Using the training I received at Izakaya Yuzuki, and utilizing the help of our friends Yuri and Dave we present to you a 5 course plant-based omakase.
We'll be using umami rich ingredients and long fermentation to create deep flavors that support the vibrance of fresh spring produce.
Bring some sake or ice-cold Asahi, and come say hi!
