side, we reveal non-alcoholic recipes that do not lack creativity.

For starters, we find an inventive menu, offering refined plates with Asian inspirations, but not only. Gua Bao, Burrata with truffle, guacamole, briskett balls... so many delicacies to share (or not) as an introduction to this gourmet meal. For lovers of matured meat, there is no way to miss the Nigiri crispy (16€), a reinvented sushi served by three, with a nice balance of texture with a breaded rice cake, arancini-style, topped with matured and lacquered rubia gallega, all covered with black fungus mushrooms and fried onions. A miso and yakinuku mayo sauce is added to the dish.

Then, it's time to get into the heart of the matter with meat dishes. If the prices are relatively high for dinner (the menu is more affordable for lunch), the quality is there. For smoked meat lovers, the Black Angus briskets (35€) will make your mouth water.

Smoked for 12 hours, these thin slices of breast literally melt in your mouth. Grilled meat lovers, we don't miss the Black Angus Picanha (39€), braised in such a way as to offer us this almost crispy side on the outside while keeping a juicy heart with a thin layer of fat. If we want to indulge our guilty pleasures, we'll opt for fries and homemade mashed potatoes as side dishes.

The dessert will be the big surprise of this meal, on the one hand by the staging with great recourse to dry ice, but also by the finesse of the 100% home-made creations. The Tomahawk Millefeuille (15€) is a real regressive treat with a crunchy praline as we like it, a creamy mousseline topped with a mascarpone chantilly.

For those who would rather finish on a fresh note, the Coconut (14€), served in a half coconut could be the right option with its soft sponge cake covered with a coconut cream and mango coulis. In both cases, we were able to taste sweets that were not very sweet and at the same time greedy and light enough not to weigh us down after a copious dinner.
