Arakawa, on Ross Street in Benowa, is a modern Japanese restaurant at RACV Royal Pines Resort. With a name meaning ‘wild river’, Arakawa blends tradition and innovation seamlessly, transforming every visit into a meticulously curated culinary and beverage journey. Prepare for an immersive experience the moment you walk through the door - vibrant murals depict Japanese women in traditional attire, evoking a sense of grace and movement, bringing a piece of Japanese customs to the Gold Coast. Start with scallops, truffle soy butter and shimeji, before plates from the grill such as saikyo miso salmon with hajikami ginger, pickled kohlrabi and sides of steamed rice and warm vegetables. Perhaps chicken yakitori skewers hit the mark, best enjoyed with kipfler potatoes and charred cabbage salad.
