The new offerings include a dip caprese using seasonal lychee, and red shrimp marinated in jalapeno and lime, seasoned with a blend of Italian fish sauce and Japanese white soy sauce, all exquisite dishes born from a free-spirited approach unbound by genre. The refreshing aromas and flavors, a fusion of meticulous Japanese craftsmanship and Western essence, will make you forget the sweltering heat and bring surprise and delight to your everyday life.

[Product Introduction] A Refreshing Summer Assortment that Stimulates the Senses, Where Japanese and Western Elements Intersect

As a new challenge for "New Marco," we present creative appetizer menus that are refreshing and spicy, designed to blow away the summer heat. New Marco's unique approach, transcending the boundaries of Japanese, Western, and Chinese cuisine to skillfully combine the umami of ingredients, will make your usual drink even more special.

Emerald Eggplant and Jamón Serrano (800 yen)

A refreshing summer dish where juicy eggplant, infused with fragrant bonito and kelp dashi, is combined with the saltiness and umami of Jamón Serrano and the aroma of herbs, filling your mouth with flavor.

Stracciatella and Lychee Dip Caprese (900 yen)

A luxurious dish featuring "stracciatella," the creamy interior of the popular burrata cheese, and extra virgin olive oil. The seasonal lychee and Manganji pepper salsa refreshingly balance the richness of the cheese. Enjoy with our homemade focaccia.

Daisen Chicken Tikka (900 yen)

Daisen chicken cut into bite-sized pieces is marinated overnight in yogurt and several spices. Finished with a punchy flavor that is easy to eat even in a standing bar style. You can enjoy a refreshing change of taste with the accompanying raita (yogurt sauce).

Red Shrimp Marinated in Jalapeno and Lime (600 yen)

Large red shrimp are marinated with lime, using a blend of Italian fish sauce (colatura) and Japanese white soy sauce. This summery appetizer features a exquisite balance of the shrimp's natural sweetness, the deep umami of the two soy sauces, and the refreshing spiciness of jalapeno.
