I recently had the opportunity to capture some of the dishes at Arata, Matthew Kenney’s culinary incubator at The Gothic in Belfast Maine.  The menu features plant-based ramen noodles, steamed buns, small plates and desserts inspired by Far East flavours.  Featured here:

1. Arata Ramen | pulled mushrooms | baby bok choy | sea palm | corn puree 

2. Maine Potato | Maine coast seaweed | kimchi vinaigrette 

3. Toasted Sesame Cheesecake | candied lemon  4. Smashed Cucumber | scallion | togarashi | almonds
